Prata Riverside Village, Luxury moved to Lisbon's riverside

Prata Riverside Village is a project conceived two decades ago and now finally sees the light of day. Luxury is present in every detail, from the architectural project - by Renzo Piano - through the quality of construction and premium finishes, to the project of living in a neighborhood between the green and blue of the river.

Located in the old industrial riverside area of Lisbon, in Marvila, the new residential complex is located in Parque Ribeirinho Oriente, in the area of Braço de Prata / Doca do Poço do Bispo and is developed on the bank of the Tagus River facing east, in a 1.5 km strip with more than 16 hectares.

The paradigm of the new urban park involves connecting nature and the Tagus estuary with the inhabitants of Lisbon, through an integrative proposal as part of a wider functional and landscape unit, served by commerce, services, cultural facilities, green areas and leisure spaces.

This project continues the urban and environmental redevelopment of the eastern area of Lisbon, started with Parque das Nações, at the time of EXPO'98, with the objective of connecting Lisbon's historic districts to the river.

The Architecture of the Silver Riverside Village

Renzo Piano, winner of the Pritzker Prize in 1998, considered one of the most relevant architects on the international scene, conceived the entire project for the Gardens of Braço de Prata, in the riverside area of Lisbon. With successful projects in New York, Paris, London, Osaka, Amsterdam, Athens, Berlin and Tokyo, this is his first realization in the city of Lisbon.

The design takes inspiration from the site's industrial past, mimicking the dense mesh layout of the original factory buildings. Its contemporary design was inspired by a fleet of sailboats. The architecture of the multiple buildings of the development and the entire urban fabric designed recreates the traditional neighborhoods of Lisbon. The concept of the facades of the buildings, with the use of ceramic, was inspired by the traditional tile coverings so characteristic of Lisbon.

The buildings are organized in symmetrical sets of two bodies raised on a common base, with more opaque ceramic facades on the opposite exterior elevations, and large glazed areas towards the interior, with the condominium’s terrace/garden located between the two volumes.The panoramic elevators located outside the buildings, the sunny terraces and the extensive balconies allow you to enjoy the view over the river and the gardens of the development.

Luxury is in the details

Silver combines modernity and functionality with sustainable and durable material technologies. All buildings are equipped with state-of-the-art technology, in order to improve the life experience of its inhabitants, while offering solutions that promote effectiveness and efficiency, namely in terms of energy.

Among them, it is important to highlight the LED lighting in the apartments and common areas, the thermal solar system with a water heating tank, the security system with fire, gas leaks and flood detection, as well as the video intercom, CCTV systems and of intrusion detection.

But to create a luxury home it is necessary to guarantee a high standard of quality and exclusivity in terms of its equipment and finishes. The Silver Riverside has it all:

• Ernesto Meda open concept kitchens (with or without island) and Inalco kitchen counters;
• SMEG complete equipment;
• Premium finishes throughout the house, from the best Italian and European brands ( Gessi faucets, Florim ceramics, iGuzzini lighting, Duravit tableware and Ribadão floors, among others);
• Panoramic Schmitt + Sohn elevators overlooking the condominium garden;
• Maximum thermal comfort with hot and cold HVAC air conditioning;
• Thermal and acoustic insulation provided by Reynaers Aluminum windows, doors, facades, with HI-FINITY aluminum sliding system, ensuring that everyone enjoys breathtaking views, as well as bright, open and airy living areas;
• awningsexteriors, with remote control, which give privacy to the large balconies and have wind sensors that automatically pick them up in the event of strong winds;
• Private parking with charger for plug-in vehicles and parking for bicycles, with a view to promoting sustainable mobility for its residents.

Neighborhood experience, luxury at your doorstep

Its "unique architecture takes on a unique personality", supported by numerous shops, restaurants, galleries, bike lanes and playgrounds capable of serving not only the resident community, but also attracting visitors from other Lisbon neighborhoods. All this, crowned by the Ribeirinho Oriente Park, which invites you to practice outdoor sports, and by a unique connection to the Tagus.

But the neighborhood atmosphere of this “riverside village” would not be complete without a range of commerce and services selected based on the demanding criteria of its residents. To this end, the promoter reserved approximately 20 thousand square meters of commercial area, located on the 0th floor of all lots, with the granting of the concession being its exclusive responsibility, in order to guarantee the quality and diversity of the commercial offer.

There are several stores that have already opened, with many more in the process of being installed or negotiated.Among them: Delta The Coffee House Experience, Riverside Bike Shop, Carla Zuzarte's interior design and architecture store, Mercearia da Prata, Eliteline furniture store, Luís Pintão's art studio, Estúdio Criativo P´la Arte, the world leader in GROHE bathroom solutions and kitchen accessories, etc. The following are planned for the near future: the Rio de Prata Restaurant, the Riverside Lavandaria, the Info Beauty boutique, a gym, apharmacy, etc.

In the center of the development and next to the River Tagus, Lot 10 was reserved for the installation of a food market and a food court, with outlines yet to be revealed but which will improve the gastronomic and food offer at Prata Riverside.

The development's intervention plan is organized on the basis of 9 main lots, with more than 781 apartments planned, which have been completed in stages since 2019. All apartments have balconies with river views, generous areas, parking spaces and storage.

Currently, the Urban (end of construction scheduled for the 1st Quarter of 2023) and Square (2nd Quarter of 2023) buildings are still in the commercialization phase.
