A new era of contemporary condominium living on the St. Johns River is coming to historic Riverside. Beacon Riverside, a luxury waterfront condominium high-rise, will be one of Jacksonville’s most distinguished addresses, offering a new benchmark in stylish and sophisticated riverfront living that has been designed with a conscience.

“Green design has gained momentum as a construction standard that can help conserve the earth’s resources while reducing energy use requirements,” said Bryan Weber, Principal, Multifamily of Hallmark Partners, the developer of Beacon Riverside. “At Hallmark Partners, we focus on creating a better living environment in each of our developments that is designed to offer many advantages to the world around us. At Beacon Riverside, our residents and prospects clearly appreciate this feature.”

Beacon Riverside, a 15-story luxury condominium tower with 45 stylish residences overlooking the St. Johns River, will offer breathtaking views in every direction. The condominium’s sustainable and distinctive design is planned with quality features to stand the test of time. Residences will be enriched by incomparable upscale amenities and energy-saving and green design features including dual panel low E thermal windows, natural gas outlets, numerous energy-efficient, state-of-the-art appliances including luxury gourmet kitchen appliances and TOTO plumbing products.

All bathrooms at Beacon Riverside will be designed with TOTO plumbing fixtures with polished nickel faucets and trim. TOTO is the world’s largest manufacturer of bathroom fixtures and fittings. The global brand is manufactured in America and well known as the world standard for bathroom excellence.

The company designs beauty into its high-efficiency faucets, toilets and showers along with superior performance. Committed to environmental sustainability, its high-efficiency products reduce water usage beyond today’s compliance standards. TOTO’s high-efficiency faucets, toilets and showers can save 20 percent to more than 60 percent on water usage bills, making it possible to use less water and save money without compromising performance. TOTO is the only plumbing manufacturer to receive the EPA’s Water Efficiency Leader Award.

A high-quality bathroom with TOTO products is an everyday luxury that people value and appreciate, according to Tim Deck and Stanley Kantor, owners of First Coast Supply, North Florida’s only full service source for appliances, kitchen and bath cabinetry, custom granite and quartz countertops and TOTO plumbing products and fixtures.

The Connelly Dual-Flush High-Efficiency Toilet, the Silas Widespread High-Efficiency Faucet and Transitional Collection Series A High-Efficiency Showerhead are three of the TOTO products planned for the Beacon Riverside. Toilets are the biggest source of water use in the home, representing almost a third of a household’s total indoor water consumption.

The Connelly Dual-Flush High-Efficiency Toilet delivers reliable, eco-friendly performance and reliability. TOTO’s high-efficiency products meet the EPA’s WaterSense standards for water efficiency. The TOTO Connelly Dual-Flush High-Efficiency Toilet (1.28 GPF for the full flush and 0.9 GPF for the light) saves approximately 35 percent more water per flush than a standard 1.6 GPF toilet, without sacrificing performance. The Silas Widespread High-Efficiency Faucet and Transitional Collection Series A High-Efficiency Showerhead also offer stylish, high performance and significant water savings.

“Beacon Riverside is designed to be the area’s premier condominium tower and unlike anything that has been built in Jacksonville,” Weber added. “TOTO is the perfect match for the Beacon, offering sustainable elegance, saving resources, without sacrificing quality and performance which is an important element of our design.”
