House of Wellness Brickell Launches Sales: A 34-Story Wellness-Focused Condo Tower in the Heart of Brickell
A New Wellness-Integrated Condominium Brand Debuts in Miami
North Development has officially launched sales for House of Wellness Brickell, a groundbreaking wellness-integrated condominium concept located at 152 SW 9th Street in Brickell. The 34-story tower will feature 656 condominium residences and introduces a new residential model designed to make wellness-driven, high-design urban living more accessible.
The debut of House of Wellness follows the strong sell-out performance of North Development’s Domus FLATS concept (Domus Brickell Center and Domus Brickell Park), building on that momentum with a brand focused on integrating wellness, hospitality-inspired services, and efficient urban design. Sales are officially underway, with a launch celebration planned in March and the opening of the project’s sales gallery to follow.
Developed by North Development — founded by Oak Capital and Edifica — the project benefits from more than 70 delivered projects and decades of international hospitality and residential development experience. Architecture is led by Studio Mc+G, with interior design by Urban Robot, creating a contemporary and design-forward aesthetic.
656 Residences with Studio, One-, and Two-Bedroom Floor Plans Starting at $390,000
House of Wellness Brickell offers a curated mix of studio, one-, and two-bedroom floor plans, with pricing starting at $390,000. The residences are intentionally compact and efficiently designed, pairing smart layouts with bold contemporary finishes to maximize livability in the urban core.
Homes feature 9-foot-4-inch-high ceilings, finished flooring throughout, porcelain bathroom tile, two-tone cabinetry with terrazzo countertops, and premium appliance packages including cooktop, refrigerator, dishwasher, and speed oven. Select residences will offer polished concrete balconies and sweeping views of the Brickell skyline and Biscayne Bay.
Five stories of private parking, in-house professional management by North Management, and 24-hour concierge and security further elevate the residential experience.
The Integrated Wellness Method: A Structured Approach to Everyday Living
What truly differentiates House of Wellness is its Integrated Wellness Method, a structured, ongoing wellness program built directly into daily life. Each resident begins with a full-body health assessment upon move-in, establishing a personalized baseline. Ongoing evaluations track progress over time, supported by curated services and guided programming.
The wellness program is overseen by a dedicated Lifestyle Director and supported by intelligent technology and a dedicated wellness app. Residents will have access to on-site professionals including nutritionists, personal trainers, physical therapists, massage therapists, estheticians, IV therapy services, and more.
In addition, the building incorporates a building-wide water purification system in partnership with CLEAR, reinforcing the project’s health-forward approach.

Sneak Peek at Una Residences as Closings Set to Begin This Month
Closings are set to begin this month at Una Residences, the 45-story, 135-unit luxury waterfront condominium in South Brickell developed by OKO Group and Cain International and designed by Adrian Smith + Gordon Gill Architecture (AS+GG).
Rising directly along Biscayne Bay, Una offers expansive two- to five-bedroom floor plans with sweeping water views and private elevator access in most residences. The tower is crowned by two extraordinary triplex penthouses, each featuring a private rooftop terrace and swimming pool — among the most exclusive residential offerings on the Miami waterfront.
With construction complete and interiors finalized, the building now transitions from development milestone to residential occupancy — and newly released drone photos offer a striking first look at Una in its finished form.
A Sculptural Waterfront Tower with Rare Engineering
The new drone images highlight:
Una’s elegant curvature and rippling glass terraces
Its elevated pedestal and landscaped bayfront setting
Unobstructed views of Biscayne Bay and the Atlantic Ocean
A rare deep underground parking garage — particularly notable in Miami’s high water table environment
Unlike many towers in Miami that rely on above-grade parking due to sea-level constraints, Una features one of the city’s deepest underground parking garages. This engineering achievement required advanced waterproofing and structural planning given Miami’s proximity to Biscayne Bay and high groundwater levels — a notable differentiator for residents who value protected, secure parking.
A Global Architectural Pedigree Arrives in Miami
Una Residences is the first Miami residential tower designed by Adrian Smith + Gordon Gill Architecture (AS+GG) — a firm recognized internationally for its elegant yet performance-driven architecture. The firm also developed 830 Brickell, a recently completed Class-A office tower in Brickell.
Adrian Smith, before co-founding AS+GG, famously designed the Burj Khalifa while at SOM — the tallest building in the world. That expertise in innovative high-rise design carries forward into Una’s refined vertical proportions and sculptural form.
Together, Smith and Gordon Gill have collaborated on internationally significant projects including Jeddah Tower, planned to exceed one kilometer in height, and Central Park Tower, the tallest residential building globally.
With Una Residences, that global design pedigree now arrives on the Miami waterfront — contributing a distinctive mark to the skyline.
A Boutique Luxury Tower in a Mega-Tower Market
Developed by OKO Group and Cain International, Una was intentionally conceived as an intimate, design-forward alternative to larger Brickell supertalls.
Highlights include:
135 exclusive residences
Private elevators servicing most units
Expansive bayfront terraces
Spa, fitness center, and curated amenity spaces
Deep underground parking garage — rare in a city defined by its water table
With closings set to begin later this month, early buyers who secured pre-construction pricing will begin taking delivery of residences in one of Brickell’s most architecturally distinctive buildings.
A Major Milestone for South Brickell
The commencement of closings at Una Residences marks one of the most notable tower deliveries in the South Brickell waterfront submarket.
With limited newly delivered bayfront inventory, Una now transitions into the resale and immediate occupancy phases — positioning it as one of the most desirable luxury waterfront condominium addresses in Miami.
Viceroy Brickell Launches 7% Leaseback Program for New Buyers
A new leaseback incentive is coming to Brickell — and it’s one that will immediately catch the attention of both lifestyle buyers and real estate investors.
Viceroy Brickell has officially announced a 7% Leaseback Program, offering buyers professionally managed rental income during a fixed leaseback term while maintaining ownership of their residence.
This limited-time program applies to new sales contracts only and is designed to provide predictable income, simplified ownership, and a reduced upfront deposit structure.
What Is the Viceroy Brickell 7% Leaseback Program?
The Viceroy Brickell Leaseback Program allows purchasers to lease their residence back to the developer under a fixed-term agreement after closing.
In return, owners receive quarterly payments equal to 7% annually of the purchase price, paid in arrears over a two-year term.
Key features include:
Fixed lease payments, not tied to nightly rental performance
Professional management through the Viceroy rental program
No short-term rental management required by the owner
This structure is particularly attractive for buyers seeking passive income without day-to-day operational involvement.
Program Highlights at a Glance
According to the official program details:
7% annual leaseback, paid quarterly
Two-year lease term
Available for new contracts only
Residences are professionally managed by Viceroy
Owners retain responsibility for:
Maintenance fees
Insurance
Real estate taxes
Example Provided by the Developer
Purchase Price: $900,000
Annual Lease Payment: $63,000
Total Leaseback Income Over Two Years: $126,000
Reduced Deposit Structure: Just 20% Until Closing
In addition to the leaseback incentive, Viceroy Brickell is offering a total-deposit structure of just 20% until closing, allowing buyers to lock in a contract with significantly less capital tied up during the pre-construction phase.
This is a notable advantage compared to many Brickell developments that require 30–40% in staged deposits prior to delivery.
Why This Matters for Brickell Condo Buyers
Brickell remains one of Miami’s most competitive submarkets, but rising prices and interest rates have made predictable income strategies increasingly important.
The Viceroy Brickell Leaseback Program appeals to:
Buyers who want income certainty rather than market-dependent rentals
Out-of-state and international buyers seeking hands-off ownership
Investors looking to offset carrying costs during the first two years of ownership
Because payments are fixed and contractually defined, this program removes short-term rental volatility from the equation.
Pricing and Delivery Timeline
Residences start in the $600,000s
Estimated delivery: Q1 2026
This positions the project as one of the more accessible branded condo opportunities in Brickell, particularly when combined with the leaseback and reduced deposit structure.
Important Disclaimer for Buyers
As noted by the developer:
Participation in the leaseback program is voluntary
The program is offered for a limited time
Leaseback terms must be finalized prior to contract execution
Payments are not a guarantee of future rental performance after the leaseback term ends
Buyers should review all program terms carefully and confirm eligibility before signing.
Final Thoughts
The Viceroy Brickell 7% Leaseback Program stands out as a strategic incentive in today’s Brickell condo market — blending brand-backed management, predictable income, and lower upfront capital requirements.
For buyers seeking a balance between lifestyle ownership and short-term income stability, this program is worth a closer look.

Ytech Secures $565M Construction Loan for The Residences at 1428 Brickell
On November 3, 2025, JLL’s Capital Markets team announced the arrangement of approximately $565.35 million in construction financing for The Residences at 1428 Brickell, a 70-story ultra-luxury condominium tower being developed by Ytech in Miami’s Brickell Financial District. The floating-rate loan has a term of approximately 4.25 years and is provided by senior lender JPMorgan Chase and junior lender Sculptor Real Estate. This financing marks one of the largest construction loans closed for a condo development in South Florida in 2025, signaling strong institutional confidence in Ytech’s project and the Brickell luxury condo market more broadly.
Project Overview and Unique Features
The Residences at 1428 Brickell will comprise 195 luxury homes spanning two- to four-bedroom plus den configurations, with unit sizes ranging from approximately 1,800 to 8,900 square feet. Designed by renowned architecture firms ACPV Architects (led by Antonio Citterio) and Arquitectonica, the tower will feature an innovative “solar backbone” on its west façade that incorporates more than 500 photovoltaic-integrated glass panels (nearly 20,000 square feet) to partially power the building. Additionally, the development will offer roughly 80,000 square feet of resident-only amenities—such as resort-level pools, a two-story Owners Club, wellness facilities and a rooftop observatory—reinforcing the ultra-luxury positioning of the building. Groundbreaking took place in November 2024 and the largest mat foundation pour ever executed in Brickell was completed in September 2025. 1428 Brickell is slated for delivery in Q4 2028.
Sales Momentum and Market Implications
As of October 2025, the project had achieved approximately 57% presold status, demonstrating meaningful early demand despite a broader macro environment of rising costs and shifting condo market dynamics in South Florida. International buyers, particularly from Latin America and Europe, as well as domestic buyers from cities like New York, Chicago and San Francisco, are reportedly participating in the sales.
The successful financing underscores the market’s confidence in high-end condo developments in Brickell—especially those that offer differentiated features like sustainability integration, large-format units, and full-service amenities. The scale of the loan also suggests that lenders continue to deploy significant capital into luxury residential product even as some sectors of real estate face headwinds.
Why This Deal Matters for Miami Real Estate
Capital markets validation: A $565 million loan demonstrates that financial institutions are willing to back large-scale luxury condo projects in Miami, even amid rising interest rates and construction cost pressures.
Sustainability and innovation: The solar-integrated façade sets a new benchmark for ultra-luxury residential product by combining high-design with energy-producing glass—an attribute that may help differentiate in a competitive market.
Luxury product demand: The presale performance (57%+ sold) highlights strong buyer demand for larger, premium residences—averaging over 1,800 square feet—in Brickell, a neighborhood traditionally known for smaller, investor-oriented units.
Construction momentum: With the mat pour already completed and delivery scheduled for 2028, the project is now entering a phase of execution with secured financing, which often de-risks the proposition for buyers and lenders.
In summary, by securing a landmark financing package and progressing into construction, The Residences at 1428 Brickell is poised to become a standout entry in Miami’s ultra-luxury condo segment. For developers, lenders, buyers and market watchers alike, this deal reflects both the elevated expectations of luxury real estate today and the evolving standards for design, sustainability and amenities.
Kerzner International Announces SIRO Brickell — a Wellness-Focused Landmark Coming to the Heart of Brickell
Brickell’s evolution into a world-class urban destination continues with the announcement of SIRO Brickell, the first U.S. outpost of Kerzner International’s wellness-driven hospitality brand. Following the $45 million acquisition of a prime site previously owned by Swire Properties, Kerzner has now revealed plans for a transformative mixed-use project that will blend fitness, recovery, and luxury living in the heart of Miami’s Financial District.
A New Kind of Urban Retreat
Scheduled to open in 2030, SIRO Brickell will feature 180 hotel rooms, 350 branded residences, and state-of-the-art fitness and recovery amenities. The project marks the fourth in SIRO’s expanding global pipeline—joining upcoming destinations in Los Cabos, Riyadh, and Tokyo—and will serve as a showcase for the brand’s mission to redefine hospitality through wellbeing, performance, and purpose-driven living.
According to Kerzner International CEO Philippe Zuber, “SIRO is our disruptor brand; designed to meet the evolving demands of a new generation of travelers who prioritize wellbeing, performance and purpose.” Miami, he added, offers the perfect stage for the brand’s U.S. debut.
Local Expertise, Global Vision
To bring the project to life, Kerzner has partnered with Miami-based 13th Floor Investments and Forse Holdings as local development partners. Both firms bring extensive experience shaping high-impact destinations across South Florida. 13th Floor, led by Managing Principal Arnaud Karsenti, has developed several transformative projects including Link at Douglas and Casa Cipriani Miami. “Brickell has become one of the world’s leading global destinations,” said Karsenti. “This makes it the ideal location to launch SIRO’s flagship project in the U.S.”
A Catalyst for Brickell’s Next Chapter
SIRO Brickell will rise at a time when Brickell is rapidly redefining itself as more than just a financial center. The neighborhood—home to some of Miami’s tallest towers, most exclusive residences, and a growing roster of world-class dining and retail—continues to attract global attention. The addition of a wellness-focused brand like SIRO further diversifies Brickell’s lifestyle offerings, catering to travelers and residents who value balance, health, and design-led living.
The Miami debut of SIRO comes amid a wave of U.S. expansion for Kerzner International, whose other flagship brands include Atlantis, One&Only, and Rare Finds. Later this year, Kerzner will unveil One&Only Moonlight Basin Resort and Private Homes in Montana, followed by a new property in New York’s Hudson Valley—further cementing its reputation for redefining luxury and lifestyle experiences around the world.

Historic Land Acquisition in Brickell: Oak Row Equities and Mariposa Real Estate Plan Transformative Development
In a monumental move for Miami’s real estate market, developers Oak Row Equities and Mariposa Real Estate have announced their agreement to acquire a property in Brickell, marking the largest land acquisition in the city’s history. The deal, valued at an astounding $520 million, is set to close in the fourth quarter of 2025 and promises to reshape the skyline of Miami.
Oak Row Equities has unveiled ambitious plans for the site, which will include ultra-luxury condominiums designed to redefine the standards of urban living. In a statement, the developer expressed its vision for “a landmark development that will redefine Miami’s skyline and set a new standard for urban luxury.”
The site’s zoning allows for over three million square feet of development, with permissions for several towers to rise to a supertall height of 1,049 feet. This ambitious project aims to create a transformative urban destination in the heart of Brickell.
“The Brickell Bay Drive assemblage presents a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to build a transformative project in the most exciting submarket in the City of Miami,” said Erik Rutter, Managing Partner at Oak Row Equities. His sentiments were echoed by David Weitz, Managing Partner at Oak Row Equities, who added, “We intend to collaborate with world-class talent to bring our vision to life.”
With the planned development, Oak Row Equities and Mariposa Real Estate aim to set a new benchmark for luxury and architectural excellence. The project will not only enhance the city’s skyline but also contribute significantly to Miami’s reputation as a global hub for luxury real estate.
As the project progresses, Miami’s residents and investors alike will eagerly anticipate the unveiling of what promises to be one of the most iconic developments in the city’s history. The future of Brickell has never looked more exciting.
House of Wellness Coming to Brickell
Miami’s skyline is set for another exciting addition with the proposed House of Wellness tower in Brickell. A pre-application has been filed with Miami-Dade County reviewers, signaling the start of what will become a 43-story luxury development right in the heart of Brickell.
Key Features of House of Wellness:
43 stories high
832 lodging units for guests seeking a luxurious stay
347 parking spaces to accommodate residents and visitors
A stunning rooftop pool deck on the 43rd floor, providing breathtaking views of the Miami skyline and beyond
What sets this project apart from other Miami developments is its approval pathway. The House of Wellness will be processed through Miami-Dade’s Rapid Transit Zone (RTZ), rather than the City of Miami’s traditional planning process. This move highlights the significance of its proximity to transit and the county’s focus on improving urban mobility and connectivity in key areas like Brickell.
Behind the Development
Developer: North at Brickell VI, LLC has taken the helm as the contract purchaser and developer of the property.
Architect: Studio MC+G, known for its modern and innovative architectural designs, is leading the project’s design and structure.
This wave of construction is redefining Brickell, adding both residential and hotel options, making it an increasingly desirable place for residents, tourists, and investors alike.
This hotel tower isn’t just another high-rise in Miami’s ever-evolving skyline; it is an exciting step forward in aligning luxury living with wellness-focused amenities. The rooftop pool deck, high-end accommodations, and location in one of Miami’s trendiest neighborhoods make this project one to watch.
As House of Wellness moves through the approval process, we’ll continue to monitor its progress and update you on its groundbreaking. With the growing number of major developments in Brickell, the neighborhood is set to continue its transformation into a hub of luxury, wellness, and modern urban living.
Summit Brickell Development Secures FAA Approval, Moves Forward with Updated Plans
The highly anticipated mixed-use development, Summit Brickell is set to redefine the skyline of Miami’s Brickell neighborhood. Located at 1015 Southwest 1st Avenue, this ambitious project recently achieved a significant milestone by securing approval from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). With this approval, the development is poised to rise 765 feet above ground, reaching a total height of 769 feet above sea level at its highest point. Designed by Corwil Architects and developed by Lore Development Group—a joint venture between Brazilian billionaire Daniel Dantas’ Opportunity investment firm and Leste Group—Summit Brickell promises to bring a dynamic blend of residential and commercial spaces to the heart of Miami.
Filed on April 5 and swiftly approved on May 21, Summit Brickell is planned as a 60-story structure with a total floor area ratio (FAR) of 717,740 square feet. The updated plans for the tower to include:
500 residential units
1,583 square feet of commercial space
500 parking spaces
Documents recently filed with Miami-Dade County in April provided updated renderings and plans for Summit Brickell. One of the notable changes is the reduction of the proposed structure from 69 to 60 stories. The updated plans also indicate the elevator bulkhead will now rise to 750 feet, significantly lower than the initially planned 843 feet, falling well within the heights approved by the FAA.
Summit Brickell is currently under review by Miami-Dade County planners as part of its Rapid Transit zoning plan, allowing it to bypass city review. However, a construction permit for the project has not yet been filed with the county.
The project’s material board highlights the variety of architectural features and elements that contribute to the overall design and aesthetic of the structure. Key features include:
Fine sand stucco/textured finish used throughout the elevations
Horizontal concrete pours/sculpted to exterior walls
Impact-resistant guardrail systems
Sliding glass doors with impact-resistant aluminum frame and glass
Fixed-lite, clear safety glass and impact-resistant guardrail system on balcony rails
Additionally, the building will feature:
Impact-resistant glass doors
Storm-resistant mesh screens
Parking garage breezeway
Perforated aluminum garage system panels
Decorative metal claddings
Aluminum sunshade systems
Summit Brickell will offer various unit types from the 14th through the 58th floor, including studios, one-bedroom, two-bedroom, and three-bedroom floor plans ranging from 500 to 1,418 square feet. The penthouse units on the 59th floor will range from 1,288 to 2,618 square feet. Residents will enjoy amenities on both the 13th floor and the 60th-floor rooftop. The parking garage is designed to occupy floors 2 through 12, ensuring ample space for residents and visitors.
While it remains unclear when the developer plans to break ground on the project, it is still navigating through the approval process, and no permits have been submitted as of May. Initially, groundbreaking for the project was tentatively scheduled for June 2024, with completion expected by summer 2027. However, given the current status, a groundbreaking towards the end of the year seems more likely, with completion potentially extending into late 2027.
