Real Estate Developer at the Center of Taichung's Luxury Real Estate Market Shares Plans for Upcoming Residential Buildings
TAICHUNG, June 30, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Lien Jade Real Estate, Taiwan's premier luxury property developer, is pleased to announce plans for the development of Alioth Palace, twin residential towers that will become the tallest residential buildings in Taichung, the second-largest city by population in Taiwan. This landmark development not only reinforces Taichung's position as an emerging investment destination in Asia's competitive luxury real estate market, but also embodies Lien Jade's deeper commitment to urban aesthetics and residential quality — creating enduring spaces that resonate with both the rhythm of the city and the lives within it.
In the past decade, Taichung has transformed into a cosmopolitan hub, with real estate values surging 12.8% in 2024 year-over-year, significantly outpacing the projections. The city's strategic position within Taiwan's economic corridor and high-speed rail connectivity has cemented its status as a critical node in Taiwan's economy, ranking as Taiwan's #1 economic performer for 20 consecutive quarters across multiple indicators. Taichung offers a perfect balance of urban sophistication and livable charm. The city represents a rare opportunity to enter a luxury market with significant growth potential while still maintaining exceptional value for investors.
Founded in 1994, Lien Jade has reshaped Taiwan's concept of luxury residences through its commitment to architectural innovation and "East meets West" design ethos. The company's architectural philosophy exemplifies a fusion of Eastern philosophical values with Western aesthetics, facilitating both private contemplation and social interaction. From their first villa project to developments like Peace Palace — which pioneered the 360-degree Sky Lounge concept in Taiwan — Lien Jade has elevated industry standards while transforming Taichung's skyline. Each Lien Jade building is conceived not merely as a residence, but as a cultural dialogue with the city—sculpted with craftsmanship, refined through detail, and shaped alongside the urban fabric to reflect a shared pursuit of architectural beauty in our time.
The new development, Alioth Palace, is located in Taichung's 7th District — the primary central business district of Central Taiwan. Spanning a site area of 1,838 ping (approximately 6,079 square meters), it marks Lien Jade's largest project site to date. Guided by the design philosophy of "Retreat from the bustle, return to tranquility," the project aims to offer residents a calm and refined living environment amidst the city's dynamic rhythm. At the heart of the project lies a generously planned "central courtyard garden" of over 1,000 ping, with two towers rising 51 stories high. Overlooking the 3-hectare Maple Garden Park, each residence features a grand 14.5-meter frontage, expansive floor-to-ceiling windows, and a consistent mid-sized layout of 62 ping per unit. Alioth Palace is poised to become a new landmark in Taichung's skyline and a defining chapter in the city's vertical evolution. For 30 years, Lien Jade has upheld a philosophy of human-centered architecture at the heart of every project. Alioth Palace embodies this belief, fusing calm, scale, and timeless design in the city's most vibrant quadrant.
Taichung's rise as a luxury destination is evidenced by the influx of international brands establishing flagship stores in the city, alongside a burgeoning cultural scene featuring Michelin-starred restaurants and world-class performing arts venues like the landmark "National Taichung Theater". Its public infrastructure, human-centric spaces, and everyday living environments infuse the city with a strong sense of aesthetic vitality — together shaping a vision of the ideal urban life. The city's strategic location — just a short high-speed rail journey from Taipei — coupled with its more temperate climate and balanced urban planning, has attracted a growing community of international business people and cultural elites.
With major manufacturers returning operations to Taiwan and significant technology investments flowing into the region, Taichung stands poised to become next global city while offering real estate values that remain accessible compared to other premium Asian markets. Taichung's rise as a business and luxury destination is further fueled by Taiwan's booming semiconductor and tech industry. The city has become a key node in this industrial expansion — with TSMC building out advanced fabs in "Central Taiwan Science Park", Foxconn investing in high-precision manufacturing hubs, and global tech leaders like Google and Micron reinforcing their footprint in the region. This surge in innovation-driven growth is not only reshaping Taichung's economic landscape but also accelerating demand for high-end residential offerings. As more professionals and capital flow into the city, Taichung's 7th District is quickly evolving into a prime destination for luxury living and international investment.
