Who’s Behind the Hyde by Wanders & Yoo?

Anybody contemplating buying an apartment in a new development should start by evaluating the people behind the project. That’s what we do at PPR. Before we enter into any relationship with a project, we always want to know more about the developer and the forces shaping a project.

We’re not alone in this process. From large investors to retiring couples, we always encourage buyers to do their due diligence. The smart ones take the advice and buy with a feeling of security, knowing they are doing business with reputable parties. 

That’s one reason why the Hyde by Wanders & Yoo has been so popular. Not only is the project a one-of-a-kind development in the heart of the city, but the team behind the Hyde is also professional and talented, with a proven track record of delivering top-quality projects worldwide.

Anybody evaluating the Hyde can see the finished development will stand out in a city of skyscrapers as an iconically branded building that will set a new standard for a luxury lifestyle.  

Why do we think this? Here is a little bit of the background about the team developing vision, design, layout, engineering, construction, and delivery of the Hyde.
