The Related Group and East End Capital are close to delivering Wynwood 25 – the first large-scale mixed-use property in the Wynwood neighborhood. The uber-chic development, situated between NW 24th and 25th Streets and immediately west of NW 2nd Avenue, is comprised of 289 studio, one-, two-, and three-bedroom apartments plus 30,000 square feet of ground-floor retail. Pre-leasing has officially begun with prices ranging from the low $1,400s for studios to the low $4,000s for its three-bedroom apartments. Move-ins are expected to begin by May.
The units at Wynwood 25 feature custom Italian kitchens and bathrooms, walk-in closets, full-sized washers and dryers, and expansive floor-to-ceiling glass windows with views of Miami Beach, the Design District, and Downtown. The residences also have smart-home technology installed throughout, including Latch automatic locks and Lutron smart light technology.
A highly curated set of on-site amenities will also be available to Wynwood 25 residents, including an expansive rooftop terrace with resort-style pool, a cutting-edge fitness center with a spin and yoga room, a first-class pet spa, large grilling area, 12,000-square-foot courtyard, a covered outdoor conference center, and an outdoor movie theater. The property will also showcase a museum-quality art collection featuring new and established contemporary artists, including a site-specific work from world-renowned muralist EL MAC on the east façade. Miami-based artist Typoe will also complete a large-scale mural along the paseo wall.
“Wynwood is one of the most dynamic areas in all of South Florida. The neighborhood has earned a reputation as the city’s epicenter for culture and entertainment and as a place where innovative thinkers come together to create new ideas and propel the city forward,” said Jon Paul Pérez, VP at Related. “Our goal was to create a property that tapped into this disruptive energy, and I couldn’t be happier with where we are today. It’s been a pleasure to work alongside the East End Capital team to bring about the next step in Wynwood’s evolution.”
In achieving their vision, the Wynwood 25 team partnered with industry-leading design talent, including the internationally-acclaimed architecture firm Kobi Karp Architecture, the award-winning interior design firm Meshberg Group, and the renowned Miami-based landscape design firm Naturficial.
David Guetta’s Duplex Penthouse at Paraiso Bay (Video Tour)
As they say, good things come to those who wait. After waiting three-plus years for Related Group’s Paraiso Bay condo development to be completed, David Guetta’s custom-designed, duplex penthouse has been unveiled. The internationally acclaimed DJ and songwriter closed on it last September for $6 million and, after being on the market for only two days, was recently leased for $18,000 per month. Zelda Freud and Michael Wiesenfeld represented Guetta in both transactions.
Below is a video of David Guetta’s Miami penthouse. The three-bedroom, 4.5-bath condo residence was entirely custom-designed by famed Italian designer Piero Lissoni. Located on the 53rd and 54th floors of Paraiso Bay, it breathtaking views of the ocean, city, and bay. The first floor – which spans 2,387 square feet of interior space plus a 429-square-foot balcony – features a double-height foyer and wraparound staircase, a master bedroom, living room, and open kitchen. The second floor features a 373-square-foot den and 2,121-square-foot rooftop terrace with private pool and summer kitchen.
“The development brings together the best of everything that makes the city so magical – the ocean, cuisine, design, art and culture,” says Carlos Rosso, President of The Related Group’s Condominium Development Division. “With its endless list of amenities, impressive oceanfront location and close proximity to Miami Beach, the Miami Design District and Brickell, it’s no wonder we’ve had so many A-listers purchase residences here.”
Additional celebrities who have already purchased units at Paraiso include Alex Rodriguez, Gael Monfils, and Arantxa Sanchez.
A Photo Tour of the Amenities-packed Gran Paraiso
Gran Paraiso – the fourth and final tower of Related’s Paraiso District – has been completed. The 54-story condo development began closings on January 9th. To date, over 225 of the building’s 317 total units have closed (over 70 percent).
Gran Paraiso was designed by international architecture firm Arquitectonica with interiors and common areas designed by famed Italian designer Piero Lissoni. The non-penthouse residences at Gran Paraiso are comprised of one-, two-, three-, and four-bedroom options ranging in size from 1,075 to 2,232 interior square feet plus balcony. Each and every unit at Gran Paraiso offers direct, sweeping views of the water.
Perhaps the most amazing thing about Gran Paraiso is the quantity and quality of its amenities. To be fair, it’s perhaps the most amazing thing about Gran Paraiso AND Paraiso Bay because the two towers share amenities. When Paraiso Bay was delivered last April, it was said that roughly only 40 percent of its overall amenities were completed. That figure was almost incomprehensible because the amenities that were delivered at the time seemed plenty when compared to projects of similar size. (Keep in mind, Paraiso Bay has only 346 total units while Gran Paraiso has just 317).
The amenities that were delivered last April included a large clubroom with billiards table and catering kitchen; private screening theater; wine cellar and tasting salon; a cigar lounge with private humidors; teen’s game room; children’s playroom; a fitness center (albeit a smaller, temporary one); and a three-acre-plus, resort-style amenities deck with a dramatic circular zero-entry pool, outdoor spa, poolside cabanas, and summer kitchen.
Now, with the completion of Gran Paraiso, comes the rest of the amenities, which include a much larger, state-of-the-art fitness center with TechnoGym fitness and cardio equipment; a spin room equipped with TechnoGym bikes; indoor sports facilities with three bowling lanes, two billiards tables, two foosball tables, and high-definition golf simulator; Hammam spa with separate men’s and women’s steam and sauna facilities; and tennis center with lighted tennis courts and multipurpose court. Of those recently-delivered amenities, perhaps the most anticipated has been the bowling lanes. My photographer photographed it a few weeks ago on the day of its official opening and the management office already had reservations booked for several weeks in advance.
When added all together, one could easily make the argument that the amenities shared by Gran Paraiso and Paraiso Bay are the best in town. Related Group has delivered something enjoyable for all ages in this amenities-packed wonderland.
Over the past year, I’ve had the distinct pleasure of touring upon completion each of Related’s four Paraiso buildings with Carlos Rosso, President of Related. “We have created a luxury private neighborhood in Edgewater that will transform the area like we have done in the past with South of Fifth and Downtown Miami; Related has been the first developer to move in and redefine a whole area,” said Rosso. In Paraiso District, Related has brought interior designers from all over the world, including United Studio from London for Paraiso Bay, Piero Lissoni from Milan for One Paraiso and Gran Paraiso, Karim Rashid from New York City for Paraiso Bayviews, and, finally, Meyer Davis also from New York City for Amara Beach Club.
