(CLI) and Japan’s NTT Urban Development (NTTUD) Asia under CLI NUD Ventures, Inc., The Wave Towers is a P9.2-billion development set to become Cebu’s first Japanese-inspired residential community—a fusion of Japanese precision, Cebuano soul, and timeless sophistication.

 

The groundbreaking ceremony was graced by executives from Cebu Landmasters, Inc. (CLI) and NTT Urban Development (NTTUD) Asia, together with dignitaries and officials from Cebu City. Following the ceremony, the two companies officially launched The Wave Towers, unveiling a new residential landmark that highlights Cebu’s continued rise as a hub for progressive and world-class living.

 

“The groundbreaking and launch of phase 1 of The Wave Towers mark a significant milestone for both Cebu Landmasters and NTT UD. This partnership brings to life a shared vision – one that combines innovation, craftsmanship, and respect for culture and community. More than just a collaboration, The Wave Towers stand as a testament to Cebu’s growing prominence as a center for world-class real estate development,” said Jose Soberano III, Cebu Landmasters chairman and CEO.

It is also designed by SY2, one of the country’s leading structural design firms recognized for its expertise in complex high-rise developments. The towers are designed with enhanced structural integrity and resilience, meeting international standards for long-term safety and performance.

 

The first tower, Nagomi, will rise 40 storeys and house 709 premium units, each designed for modern comfort and mindful living.

 

Each unit features a modern kitchen, built-in storage,and bathrooms with TOTO fixtures and glassenclosures. Smart locksets, AV intercoms, and split-type air-conditioning ensure comfort and security, complemented by a range hood and provisions for a washer/dryer, water heater, cable TV, and internet connectivity for everyday convenience. Two- and three-bedroom units feature a Japanese-designed multipurpose room, with shoe cabinets in every home reflecting authentic Japanese culture.

 

Nagomi Tower includes a commercial podium with dedicated parking, five elevators, and spacious 1.8-meter-wide hallways. The sixth-floor Shared Amenity Deck offers a spa, pool complex, fitness center, Japanese garden, kids’ play area, and game room—creating a serene escape in the city.
