The construction of Oasis Hallandale has reached a significant milestone with the commencement of glass installation on the West Tower. This marks a key point in Phase 3 of the project, as this mixed-use development continues to shape the skyline of Hallandale Beach.

Located at 1000 East Hallandale Beach Boulevard, Oasis Hallandale is a comprehensive mixed-use development spread across a sprawling 10-acre site. The 25-story West Tower, part of the project, is designed by the renowned architectural firm Arquitectonica and spearheaded by developer Giuseppe Iadisernia. MGM Construction Group is managing the construction, ensuring the project’s vision is realized.

Recent construction photos reveal the extent of progress on the West Tower. The installation of floor-to-ceiling glass has reached the fourth floor, with 14 slabs already poured into the superstructure. This impressive vertical advancement has pushed the structure well past the halfway mark. Notably, the slabs on the tower’s northwest corner display chamfering that narrows toward the middle and expands again at the top. This design feature will enhance the tower’s curvature, as highlighted in the renderings, becoming more pronounced once the glass installation progresses further.

Simultaneously, significant progress is being made on the East Tower, with foundational work for the core currently underway. The formwork for the garage structure, set to connect the two residential towers and feature an amenity deck, is also advancing. Upon completion, the East Tower will contribute an additional 250 residential units, completing the residential program of the project.

The twin towers will offer a variety of modern floor plans, including one-, two-, and three-bedroom residences. Key features include floor-to-ceiling windows, glass sliding doors, expansive balconies with glass railings, walk-in closets, and powder rooms in select units. The interiors, designed by Domus Aurea Interiors, will feature Italian countertops and tiles in kitchens and bathrooms, double sinks in primary bathrooms, and frameless glass-enclosed showers.

Oasis Hallandale will offer a wide range of amenities designed to enhance residents’ lifestyles. These include valet parking, a 24-hour lobby attendant, business and conference rooms, a lounge bar with pool tables, and a banquet hall. The development will also feature a golf simulator, children’s playroom, indoor and outdoor movie theaters, two pools, a hot tub spa, a children’s splash pad, and poolside cabanas. Additional amenities include a playground, barbecue and fire pit areas, a yoga lawn, a Ping-Pong room, a mini soccer field, a pet park, bike parking, electric vehicle charging stations, and storage facilities.

With Phases 1 and 2 already completed, Phase 3 of Oasis Hallandale is making steady progress. The project is on track to reach full completion by 2026, promising a vibrant and luxurious living experience in the heart of Hallandale Beach.

Alta Developers has recently revealed new renderings for Cassia, a striking 12-story residential development set to redefine luxury living in the heart of Coral Gables. Designed by the esteemed architectural firm Behar Font & Partners, this fully furnished luxury condominium will be located at 4011 Salzedo Street in the Merrick Park District. Cassia will offer 174 elegantly designed residences, ranging from one- to three-bedroom units, with sizes spanning from 662 to 1,439 square feet. Ideal for frequent travelers or seasonal residents, these units come fully furnished by RH, offering flexible rental options.

The newly unveiled renderings showcase Cassia’s rectilinear form, accentuated by a sleek white stucco exterior. The building’s design emphasizes vertical and horizontal lines through its recessed balconies and window frames. Large, floor-to-ceiling windows punctuate the façade, allowing for breathtaking views and an abundance of natural light. Architectural frames surrounding the balconies add a sophisticated depth and texture to the overall aesthetic.

The lower levels of Cassia will feature ground-level retail spaces, designed with extensive glazing and black aluminum framing to enhance transparency and encourage street-level interaction. The façade on this level will be clad in stone material or veneer, complemented by green walls and nearby landscaping, creating a harmonious blend with the surrounding environment.

A standout feature of Cassia is the outdoor amenity deck located above the podium level. This landscaped area includes a pool deck surrounded by palm trees and lush plantings, offering a serene retreat for residents. The pool area is outfitted with lounge chairs and outdoor seating, perfect for relaxation and social gatherings.

The name “Cassia” is inspired by the beautiful Cassia trees that bloom across Coral Gables during Spring and Fall, their pink blossoms resembling delicate bouquets. This name is a nod to the city’s founders, who envisioned Coral Gables as a Garden City with lush green avenues and charming architecture. This vision has been preserved, with Coral Gables earning the designation of Tree City USA for over 34 years.

Located just steps away from the Shops at Merrick Park, Cassia residents will enjoy unparalleled access to premier shopping and dining experiences. The area boasts over 100 retailers and restaurants, including luxury brands such as Neiman Marcus, Nordstrom, Gucci, and Tiffany & Co. For fitness and wellness, residents can visit Equinox Fitness, SoulCycle, and the Elemis spa.

Cassia promises to be a hallmark of luxury living in one of South Florida’s most desirable and pedestrian-friendly locations, blending modern design with the rich cultural heritage of Coral Gables.

Onda Residences: A New Landmark in Miami’s Bay Harbor Islands

Onda Residences Miami

Onda Residences, a stunning 8-story residential condominium designed by the renowned Arquitectonica, has reached a significant milestone with the completion of construction. Located at 1135 103rd Street in Miami’s Bay Harbor Islands, this boutique waterfront tower has officially received its Temporary Certificate of Occupancy (TCO). This achievement marks the beginning of a new chapter for Onda as owners move forward with unit closings and prepare to call this luxurious development home. The project was spearheaded by developers Ugo Colombo of CMC Group and Valerio Morabito of Morabito Properties, with Coastal Construction serving as the general contractor.

Onda has been a highly anticipated addition to Miami’s luxury condo market since its initial launch in 2021. Nearly all of the residences have been presold, reflecting strong demand for high-end properties in the area. Only three units remain available, with prices starting at approximately $5.1 million. The majority of Onda’s buyers are domestic, highlighting a trend of business and wealth migration fueling South Florida’s real estate market.

Onda Residences offers an array of luxurious living spaces, with residences ranging from two to four bedrooms plus den floorplans. The units vary in size from 1,809 to 3,535 square feet, with four penthouse residences reaching up to 5,073 square feet. Two of the penthouses include private rooftop pool decks. Each unit features high-end finishes, including private and semi-private high-speed elevators, floor-to-ceiling, impact-resistant sliding glass doors and windows, spacious tiled terraces with private gardens, open floor layouts with up to 9-foot-high ceilings, and fully-accessorized Snaidero kitchens with top-of-the-line Miele appliances. Bathrooms boast Italian marble and Milldue cabinetry, complemented by Italian flooring throughout. The residences also include energy-efficient air conditioning and heating systems, as well as advanced air and water filtration systems.

Designed by Bernardo Fort-Brescia of Arquitectonica, Onda reflects its name—meaning “wave” in Italian—through its architectural style and interior design. The interiors, crafted by Carlo and Paolo Colombo of A++ Human Sustainable Architecture, feature soothing, neutral tones inspired by the meeting of water and sand. Award-winning architect Enzo Enea of Enea Garden Design was responsible for the landscaping, adding to the serene and tropical ambiance of the property.

Onda’s prime location offers more than 300 linear feet of bay frontage with breathtaking views of Biscayne Bay and the Atlantic Ocean. The development includes a private marina with 15 boat slips and a water sports launch dock, providing residents with direct ocean access through Miami’s Haulover Inlet.

The building’s amenities are equally impressive, featuring a rooftop pool deck and lounge area, a state-of-the-art fitness center with Technogym equipment, a yoga studio, and a spa complete with massage treatment rooms, steam bath and sauna rooms. Residents will also enjoy personalized services, state-of-the-art security and technology, a front desk reception, a covered valet drop-off area, personal parking spaces, electric vehicle charging stations, bicycle storage, and residential storage space. An integrated digital concierge, WiFi throughout public spaces, and FTTH technology for voice, video, and high-speed internet are also provided.

Onda marks another successful collaboration between Colombo and Morabito, who previously partnered on the development of Beach House 8, a boutique waterfront condo on Collins Avenue in Miami Beach. Colombo’s CMC Group continues to make waves in the Miami real estate market, with projects like Vita at Grove Isle and the Four Seasons Private Residences Coconut Grove in partnership with Fort Partners.

With its prime location, luxurious features, and thoughtful design, Onda Residences is set to become a landmark in Miami’s Bay Harbor Islands, offering a unique and upscale living experience for its residents.
