Buyers have purchased about 45 percent of the condo units inside Arabella since Randall Davis Co. began presales in April. The project — which will be built near the River Oaks District, a high-end retail development from San Diego-based OliverMcMillan — is expected to be completed in January 2018.
“Our sales have been really good,” Randall Davis said. “Our location is A+ with the River Oaks District and the iPic movie theater getting ready to open next month. People are attracted to the building.”
Arabella, which was designed by Houston-based Powers Brown Architecture, will feature 10-foot-tall sections of fritted glass windows — the bottom two feet of which will be spotted with white dots — that will give the building the appearance of floating white clouds, Davis said. It’s a design cue borrowed from some of renowned architect Frank Gehry and Richard Meier’s high-rise projects in New York City, he added.
The base of Arabella will look like a jewel box, similar to the new Baccarat Hotel in New York City, Davis said. The podium-style tower will have parking on the bottom floors, an amenity deck on the eighth floor and residences starting on the ninth floor.
