DIGICEL DOWNTOWN DEVELOPMENT

Kingston, Jamaica


The Digicel Downtown Development project in Kingston, Jamaica is intended to follow a Master Plan for a  complex of buildings and gardens comprising three parts: Digicel corporate facilities, a hotel or other  commercial building and an entrance plaza. The Digicel corporate buildings occupy the first third of the site  facing out onto the waterfront. An eighteen-story tower standing on a white stone plinth houses office  accommodation, call center and training facilities, etc., with views out across the bay to the south and west. A  separate two-story building houses the switch / battery / UPS and the staff canteen, all kept at the lower level for  ease of access and servicing.


Planned hotel buildings will be about six stories high, positioned along the east side of the site to enclose an  entrance space at the front of the Digicel tower, making a proper entrance to the Digicel building and setting it  up as the most important building on the site. To be clad in red sandstone, surrounded by dark green trees, the  ensemble structure will feature the Digicel colors. The future entrance plaza will provide an entrance space  appropriate to the size of the Digicel tower. The plaza is conceived as a garden, entered through a large gate  at the city end of the site, with a long shallow pool down the middle. The pool will be used to collect rainwater  and will provide water for fire-fighting. The Digicel tower will be reflected in the water, and to either side will be  lawns and rows of trees for shading.
