Shorecrest West Palm Beach: construction begins on North Flagler Drive and what buyers get

Every Shorecrest residence is a corner with two exposures

Each floor holds 4 residences, so every home is a corner with 2 exposures. Plans are 2 and 3 bedrooms from 2,015 to 4,760 square feet, with no one-bedroom plans and no studios. The developer has not published the plan set online. The plans on this site come from brokerage pages, so terrace depth and ceiling height should be confirmed on the current drawings.

The building was redesigned twice. Related proposed 140 condominiums on 26 floors in January 2024, then filed a 28-floor plan with up to 199 units in November 2024. It cut to about 100 and finally 98 before the city approved the revised plan in December 2025. The result is larger homes than the first marketing implied, in a building that sold most of its first release before the loan closed.

Views run east across the Intracoastal to Palm Beach island and the ocean beyond it. The 4-per-floor layout gives every home an east face, so there is no west-only line. At Olara and The Ritz-Carlton Residences, the exposure is the first question to ask.

Shorecrest West Palm Beach amenities and the Equinox program

The amenity program covers 18,355 square feet. A rooftop pool deck holds a 75-foot lap pool, hot tub and cold plunge, and the his-and-hers spa has sauna and steam. The rest of the program includes a golf simulator, a game lounge, a private dining room, executive meeting spaces and a yoga room, with a residents-only lifestyle director.

The developer describes a lifestyle and wellness program created with Equinox. It is a programming partnership rather than a club in the building. There is direct Intracoastal access and a secluded porte-cochere, but no marina.

Olara is the building on this stretch with a restaurant and the larger club, and The Ritz-Carlton Residences carries the hotel brand. Shorecrest is the quiet one, and that is the pitch. The design is reported as LEED Gold-certified, with 204 parking spaces for 98 residences, a 2-per-home ratio the larger towers do not match.

Shorecrest is scheduled to finish ahead of its neighbors

Delivery is the strongest argument for the building. Construction started April 2, 2026, with the $157 million GoldenTree loan already closed in February, and completion is anticipated in 2027. Olara and The Ritz-Carlton Residences are both 2028. For a buyer who wants a new North Flagler home before the end of next year, Shorecrest is the only tower on that timeline.

The developer's June 2025 fact sheet reported 10 percent at reservation, 10 percent at hard contract and 10 percent at groundbreaking. Another 10 percent was due at pouring of the purchaser's floor, with 60 percent at closing. That sheet was not retrievable in October 2026, so the current schedule should come from the sales gallery in writing.

Florida law frames the money. Under section 718.202, deposits above 10 percent may be used for construction only if the contract says so, and section 718.503 gives a 15-day cancellation right. The Move-in planner on this site lays the 2027 delivery against a buyer's own sale date.

Property tax follows the 2025 West Palm Beach stack of 20.4468 mills. That is about $71,600 a year on a $3.5 million residence assessed at full value, before homestead. The site sits outside the Downtown Development Authority district.

Shorecrest suits a private owner who wants to move in first

Shorecrest suits a buyer who wants Related Ross's execution and the Flagler Drive address at a lower entry than South Flagler House. It suits one who values privacy over a club and wants to close in 2027 rather than 2028. It also suits a buyer who wants 2 exposures without paying for a full-floor plan.

A buyer who wants a restaurant and a bigger social program should compare Olara next door. One who wants a hotel brand should look at The Ritz-Carlton Residences. A Premier Listings advisor can arrange a private presentation at 616 Hibiscus Street and walk the site at the hour of day that matters most to the household.
