Atlantic Building, Modern residential building in Vedado, Havana, Cuba
The Atlantic Building is a modern residential structure in Vedado with a glass and concrete facade that rises along Calle D near the Malecon. It contains housing units, underground parking, and shared amenities including pools within a single integrated complex.
Completed in 2007, the structure resulted from a partnership between Cuban and Italian companies that marked a turning point for international architectural collaboration on the island. This cooperation brought modern construction techniques that had been less common in Cuba before that time.
The building reflects how residential living has evolved in Havanna, blending European design approaches with local construction traditions that shaped the neighborhood. It stands as a marker of contemporary life in one of the city's more developed areas.
The best time to view the building is early morning or late afternoon when light illuminates the facade and the area is less crowded. Since it is a private residential building, observing it from street level gives a clear impression of the modern design without needing interior access.
The building employs specialized reinforcement techniques and post-tensioned concrete methods to resist coastal salt air and harsh weather conditions. These engineering solutions are not visible to visitors, yet they allow the structure to endure in such a demanding environment next to the Malecon.
