Oasis Condominiums: Life As Art

March 30, 2011 - PRLog -- A lush, new riverfront enclave located in the heart of the revitalized downtown Fort Myers River District on the picturesque Caloosahatchee River, Oasis offers luxurious 32-story high-rise condominium living unlike anything Fort Myers has ever seen.

Bordered by a pristine nature preserve, The Oasis curvaceous façade exudes sophisticated, contemporary architecture reflective of the easy-flowing azure waters beneath. Inside the graciously proportioned exterior, elegantly appointed residences are oriented toward floor-to-ceiling windows that frame expansive horizon and water views throughout.

Like fine art, Oasis offers something for all the senses. True resort-style living includes a 1.5-acre natural-stone terrace with whirlpools and expansive zero-entry swimming pools complete with the burble of fountains, professionally maintained tennis courts, fitness centers, luxurious spa facilities and a variety of social spaces ideally suited for leisure or entertaining. Oasis also features an on-site marina and Beach Concierge service on nearby Fort Myers Beach.

The Oasis towers, designed by renown firm, Wolfberg Alvarez, was the conception of Jorge Pérez, Chairman and C.E.O. of The Related Group, the original developer at Oasis. A world-class collector who is also a generous patron of the arts, Pérez has shared his discriminating eye and deep love for the visual arts, privately acquiring international works of art for permanent exhibition at Oasis. The Art at Oasis Collection began with the purchase of a piece by art legend Robert Rauschenberg, who called Captiva, Florida home.

Pérez and The Related Group followed this key acquisition with a privately funded, juried art competition to select additional works by important and emerging Florida artists, including sculptor Judson Nelson and painter Jeff Whipple, nationally prominent artists who now reside in Southwest Florida. Pieces from the Art at Oasis Collection are now part of the permanent collection, installed throughout the common areas and amenities of the luxurious towers.

Other artisans from around the world have found a home at Oasis, and a temporary gallery installation is on display in one of the residences of Tower I during the popular downtown ArtWalk events, held on the first Friday of each month. Shuttles carry art enthusiasts between the heart of the downtown River District and Oasis, just one mile away from the Patio De Leon.

One-to-three-bedroom model designer residences that range from 1,051 to 2,253 square-feet are open to the public daily at Oasis on-site sales center at 3000 Oasis Grand Boulevard, Fort Myers. Prices for the beautiful, waterfront units start at $147,000 and below-market financing is available. Call 239.245.9900, or visit online at http://www.oasiscondos.com for more information. Sales and marketing is provided by Related McWilliams Ballard Realty.  Cooperating brokers are welcome.
