Costanera Center

Through this mega project, Cencosud is introducing the concept of “neo-urbanism” which involves having technologically compatible areas in our cities, which are in tune with the interconnected world we live in today. The designs used, promote energy conservation and favor the centralization of activities so as to keep roads clear and promote pedestrian spaces.

Costanera Center constitutes an investment of about US$ 500 million and it has a built area of more than 700,000 m2 in a plot of land that is 47,000 m2. This construction will house the highest shopping center in Chile with more than 300 stores, a Jumbo hypermarket, an EASY home improvement store, a Santa Isabel supermarket, Paris, Ripley and Falabella department stores, a large food court, an area with restaurants and cafés, 12 movie theaters, an Aventura Center with bowling alleys, medical and health centers, a gym and a five-level parking space for 4,500 vehicles.

One of the things that stands out about this project are the four big towers that will house the offices of important national and international companies and 4 and 5 stars hotels.

The Big Costanera Tower will be 300 meters high; four times taller than the World Trade Center. This tower was designed by the internationally acclaimed architect Cesar Pelli who specializes on skyscrapers (buildings above 100 meters high) and is the designer of the Petronas Towers, one of Malaysia’s most important icons, and the World Financial Center in Hong Kong, which makes him one of the most important and well-known architects worldwide.
