Crest Prime Residence: A New Chapter in Kawasaki's Evolving Park-Style Community
Crest Prime Residence represents a large-scale, evolving residential community in Kawasaki's Saiwai Ward, designed as a "park within a city." The development is introducing a new block, Promenade Eighth Avenue, which offers views over the community's symbolic lawn square and is adjacent to a new shared facility building, positioning it as a central part of the neighborhood. The overall project spans an area approximately 1.3 times the size of the Tokyo Dome, with over 2,500 planned units, and features seven distinct blocks and a waterfront shared facility called Crest Plaza.
The property features are comprehensive. The standalone Crest Plaza building, nestled beside a central water feature called "The Lake," houses 15 different shared facilities. These include a kids' room, party room, rooftop BBQ garden, cafe lounge, karaoke room, a library & study room convenient for telework, a fitness room, a wine cellar, and a piano room. The development is also family-friendly, with a new Kawasaki Municipal Elementary School scheduled to open on adjacent land in April 2025 and a nursery school located within the complex grounds.
Critical agent notes provide essential purchasing details. For the Promenade Eighth Avenue block, this is a pre-announcement advertisement. At this stage, it is not yet determined whether all planned units will be sold at once or in several phases. The number of units for sale, exclusive area, and balcony area figures provided are for all 368 planned units. For other blocks currently accepting applications (Park Fifth Avenue, Promenade Seventh Avenue, Avenue Second Avenue), applicants must prepare a seal, ID, proof of income for the last two years, and a 100,000 yen application deposit. As applications are accepted on a first-come, first-served basis, the number of available units is subject to change.
Further important notes clarify that for buildings related to this project (First, Second, Third Avenue, Promenade Seventh/Eighth Avenue, Park Fifth Avenue), building confirmation under the Building Standards Act Article 6 has not yet been received for other structures, and as they are still in the planning stage, the number of units may change. Some units may have their views or ventilation affected. In floor plan notations, BW stands for Big Walk-in Closet, WIC for Walk-in Closet, and MC for Multi Closet. The sales price includes consumption tax related to the building. Balcony areas range from 9.2 sqm to 35.1 sqm.
The area of Kawasaki, particularly around the Shin-Kawasaki and Yako stations, is a key hub for technology and research, home to many corporate R&D centers. A notable nearby landmark is the Kawasaki Daishi (Heiken-ji Temple), one of the most visited Buddhist temples in the Kanto region, known for its grand architecture and significance in warding off evil.
