Santo Domingo construction and urban development

Overview

Construction activity in Santo Domingo is characterized by both major public infrastructure projects and a significant shift toward high-density vertical development.

Public works are progressing with the Ciudad Judicial de Santo Domingo Oeste, which has reached 65% completion. This RD$2,700 million project aims to centralize the Judiciary, the Public Ministry, and the National Public Defense Office to improve judicial access. Authorities expect to deliver the facility in the final quarter of the year.

Simultaneously, urban development data from the National Statistics Office (ONE) highlights a trend toward vertical densification. While small-scale projects make up the majority of registered works, large-scale developments costing over $5,000 per square meter account for 71.8% of the total square meters constructed. This concentration in the luxury and mixed-use segments is driven by land scarcity and the need to maximize profitability through high-rise towers.
