The Waverly on Lake Eola is a luxury apartment complex located on the south side of Lake Eola at the eastern edge of Orlando's downtown business district.

The Waverly's concrete framed structure supports 400 parking spaces contained on four levels of covered parking. A 15-story "Wave" apartment structure rests atop this. Also, along the project's Central Boulevard elevation, a 22-story "Tube" structure, integral with the "wave" portion of the complex, terminates with a roof feature called the "Zombrero," in recognition of project developer Zom Development Inc.

The building skin is clad with various architectural components, with the predominant item being the green/gray tinted, insulated aluminum storefront window system utilized on the apartment towers. The parking garage and secondary elevations utilize varying quantities of architectural precast concrete and stucco, along with the window systems to provide striking architectural aesthetics.

The apartment complex features 174 luxury apartments in its "Wave" portion, while the "Tube" section houses 56 luxury apartments, including four penthouse suites and one grand penthouse, all offering views of Lake Eola.

Construction commented on March 21, 2000, and the final Certificate for Occupancy for the tenant buildout of the grand penthouse was received on April 1, 2002, for a total construction duration of 740 days. A total of 93 subcontractors, vendors and suppliers were utilized for construction.
