“SoNo is a wonderful and welcoming waterfront neighborhood,” Rich said. “People want to come here to live in beautiful surroundings, take advantage of this unique, waterfront lifestyle and dine and shop in upscale restaurants and stores. We look forward to welcoming new neighbors to The Sono Pearl.”

The Sono Pearl was designed by Lessard Architects with construction being handled by F. D. Rich Co. It is slated for completion in June 2015.
