Yachthouse Residence Club is a complex of twin skyscrapers in the coastal city of Balneário Camboriú, Santa Catarina, southern Brazil. At 281 metres (922 feet) and 81 floors, the two buildings are the second tallest in Brazil and the third-tallest in South America (third only to Gran Torre Santiago in Chile and One Tower in Brazil) since they topped out in 2020, surpassing Infinity Coast, located in the same city.[1] However, construction continued until 2023.[2]
Construction[edit]
The building's construction involved about 600 workers and 87,000 square metres (940,000 sq ft) of concrete. The outrigger technique was employed.[2]
Extreme sports[edit]
Owing to its height, Yachthouse has become, even before its completion, a preferred site for extreme sports. In November 2017, basejumpers from all across Brazil reunited to jump from a 180-metre (590 ft) height.[3] In January 2021, wingsuit enthusiasts used the building for their practice.[4]
