Just a few miles from Panama City in Panama, a new project aims to create an eco-friendly beacon for commerce, industry, and lifestyle. Panama Pacifico, a $700 million project being developed by Jaime Gilinski and London & Regional Partners have been selected as the preferred bidder on the Panama Pacifico Project in Panama City, Panama. Based on the former Howard Air Force Base in Panama, the land comprises 2,750 acres.
Panama Pacifico will be a mixed-use development, complete with a cargo airport and close proximity to the Panama Canal. Jaime Gilinski and London & Regional Properties are designing Panama Pacifico for global corporations looking to set up regional headquarters in Central America. Jaime Gilinski and his partners are also committed to make Panama Pacifico an exceptional place to live. Homes, offices, hotels, and commercial complexes will be surrounded by gardens, walking paths, and open spaces. Jaime Gilinski and London & Regional Properties project a value of $10 billion upon completion. It is also expected to generate over 20,000 jobs for the region.
The vision for the Panama Pacifico Special Economic Area is to attract and promote investment, generate jobs and strengthen the country’s economy – in a way that obtains the maximum benefit from its resources and facilities, placing a strong emphasis on sustainability. The idea of sustainability is that it reinforces the understanding of cultural legacy, minimal energy use, reduction of carbon footprint, enriching ecological habitats, improves connectivity, and creates social places. Sustainable development is development that creates unique places that are patterned for people to live, work, and play in.
As this site was originally created as a ‘garden city’ for its military residents, the goal for the new community is to maintain nearly half of the project’s for open space, native habitat and new parks. 1,375 acres of the 2,750 acres in Panama Pacifico are reserved for native habitat, new parks and open space. Many innovative, eco-friendly technologies will be used to preserve the lushness of the area. New storm water systems will be integrated to allow the natural run-off of rainwater to nurture the land, and new trees will be planted every year as the development progresses.
As Panama, Jaime Gilinski, and London & Regional Partners pursue growth, they are ensuring that natural beauty will remain an inspiration. Panama Pacifico is a modern example of how smart planning can maximize prosperity, create an exceptional lifestyle,
