The first phase of high-rise luxury apartment development, Ellipse Waterfall, is complete. Construction of the first two towers, 10-storey ‘Newton’ and 11-storey ‘Kepler’, began in November 2019 and is now complete.
This moves the development onto the second phase in which the flagship 16-storey ‘Cassini’ tower including ‘The Luna Club’ will be built.

Designed by distinguished multidisciplinary design studio, dhk Architects, the elegant form of the Ellipse Waterfall towers developed by Attacq and Tricolt will deliver a highly recognizable landmark in the heart of Waterfall City.
