Two Roads Development and Alpha Blue Ventures have landed a $121.5 million construction loan for the development of Forté, a 24-story waterfront luxury condominium tower anticipated to rise at 1309 South Flagler Drive in West Palm Beach. Designed by Bernardo Fort-Brescia of Arquitectonica, with interiors  by Jean-Louis Deniot, the project is planned to yield 41 expansive luxury residences; sales have done exceptionally well with nearly 60% sold prior to commencing construction. Units will come in three-and four-bedroom floor plans ranging from 4,200 to 8,400 square feet, and a six-bedroom penthouse spanning 8,900 square feet, priced from $6.7 million to $30 million.

The development site is comprised of 3 interior lots owned by Flagler Residential LLC, an entity linked to Two Roads Development, located on South Flagler Drive parallel to the western frontage of the Intracoastal Waterway and bordered by Currie Crescent on the west.

“Closing this loan with Bank OZK is a significant milestone for our team and the broader West Palm Beach residential market,” said James Harpel, Chairman and Senior Partner of Two Roads Development. “Forté’s waterfront location, combined with Bernardo Fort-Brescia’s sophisticated design and the equity we’ve built through strong pre-construction sales, have created a powerful combination that puts us in the position to secure favorable financing.”
