FAA Clears the Way for Aman Miami Beach Residences: A New Icon of Luxury and Heritage in the Faena District
OKO Group and Access Industries have received crucial Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) approvals for the Aman Miami Beach Residences, an exclusive residential and hotel project at 3425 Collins Avenue. The FAA has issued two height clearances, ensuring the project aligns with airspace regulations while setting new standards for luxury living in the Miami Beach skyline. The primary clearance authorizes a maximum height of 252 feet above ground level (255 feet above mean sea level) at the building’s highest point. A secondary clearance applies to a segment closer to Miami International Airport’s (MIA) runway, capping its height at 227 feet above ground or 230 feet above sea level. These approvals, effective until April 2026, mark an essential milestone in the project’s progression.
Aman Miami Beach Residences will seamlessly blend luxury accommodations and private residences within the renowned Faena District, introducing a new residential tower with 23 private units alongside the preserved Versailles Hotel, which will host 56 Aman-branded hotel rooms. Designed by world-renowned Japanese architect Kengo Kuma, the structure epitomizes minimalist elegance with a unique synthesis of angular lines, soft forms, and Japanese-inspired materials that honor Miami Beach’s Art Deco heritage. Kuma’s vision allows for fluid transitions between indoor and outdoor spaces, creating a visually stunning building that harmonizes with the landscape.
The project team features Revuelta Architecture International and RJ Heisenbottle Architects, while Suffolk Construction serves as the general contractor. Together, they are embracing Miami Beach’s growing trend of adaptive reuse, rejuvenating historic structures with contemporary architectural techniques. This approach is embodied in the Versailles Hotel’s restoration, a 1940s architectural gem that now offers a blend of historical charm and modern luxury in the Faena District.
While the exact construction timeline remains to be finalized, industry sources, including YIMBY, predict groundbreaking early next year, with completion expected around mid-2027. The Aman Miami Beach Residences promise to bring a refined architectural presence to the area and further elevate Miami Beach as a destination for high-end residential and hospitality experiences, cementing its status in the global luxury real estate market.

Each residence comes with custom Italian kitchens designed by Molteni and Michele Bönan Interiors, European appliances, and Italian marble finishes. The bathrooms feature Italian cabinetry and luxury paneling, adding to the high-end experience. Private elevators provide an exclusive arrival experience, while in-home automation systems and advanced lighting controls bring modern convenience to each residence.
Four Seasons Private Residences Coconut Grove promises an exceptional lifestyle with an extensive suite of resident amenities, including a dedicated restaurant, library, fitness center with yoga rooms, spa facilities with cold plunge and hammam, children’s areas, private event rooms, and a spacious pool deck and bar lounge. All areas are serviced by Four Seasons, delivering the brand’s legendary service even without a hotel presence. The development also offers a dedicated Director of Residences, concierge services, housekeeping, butler service, in-residence dining, valet, and wellness programming.
Set in a serene, culturally vibrant neighborhood, the Four Seasons Private Residences Coconut Grove provides residents with access to Miami’s finest local boutiques, restaurants, and some of the top schools in the country, fostering a close-knit, walkable community lifestyle.

Santander Tower Set to Rise in Brickell – New Utility Agreement Finalized with Miami-Dade County
Santander Bank’s affiliate has taken a significant step forward with plans for its new development on Brickell Avenue. A recently finalized agreement with Miami-Dade County, dated October 11th, grants the bank the necessary utilities to power its ambitious tower project, dubbed Santander Tower. This high-rise is set to become a major addition to the Miami skyline, bringing a mixed-use tower with ample amenities and office spaces to the heart of Brickell.
According to documents, Santander Tower is designed as a high-rise complex that will stand 41 stories tall and reach a height of 765 feet. It will be designed by acclaimed architectural firms Handel Architects and Bernardi & Peschard Arquitectura, merging innovative design with functionality to create a seamless addition to Brickell’s ever-growing skyline.
Here’s what the building is set to include:
Office Space: A substantial 635,000 square feet of premium office space.
Retail: 60,000 square feet dedicated to retail establishments, making the tower a central shopping hub.
Dining: A 50,000-square-foot full-service restaurant area to cater to professionals, residents, and visitors.
Fitness Center/Gym: 20,000 square feet allocated for a state-of-the-art fitness center, providing wellness amenities for office tenants and residents alike.
A demolition permit for the site has already been issued, paving the way for initial preparations. The tower is set to bring 1,496 parking spaces, per an earlier filing with the City of Miami, which should alleviate some of the parking demands in the area.
Santander Tower is expected to offer a blend of work, retail, dining, and wellness spaces, catering to the needs of both local professionals and residents. Brickell Avenue remains one of Miami’s most sought-after locations, and this project will add substantial value to the area’s urban landscape, supporting continued growth and development in Miami’s financial district.
New 600-Unit Apartment Development Planned at Pullman Miami Airport Hotel Site
London + Regional Properties, operating through its subsidiary LR Miami Airport Hotel, LLC, recently submitted an Administrative Site Plan Review (ASPR) application to Miami-Dade County on October 24th, revealing plans for a new residential project at the Pullman Miami Airport Hotel site at 5800 Blue Lagoon Drive. This ambitious proposal includes two eight-story mixed-use buildings on the hotel’s current parking lot, bringing 600 new residential units to the area. The developer initially purchased this 10-acre property, which houses a 15-story hotel with 281 rooms, back in 2019.
The development envisions two distinct buildings, each housing approximately 300 units with sizes varying from 570 to 1,718 square feet, spanning studio, one-, two-, and three-bedroom layouts. Key features include three parking structures totaling 1,344 spaces, with 1,020 spaces allocated for the apartments and 324 reserved for hotel guests. Additionally, the parking facility closest to the hotel will incorporate 6,000 square feet of ground-floor retail space. Residents will also have access to two pool and clubhouse areas, measuring 6,200 and 4,900 square feet, respectively.
The east building will contain 319 units across its eight floors, with:
32 studio units averaging 578 sq. ft.
191 one-bedroom units averaging 803 sq. ft.
90 two-bedroom units averaging 1,093 sq. ft.
6 three-bedroom units averaging 1,380 sq. ft.
The total leasable area for this building is projected at 278,600 square feet. The parking plan includes 452 spaces, divided into ADA, van, and standard spots, with a consistent distribution of 30 to 42 units per floor featuring a variety of floor plans.
The west building will offer 281 units across eight floors, comprising:
32 studio units averaging 561 sq. ft.
151 one-bedroom units averaging 768 sq. ft.
98 two-bedroom units averaging 1,108 sq. ft.
The total leasable space here will cover 242,492 square feet, and parking will be available in the form of 420 spaces, including 8 ADA-accessible spaces, with no compact or tandem options.
An essential component of the ASPR application includes a request to adjust the site’s inclusion in the Blue Lagoon Development of Regional Impact (DRI) to align with the project’s goals. The developer is pursuing variances to amend zoning conditions, particularly regarding parking and setback regulations, to better accommodate the new residential structures. Designed as a transit-oriented development under the Miami-Dade County SMART Corridor Subzone guidelines, this project is strategically located within a quarter-mile of the East-West Corridor of the SMART Program.
London + Regional Properties has partnered with an experienced development team to execute this project:
Architect: Bizi Arq, based in Palmetto Bay
Civil Engineer: Hadonne
Landscape Architect: Kimley-Horn
Traffic Consultant: Traf Tech Engineering, Inc.
The project application further requests an exception to continue hotel operations during construction, emphasizing a smooth transition to accommodate both current and new uses.
This proposal, if approved, will transform the existing Pullman Miami Airport Hotel site into a modern mixed-use destination, enhancing residential options and bringing convenient transit and lifestyle amenities to Miami’s Blue Lagoon area.

Leading real estate developer Related Group, in collaboration with Manhattan-based developer Tricap, marked a significant milestone with the “topping off” ceremony for NoMad Residences Wynwood, the debut residential project by the iconic NoMad Hotels and its parent company, Sydell Group. Situated in the heart of Miami’s vibrant Wynwood Arts District, the nine-story luxury condominium tower has already seen over 80% of its residences contracted. With Beauchamp Construction overseeing the build, the project is on track for completion in Q4 2025.
Designed by the renowned architectural firm Arquitectonica and featuring interiors by DesignAgency, NoMad Residences Wynwood offers a curated collection of 329 fully furnished homes, ranging from chic studios to spacious two-bedroom residences. Each unit is designed with the NoMad brand’s signature touch of luxury, including floor-to-ceiling windows, private balconies, and high-end finishes.

Edgardo Defortuna of Fortune International Group and Shahab Karmely of Kar Properties Launch Faena Residences Miami
Miami’s skyline is set to welcome a stunning new addition as developers Edgardo Defortuna of Fortune International Group and Shahab Karmely of KAR Properties collaborate with Alan Faena to create the Faena District along the Miami River. This ambitious project includes the development of Faena Residences, a 440-unit luxury condominium development that promises to transform the area.
Located at 90 Southwest Third Street in Miami, the Faena Residences project will replace the previously planned One River Point. The two-tower development, connected by a striking sky bridge, was designed by the late renowned architect Rafael Viñoly. Construction is slated to begin in early 2026, with sales expected to launch later this year. Units will range in price from $1 million to over $4 million.
Fortune International Group joined KAR Properties as a co-developer in late 2022, bringing new energy to the project. According to Defortuna, the developers aim to be in full swing by Art Basel Miami Beach, one of the world’s premier art events. “We’ll be in full force by the time Art Basel rolls around,” he noted, underscoring the team’s enthusiasm for the development.
The Faena Residences will include an impressive 45,000-square-foot amenity space in the sky bridge, which will be designed and programmed by Faena himself. The space is set to feature a variety of wellness-focused facilities, all aimed at promoting longevity and well-being—a hallmark of Faena’s development ethos.
This project marks the second major South Florida real estate venture for Alan Faena, following the successful completion of the Faena District in Miami Beach, which includes Faena House, Faena Hotel, and Faena Forum. Backed by billionaire Len Blavatnik, the Faena District in Miami Beach has become synonymous with luxury, art, and world-class amenities. The new Faena Residences Miami looks to continue this legacy, offering a private park, wellness facilities, a marina, and public art installations as part of a larger three-block phased development along the river.
In late 2022, Fortune and KAR secured a $38 million loan from Bank OZK, a line of credit aimed at supporting the project’s sales and marketing efforts. The developers are optimistic about the future of the Faena District along the Miami River, confident that it will become a defining part of Miami’s growing luxury real estate market.
Karmely’s original vision for the 60-story towers, first revealed in 2014, included ambitious features like a three-story floating glass sky bridge and a 55th-floor members-only “Sky Club” with high-end amenities such as restaurants, a cigar lounge, and a screening room. Though the final plans have evolved, the Faena Residences Miami remains poised to offer a unique and exclusive living experience.
The Faena Residences Miami is just one of several developments that will reshape the Miami River area. A recent analysis by The Real Deal found that more than a dozen projects are in various stages of development along the river, with plans to add over 10,500 condo and apartment units. Notable among these is Related Group’s Baccarat, a 75-story, 355-unit tower set to rise at 99 Southeast Fifth Street on the south side of the river.
With its prime location, striking design, and emphasis on wellness, the Faena Residences Miami is set to become a landmark in the city’s evolving luxury real estate market.
