400 SOUTH OCEAN BLVD. | PALM BEACH
The 400 Building, a towering white building of chic duplexes on Ocean Blvd., between Chilean and Peruvian Avenues, is one of Palm Beach's most architectural significant buildings. Designed by Edward Durall Stone, this ultra-contemporary building, known for soaring oceanfront duplexes and floor to ceiling ocean views, opened to much fanfare in December 1962.
The 400 Building was Palm Beach's first condominium building, and the first by an internationally-recognized architect.
Designed in the Futurist - New Formalist Style of architecture, the building was created for the tropics, opening into a stunning all white central atrium, soaring to the open sky, with flowing water pools, and open air walkways creating a flow from the outdoors inside.
The Town of Palm Beach recognized the 400 Building as a significant architectural masterpiece by awarding the building landmark status in 2012.
Setting this building apart is the stunning acqa blue rooftop pool set against a stark modern white backdrop bringing to mind Philippe Starck's Delano Hotel in Miami - the ultra chic Miami hotspot of the 1990s.
The 400 Building's pool was the first rooftop pool in Palm Beach, and it's magnificent pool deck with it's clean, linear lines and simple, stark white lounge chairs overlooking the Ocean exhibits brilliant design that remains awe-inspiring today.
The aqua blue pool and its adjacent party room - overlooking the Ocean with panoramic views of the Town - are like walking into a David Hockney painting - perfect for hosting fabulous parties.
The residences in the 400 Building are all designed as duplexes, except for penthouse residences - and are simply stunning. One is amazed as the eye transitions through the long narrow stark white entrance to the soaring ceilings ahead, and onward to the Ocean - or town - depending on the line. The perfect setting for a contemporary art collection.
Kitchens are in the rear, but many have been expanded to capture the views. Stairs from the living room take one up to the bedrooms. On the Oceanfront residences, the Master Bedroom opens to sweeping Ocean views, with guest bedrooms typically facing the interior.
The 400 Building offers 2 bedroom duplexes, penthouses, and the occasional 4 bedroom combined residence.
Lounging upstairs by the pool with its sweeping Ocean views or working our in the gym facing the water is simply unmatched - except for the location in the center of everything.
