Poblado – Reserva de Curinca
Poblado – Reserva de Curinca is a new 320-unit apartment complex in Santa Marta. The complex is ideally located in a highly valued sector of the city with easy access to public transport. Residents will enjoy the complex’s amenities, including a swimming pool, gym, social room, BBQ terrace, game room, and soccer field.
The apartment complex’s five towers were designed to conserve natural resources, allowing residents to save on utility bills and live more environmentally friendly lifestyles. LED lighting, lighting controls, and low-flow plumbing fixtures will be used to reduce the towers’ energy and water use.
The developer of the project, Constructora Bolívar, has led the Colombian market in the development of urban housing projects for all income levels for more than 30 years. The company is committed to sustainable construction that not only conserves natural resources, but also generates value for its clients. Constructora Bolívar has also certified 127 Living, 176 Park, Arboleda del Campestre-Laurel, Nordika, Prado Park, Park Living, Senderos de Reserva de Curinca, and Lunaria.
Poblado – Reserva de Curinca has received an EDGE Advanced certificate from CAMACOL.
