  • Montego Bay Ascendant: Swallowtail Tower Tops Out, Cementing City’s Role as Jamaica’s New Development Leader

    Montego Bay, long established as the Caribbean’s premier tourism capital, is now boldly stepping forward to claim its title as a leader in integrated, high-end residential development. The city’s skyline has been irreversibly changed with the Official Topping-Out Ceremony of the Swallowtail Tower, the first of the four luxury residential towers at The Pinnacle.

This monumental achievement not only solidifies Montego Bay’s structural progress but also signals its intent to become a primary hub for luxury living and diversified economic activity, challenging Kingston’s traditional dominance in non-tourism-centric development.
