The 10 most desired commercial buildings in Porto Alegre

The 10 commercial addresses most desired in Porto Alegre are on or very close to Carlos Gomes and Nilo Peçanha avenues. Rents range from R$ 75 to R$ 120 per square metre, according to a survey by Cushman & Wakefield. Across the capital, Fipe puts the cost of commercial rental at R$ 32. The condominium fee at these most valued addresses, meanwhile, ranges from R$ 13.87 to R$ 26 per square metre, according to the survey sent to the column.

According to the regional manager of the real estateconsultancy, Celso Refatti, setting up in these locations is part of building a business’s credibility, as well as seeking connections between professionals. The 10 commercial buildings on the list house the regional offices of major multinationals and the headquarters of some of Brazil’s largest companies. Refatti also notes that access is easy to Salgado Filho Airport or for those coming from the highways linking Porto Alegre to the interior. There is also the proximity of residential neighbourhoods.

Near future

Over the next two years, Porto Alegre will see high-end corporate launches. For the first half of 2024, there is Carlos
Gomes Square, a Melnick complex near Avenida Nilo Peçanha. Also next year, in the second half, Uma Incorporadora
delivers the commercial tower that will stand next to the complex of the new Bourbon Carlos Gomes shopping centre, by Grupo Zaffari. The column visited the
construction site, remember: R$ 500 million complex with commercial towers and Zaffari shopping centre takes shape; see images

In the first half of 2025, Porto Alegre should receive another major development: NL 2800. Located where Avenida
Nilo Peçanha meets Shopping Iguatemi, the CFL Inc. complex will have a commercial tower; a residential tower, 95% already sold, with
units above 300 square metres and views of the Porto Alegre Country Club; and an exclusive hotel with 84 suites. The column has also
covered the development before, remember: Construction approved for hotel, residential and corporate tower at the Porto Alegre Country Club;

– Since the opening of the Plaza São Rafael in the 1970s, with 271 rooms, Porto Alegre has not received a luxury hotel anchored
in the hospitality experience, with distinctive services and fine dining. That will be the concept of the hotel standing next to NL 2800
