Mr. C Residences vs. Nora House: Downtown WPB's Two Newest Boutique Towers
Cipriani-branded hospitality near Rosemary Square versus a low-rise boutique building in the Nora District — how these two new construction projects actually differ.
Guide facts updated August 25, 2026
Mr. C Residences West Palm Beach and Nora House both target buyers who want new construction closer to downtown than the Flagler Drive corridor — but they take almost opposite approaches to what that means.
Mr. C Residences — 383 Okeechobee Blvd. 146 residences across 27 floors, from $1.6M to $6M, completing 2027 — the soonest of any building in this comparison set. The building splits into two distinct products: Resort Residences (floors 2–8) with no rental restrictions and an optional hospitality rental program, and Tower Residences (floors 9–20) with a 6-month rental minimum for buyers who want a more private, less transient floor.
Nora House — 1105 N Dixie Hwy. 117 residences across just 11 floors, from $2M to $10M, delivering 2029 — the furthest out of any building in this set. Nora House is a low-rise by comparison, situated in the emerging Nora District with a Walk Score of 100 and amenities including two rooftop pickleball courts, a two-lane bowling alley, and a rooftop pool.
On delivery timeline, this is the widest gap in this comparison: Mr. C completes in 2027, Nora House in 2029 — a 2-year difference that should weigh heavily if your timeline is a real constraint.
On building form, Mr. C's 27-story tower and Cipriani-branded hospitality service is a fundamentally different physical and lifestyle experience than Nora House's 11-story boutique scale. If a high-rise view and hotel-caliber amenities matter more to you than walkability and a lower-density building, that alone should settle the decision.
On rental flexibility, Mr. C's Resort Residences tier is unusually permissive for new construction — genuinely useful if income potential matters to your investment thesis. Nora House's rental policy is still being finalized ahead of its later delivery date.
On price ceiling, Nora House's top end reaches $10M versus Mr. C's $6M, suggesting Nora House is positioning some units at a higher luxury tier despite its smaller physical footprint.
Both are legitimate new-construction options in downtown-adjacent WPB, but they're really answering different questions: Mr. C for buyers who want a sooner delivery and hospitality-branded flexibility, Nora House for buyers willing to wait longer for a lower-density, walkable building in an up-and-coming district.
