He immediately researched the capitalarea property, toured the model showroom…and was sold! “I took one day to think about Turnberry Tower, and quickly put down a deposit,” says the soonto-be resident. Citing the myriad of attributes and conveniences of living in Rosslyn, including a strong corporate environment, great restaurants, and an exciting nightlife, Massimo says the burgeoning area has a New York feel. At the top of his list is Turnberry Tower’s centralized location, allowing residents to get anywhere in the DC area quickly and easily. Massimo plans to make Turnberry Tower his permanent home and is especially excited about the private elevator feature that enhances the condominium’s convenience and safety. “I thought that was the coolest thing,” he said. “You see that in other areas like Miami and Las Vegas, but this is a first for this market.” Massimo was born in Italy and has lived in New York, New Jersey and California -- experiences that have allowed him to know a good spot when he sees one.

A Weekend Getaway to Last a Lifetime Massimo Allegretta Atlanta, Georgia is where agent Maisha Childs works and lives, but her weekends belong to Atlantis, Paradise Island. For the past seven years, Maisha has been taking advantage of direct flights from Atlanta to The Bahamas to visit the resort on a regular basis with her two daughters. When she discovered that Turnberry, Ltd. was building The Residences at Atlantis, she knew she had found the opportunity of a lifetime. “I was probably the first person to send in my check,” Maisha remembers. “I actually tried to send it in before they were even accepting checks.” No newcomer to Turnberry, Ltd. properties, Maisha also owns units at Miami Beach’s Fontainebleau III and Las Vegas’ The Residences at MGM Grand. Even among this large portfolio, however, Atlantis stood out as a remarkable opportunity. “I think it’s the only Caribbean destination where you really do not have to leave the resort, even with kids,” she says. “I mean, they have the huge spa, the beach, casinos and specialty stores, but they also have a kid’s movie theater and kid’s nightclub.” LAS VEGAS, NEVADA Turnberry Towers’ Turnberry Towers Las Vegas pools to make a splashing debut Welcomes residents to East Tower Residents at Turnberry Towers enjoy more than making waves in the high-rise community’s dual 3,800-square-foot lagoon pools. Each tower’s pool area boasts a sandy beach entry into the water, heated spa, shallow wet deck area for chaise lounging, waterfalls flowing over a quaint grotto seating area and more. The pools complement the current trend in the industry, according to Chris Attanasio, principal of Attanasio Landscape Architecture. “The current trend is a movement away from sterile, rectangular shaped pools to more comfortable resort-style pools,” said Attanasio, who has been working with Turnberry’s Las Vegas high-rise communities for more than seven years. “The pools at Turnberry Towers will be ‘resort-style’ with free-form shapes and casual benches around the entire pool.” “Not only are people moving here for the weather and favorable tax benefits, they are relocating to enjoy all the city offers,” New Turnberry Tower residents are enjoying more than a spectacular, new high-rise condominium community. Incredible shows, upscale shops and on ongoing progression of world-class resorts will make 2008 – and the years to come – an exciting time to live in Las Vegas. “Not only are people moving here for the weather and favorable tax benefits, they are relocating to enjoy all the city offers,” said John Riordan, Senior Vice President of Sales for Turnberry Towers. “Las Vegas is constantly evolving and has certainly become one of the Pool-goers can also wallow in most exciting places to live in the country, if not the world.” Turnberry Towers is under construction on 10 acres at the corner of Paradise Road and Karen Avenue, just across from the developer’s highly successful, sold out Turnberry Place. The East Tower, which has a select few remaining residences for sale, was completed this past summer. The West Tower is more than 60 percent sold and will be finished in April 2008. “Turnberry Towers is situated near an area of the Las Vegas Strip that will flourish with new high-end developments over the next several years,” Riordan said. “These world-class resorts are poised to reinvent the north end of the Strip.” Priced from $550,000 to more than $1.3 million, Turnberry Towers offers spectacular views of the Strip and surrounding mountains. One- to three-bedroom condominiums boast a contemporary-design and will be finished with Italian marble baths and Jacuzzi Whirlpool tubs, granite-topped European kitchen cabinetry, General Electric Monogram appliances and nine-foot ceilings.

Overlooking the Oakland Bay Bridge, Turnberry Tower San Francisco will rise approximately 40 stories at 45 Lansing Street and include a variety of studio, one-, two- and three-bedroom residences. According to Turnberry President/Chief Operating Officer Bruce Weiner, the development will be the most upscale in the neighborhood with standard amenities including exotic marble baths, Snaidero cabinetry, European cooking appliances and Jacuzzi Hydrotherapy tubs. “During the past decade, we’ve created a tremendous following along the west coast,” Weiner said. “Those buyers– and our research–have strongly indicated there’s a large market in San Francisco for the highrise lifestyle and level of service we deliver.” Construction began this past summer and the launch of sales is set for early 2008. The site, near First and Harrison Streets, has already received planning approval from the city and will be an integral part of Rincon Hill’s continuing evolution. City planners have designated the area as ideal for highrise, downtown residential development. “The views from the residences will be magnificent and the location’s proximity to mass transit and the city’s business district is perfect. Rincon Hill is really evolving into the perfect place for San Franciscans to live and work,” Weiner said. And, while this may be Turnberry’s first California project, Weiner indicates it certainly won’t be the company’s last. “We have big plans for California overall,” he said. “We’ve had great success in Miami, Las Vegas and Washington D.C. and believe this San Francisco development fits our model of bringing world-class luxury to world-renowned cities.” Turnberry to Debut Suites at Strip’s Most In-demand Casino and Resort Already the undisputed leader in Las Vegas luxury high-rise living, Turnberry is introducing its latest incredible ownership opportunity in the entertainment capital of the world: Fontainebleau Las Vegas, a $2.9 billion, 63-story, resort, condominium-hotel, casino and entertainment destination on The Strip.

The forerunner of a new generation of world-class resorts, Fontainebleau Las Vegas will bring the Fontainebleau brand from Miami to Las Vegas, borrowing from Morris Lapidus, the innovative architect who designed the curvilinear Fontainebleau in Miami Beach more than a half-century ago.
