Pebble Bay, which acquired the land from the U.S. Information Service in 2003, planned to develop a high-rise condo, The Met, along with a low-rise hotel on the smaller plot in front.
Pebble Bay abandoned the hotel project in 2016, when it sold the land to PMT Property Co., Ltd., an affiliate of Thoresen Thai Agencies [th], for THB 1.58 billion.
In a lawsuit filed by The Met, the court ruled that PMT's proposed development of two buildings with 36 storeys each, named 125 Sathorn, exceeded lawful size limits.
