It looks like a medium class condo in Manila. Like seriously, they can’t even find a better design.

tax-free living is doing a lot of heavy lifting in that price tag, the land is almost secondary at this point.

I saw a walkthrough tour of one of the units and they're just as unappealing on the inside as they are on the outside.

From the outside, the building doesn't look like anything special. It might have been cool if those white panels were solar, but billionaires probably don't care much about that stuff.

The inside of these appartments looks so plain & cheap.

@gszabo7464 3 weeks ago

Its ugly, cold soulless, doesn’t fit to Monaco’s housing design. Also, such a huge building is blocking the view…

What a piece of architecture. They fought back part of seabed floor to build this astonishing building. Everyone who made it work, especially constructors, deserves a gold medal. Looks fanstastic!

Dismayed by this Piano design.

the villas at mareterra are WAY more expensive NOW... if a 5 story penthouse costs 500m€+ then what do you think a 4-6 level mansion with anywhere from 3-5k sqm will cost... john taylor has one listed with 3875 sqm of living space and 1000 sqm+ of other surfaces like terraces, then it also has 15 car parking. a parking spot in monaco especially mareterra will be expensive so at least 500k "each".... and sqm prices right now are 120k+... 120.000x3875=465 Million €.... and thats just the living area

It’s absolutely hideous inside. Low ceilings like all the garbage 1970 building buildings built on Avenue Princess Grace. The rooms are small, boxy and the terraces are minuscule. I’ve seen social housing that looks better than this. Besides, if you have ever spent a winter in Monaco, you will be eager to move to France by spring, despite their taxes.

While other nations are preoccupied with economic concerns and the threat of recession, Indonesia remains calm and composed; it is a beautiful, harmonious archipelago rich in natural resources, attracting people from all over the world who wish to settle and start businesses here. Hopefully, the nation will continue to progress and thrive in the future.

The exploration of Monaco’s ultra-exclusive Mareterra district and its record-breaking luxury real estate offers a fascinating look into the world's most expensive neighborhood. As a video editor and thumbnail designer, I designed a few improved thumbnail concepts to help increase the click-through rate for this video. How can I send these over for you to check out?

A structure that looks like a literal hospital ship with a bad plexiglass job! It has these chicken legs! It’s like that big guy at the gym with really tiny legs—it's embarrassing.

I was there excited to see Marre Terra, there is a park like area behind it, but the ENTIRE AREA is concrete with little greenery, or trees!!! I felt like I was walking around a cold, Prison yard!!! 🤷🏼‍♂️🤷🏼‍♂️🤷🏼‍♂️
