One apartment per floor on the quieter end of Delfim Moreira.
Landmark buildingClaude Debussy sits at Avenida Delfim Moreira 300, toward the Jardim de Alah end of Leblon's beachfront avenue. It is a 15-story building with essentially one apartment per floor — standard units around 169 m² and a penthouse of roughly 282 m² — which keeps the resident count low and the building quiet.
Like its neighbors on the avenue, it faces the ocean head-on, with the beach across the street and the Dois Irmãos peaks closing the view to the west. The east end of Delfim Moreira puts you closer to Ipanema and the Jardim de Alah canal crossing than the rest of the strip.
Address: Av. Delfim Moreira 300, Leblon, Rio de Janeiro
The building was completed in 1980, in the last wave of construction on Delfim Moreira before zoning tightened and the avenue's profile froze into what you see today. Composer-named buildings were a small fashion of the era — Claude Debussy stands a few blocks from buildings named for resort towns and French phrases, all from the same two decades.
