Massive 80-Story Tower Planned for Brickell by Prosper Group and Forte Development
Prosper Group and Forte Development are moving forward with plans for a striking 80-story mixed-use tower in Brickell, designed by Miami-based ODP Architects. Recently submitted through Miami-Dade County’s Rapid Transit Zone (RTZ) program, the proposal would bring an impressive 945-foot-tall development to 1040 South Miami Avenue—just steps from the Brickell Metromover station.
The tower is expected to deliver a total of 250 condominium units, 48 condo-hotel residences, and 100 hotel rooms, along with 322 parking spaces and nearly 1,900 square feet of restaurant space. The development will also include a robust lineup of wellness-focused amenities such as IV therapy, cold plunge pools, red light therapy, and infrared saunas—positioning the project at the forefront of luxury urban living.
The project is being developed by 1040 S Miami Development LLC, an entity formed by Jay Roberts of Prosper Group and Marius Fortelni of Forte Development. The developers say the building will help shape Brickell’s next chapter, combining high-rise residential, hospitality, and retail in a walkable, transit-oriented setting.
The 0.6-acre site was previously designated for a Virgin Hotel, but the revised plan embraces a more dynamic, multi-use approach. Thanks to its RTZ classification, the project bypasses traditional City of Miami zoning regulations, allowing for a faster entitlement path.
While no official construction timeline has been released, the proposed tower signals continued momentum in Brickell’s high-rise boom—and a bold new addition to Miami’s evolving skyline.
$25M Loan Fuels Launch of Continuum Club & Residences in North Bay Village
Continuum Company, a prominent real estate development firm with offices in New York City and Miami, has closed on a $25 million pre-development loan to advance the Continuum Club & Residences, a planned 32-story luxury condominium tower rising at 1755 John F. Kennedy Causeway in North Bay Village, Florida. The financing, provided by Benmark Capital—a vertically integrated real estate private equity and debt investment firm—marks a major milestone for the highly anticipated waterfront project, which has already secured contracts for 50% of its 198 luxury units.
The loan will be used to support site preparation and pre-construction activities, enabling Continuum to maintain momentum as the North Bay Village area undergoes a major revitalization. Developed in partnership with Aksoy Holdings, the project is Continuum Company’s second Miami venture, following its iconic Continuum South Beach.
Joe Moser, Director at Benmark Capital, added, “Continuum Club & Residences is exceptionally well-positioned to benefit from the significant investment and infrastructure improvements underway in North Bay Village. We are proud to play a role in bringing this transformative project to fruition and to continue expanding our footprint in the Miami market.”
Designed by renowned architecture firm Arquitectonica, with interiors by Durukan Design and landscape architecture by Martha Schwartz Partners, the development will offer over 60,000 square feet of lifestyle amenities. Planned features include multiple resort-style pools, a waterfront fitness center and spa, curated dining venues, a private marina, and an extensive suite of wellness-focused services. The project officially broke ground in March 2025, with completion targeted for early 2028.
“Securing this pre-development loan from Benmark Capital is a testament to the strength of our vision for Continuum Club & Residences and the confidence in our team’s ability to deliver exceptional value,” said Ian Bruce Eichner, Chairman and CEO of Continuum Company. “The tremendous support from our financial partners underscores the unprecedented demand for luxury waterfront living in Miami’s emerging neighborhoods. This financing will enable us to maintain our momentum as we transform North Bay Village into Miami’s next premier destination.”
As development accelerates, Continuum Club & Residences is poised to redefine luxury living in North Bay Village, offering a rare combination of prime waterfront access, elevated design, and exclusive lifestyle offerings in one of Miami’s most dynamic growth corridors.
