Plaza Residences is a new residential complex in Riga, located at Andrejostas iela 8B in the Ziemeļu district, forming part of the larger Riga Waterfront development. It is being built by the international developer Eagle Hills, led by Mohamed Ali Alabbar, a businessman whose portfolio includes globally renowned projects such as Burj Khalifa and Downtown Dubai. Every one of his projects starts with a vision of how it will enrich the life of local residents and the surrounding neighbourhood, an approach reflected in the team itself: each project brings together internationally recognised architects and designers alongside respected local talent.
Riga was founded in 1201, and its well preserved historic centre, Old Town, is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It is home to medieval churches and Art Nouveau architecture, museums, concert halls and lively city squares, so the city blends over 800 years of history with a vibrant contemporary arts and culture scene.
Riga Waterfront is rising in Riga's historic port district, a former industrial area, transforming it into a dynamic, modern and sustainable waterfront quarter spanning 55 hectares. It will connect to the city centre via direct access along Eksporta iela, a planned tram line along Andrejostas iela, and the renovation of the ferry terminal. The historic power station building at the heart of the territory will become a retail, dining and entertainment centre, while a 5 km promenade along the river will offer views of Ķīpsala and Riga's sunsets. The area will also include yacht moorings, a cruise ship terminal, and a Soho district built around the historic power station, offering art, culture and retail experiences.
The interior of Plaza Residences' apartments and shared spaces is defined by modern luxury with a warm, bright mood: soft, natural tones combined with elegant finishes create a cozy atmosphere, while the layouts are thoughtfully designed to respect each resident's privacy.
The building includes underground parking, bicycle storage, stroller storage and its own retail street, while the courtyard, set at the 2nd floor level, offers a peaceful, green space for relaxation. The riverside is just a 3 minute walk away, and the upcoming shopping and dining centre only 2 minutes on foot.
The project offers 1, 2 and 3 bedroom apartments suited to a range of lifestyles: from compact one bedroom apartments ideal for young professionals, to spacious three bedroom apartments for families. Apartment sizes span a wide range, and some units also come with generous terraces, with certain layouts exceeding 60 to 70 m².
Plaza Residences is a fitting choice both for those looking for their first home in the city centre and for families wanting more living space with direct access to Riga's new landmark destination: Riga Waterfront.
