Where each one wins
Alba is for buyers who want to walk the residence, measure the terrace and close before the season. The trade is limited choice and a proposed 30-story sister tower next door whose fate rests with the City Commission.
Olara is for buyers who want the full program and can wait two years. The trade is scale, 275 condominiums plus 170 rentals on one podium, and a delivery date that has moved twice.
