With prices starting from Sh11m upwards depending on the floor, it is presenting another opportunity for the high end clients to live in an elevated lifestyle in the city. 

“The building is built to UN Security Standards, UNEP & EU Housing Code. It will also host a heated swimming pool on the thirtieth floor, valet parking, a convenient store, a helipad amongst other facilities,” says Lordship Africa CEO Jonathan Jackson.

The project, which is dubbed 88 Nairobi Condominium, is set to redefine Nairobi’s Skyline being the tallest residential luxury apartment in Sub-Saharan region and the second tallest residential condominium in Africa.

It will include luxury penthouses at 40 floors and above which will have three or four bedrooms.
