One Royal Palm

The Roebling Research Desk · October 2026

One Royal Palm brings Howard Chilton’s curved residential architecture to the ocean end of Royal Palm Way. At this Midtown corner, the appeal is the combination of a staffed condominium, access to the town beach across South Ocean Boulevard and a central island address. The property also appears in records as One Royal Palm Way; both names refer to 100 Royal Palm Way.

At a glance

• Address: 100 Royal Palm Way, Town of Palm Beach
• Ownership: Condominium
• Architect: Howard Chilton
• Era: County records identify 1969 construction
• Setting: Midtown, across South Ocean Boulevard from the Atlantic

The County record establishes the condominium identity and construction year. A Town architectural report independently identifies the building as Chilton’s work.

Architecture and residences

The building belongs to Chilton’s group of curving island apartment designs, giving it a recognizable place in Palm Beach’s modern architectural history. Its location at the end of Royal Palm Way makes the relationship between a residence’s orientation and its view particularly important. Ocean outlooks, garden settings and the experience of the street corner should be assessed from the actual rooms and terrace.

The housing mix is broader than a shorthand description of large two- and three-bedroom apartments suggests. The County sample is a three-bedroom residence, while a closed residence listing documents a smaller one-bedroom-plus-den garden home. That variation is useful for buyers: the building name alone does not establish bedroom capacity, outdoor space or a particular outlook.

Services and shared spaces

Listing evidence identifies a swimming pool, fitness room, garage parking, door staff and an on-site manager. These are meaningful conveniences for an island home used throughout the year or seasonally. Parking assignments and the level of staffing should be confirmed for the proposed purchase rather than inferred from an older apartment’s marketing.

What to know if buying

Start with the residence’s position and legal layout. A garden apartment and an upper-floor ocean-facing home can offer very different experiences at the same address. Compare measured interior area, terrace area, bedroom configuration and the route from parking to the residence. For altered or combined apartments, request approved plans and the association’s record of the work. Review current financial statements and planned building work alongside the apartment’s finishes.
