Soul, Residential skyscraper in Surfers Paradise, Australia
Soul is a residential skyscraper in Surfers Paradise with 77 floors above ground and 3 underground levels on the Esplanade. The building reaches 243 meters tall and contains 288 residential units along with retail spaces occupying the lower levels.
Construction began in 2010 following the demolition of the former Raptis Plaza shopping centre and finished in 2012. The project was marked by worker disputes and challenges, yet represented a turning point in the area's urban development.
The building shapes the Gold Coast's appearance with its modern design, reflecting the area's shift toward upscale urban living. Visitors can observe the mix of residential units and retail spaces in the lower levels, which characterize the neighborhood's evolving character.
The building is situated on the Esplanade and easily accessible by foot, with multiple elevators serving the interior. The lower levels feature retail spaces open to the public, offering shopping and dining options for visitors exploring the area.
The top-floor penthouse commanded a sale price that set a national record for property values at the time of its sale. This remarkable transaction reflects the strong demand for luxury homes in this location.
