The Standard Residences Midtown Miami has officially broken ground. Standard Residences is being built by real estate and hospitality pioneers Standard International, Rosso Development, and Midtown Development.
Along with Miami District 2 Commissioner Sabina Covo, Jay Phillip Parker, CEO of Douglas Elliman Florida, President of Douglas Elliman Development Marketing Florida, Raymond Fort of Arquitectonica, Giancarlo Pietri of Urban Robot Associates, William J. Real of Civic Construction, and the South Florida broker community, Standard International’s Amar Lalvani and Rosso Development’s Carlos Rosso celebrated the groundbreaking.
The 12-story building is a collaboration between the highly regarded architecture firm Arquitectonica, renowned interior designers Urban Robot Associates, The Standard’s in-house design team, landscape architect Naturalficial, and Civic Construction acting as general contractor.
The project’s ground breaking speaker was Lalvani, Executive Chairman of Standard International, who emphasized the company’s longstanding ties to Miami and praised their collaboration with Carlos Rosso. The project’s lively environment and the need for such a lifestyle-driven building in a good location were stressed by Rosso, the founder of Rosso Development.
Standard is located at 3100 Northeast 1st Avenue in Midtown, tucked between the Design District and Wynwood. The development offers 34,000 square feet of carefully chosen amenity space and 228 residential units.
Upon completion, residents will have the chance to enjoy the distinctive style, amenities, and service of the renowned hotel brand. The building will be the first to provide flexible living, allowing owners to lease their units for periods as little as one month.
Between 432 square feet and 965 square feet in size, the units, which range from studios to two-bedroom homes, strike a balance between design and usability.
A 60-foot resort-style sunset pool on the rooftop, a renowned restaurant and bar, and wellness amenities like a cutting-edge fitness facility, an infrared sauna, yoga, and stretch studios are just a few of the amenities available. A karaoke bar, a screening room, co-working areas, Zoom rooms, and a private boardroom can be found on the social floor.
A small number of homes, starting at $499,900, are still available at The Standard Residences, which is anticipated to be finished by the end of 2024.

Vita Residences at Grove Isle Breaks Ground
Ugo Colombo of the CMC Group, one of Miami’s most well-known luxury developers, has started construction on Vita Residences at Grove Isle. The opulent boutique condominium is situated on the gated 20-acre private island of Grove Isle, which is close to the city’s fashionable Coconut Grove neighborhood.
The 65 exquisitely designed houses in the seven-story building, which is being constructed on the island’s final remaining beachfront parcel, will showcase unhindered panoramic bay views, exquisite detailing, and the finest materials and craftsmanship. The project is now under construction, and completion is anticipated in 24 to 28 months.
The majority of Vita at Grove Isle’s customers are from America, and more than 40% of the units there have already been pre-sold. The homes will range in size from 2,500 to 6,500 square feet and feature three-, four-, and four-bedroom units with dens. A group of twelve upscale penthouse houses will have private rooftop terraces with full-size swimming pools, full bathrooms, and summer kitchens that are each 3,400 to 6,600 square feet in size. Penthouses start at $12 million, with units starting at $5.5 million.
In order to create one-of-a-kind interior and amenity spaces for Vita at Grove Isle, Ugo Colombo collaborated with international architecture and design firm CallisonRTKL, regional architectural firm S & E Architects, and Italian designers Carlo and Paolo Colombo of A++ Architecture. The three buildings—Mare, Luce, and Sole—are designed to exhibit a singular architectural design and will provide a boutique living environment surrounded by beautiful, local vegetation. The graceful, curving shape of the structure, which was inspired by the island’s natural contours and maximizes views of the glittering Biscayne Bay, is a reflection of its distinctive Grove Isle position.
The waterfront retreat will offer a wide range of carefully chosen interior and outdoor amenities, including a private bayfront pool for residents exclusively, a poolside bar and lounge, a cutting-edge fitness facility, spa, and kids’ play area. Residents of Vita will also be given a house membership to the “Vita at Grove Isle Club,” which has lighted tennis, padel, and pickleball courts in addition to a club pool and a bar nearby. Additionally, residents will have access to the island’s private marina as well as a gourmet restaurant and bar offering lunch, supper, and cocktails that will be open to the general public.
Only the attention to detail in its design matches the level of preparation put into Vita at Grove Isle’s location and facilities. Each home will have a private elevator, a private foyer, modern open concept kitchens with hidden top-of-the-line appliances, elegant bathrooms with hand-selected book matched marble, masterfully crafted Italian stonework, custom Italian cabinetry, and pre-installed smart home technology like lighting, climate control, and water/air filtration systems, as well as at least 10-foot-high ceilings.
In addition to 24/7 valet service, private, individually covered garages with EV charging stations, accessible bike storage, and the most cutting-edge technology and WiFi capabilities installed throughout the building, residents also enjoy additional amenities.
Residents will also profit from Vita at Grove Isle’s personal concierge service, which will be available to help with a variety of arrangements and services, including home provisioning, housekeeping, child and pet care, personal shopping, private events, private drivers and transportation, car detailing, mail collection and forwarding, package deliveries, and more. This service is in addition to Vita at Grove Isle’s restaurant.
Additionally, Vita at Grove Isle residents will have access to the ‘Vita Linc’ app, a digital concierge service, which will enable them to register visitors and give them electronic keys, get in touch with the building’s management, send each other private messages, check on pending and delivered packages, access appliance manuals and condo documents, and request vehicles from valet.

Major Food Group and Terra Development Partner on New Condo Tower in Edgewater-The Villa
Major Food Group and Terra Development have announced their collaboration on a new waterfront development in Edgewater. Located at 710 NE 29th Street, The Villa, is planned to include 50 residential units.
In 2021, an application was filed with the Federal Aviation Administration for a 57 to 60 story tower at the proposed development site. The plan originally called for the demolition of two residential structures that are now located at 710 Northeast 29th Street and 530 Northeast 29th Street, just across from the Biscayne Beach Condominium.
Unknown who applied for the tower, but the lot’s existing zoning allows for a considerably taller multi-family building comparable to nearby new construction like Missoni Baia and Elysee Miami, all of which reach heights of 649 feet above sea level.
Harbor 29, a five-story condominium building with 15 units that was constructed in 1972 and is currently located at 710 Northeast 29th Street, occupies a plot of land that is around 12,600 square feet. The building occupies the entire corner of the ensemble and has the longest waterfront frontage.
On the other hand, 530 Northeast 29th Street, a 2-story residential structure with around 10 units on a 6,300-square-foot lot, was constructed in 1954. No recent sales of any units or property in general have been closed, according to Miami-Dade County’s Property Appraiser, so after receiving FAA approvals, the undisclosed developer will probably need to buy out the current owners to put together the assemblage, which should total close to 19,000 square feet.
Last year, Major Food Group was partnered with JDS Development for a supertall tower located in Brickell named 888 Brickell.
One Step Closer to Breaking Ground at St. Regis Residences Sunny Isles Beach
A utilities agreement between Fortune International Group and Château Group has been reached, allowing the St. Regis Residences Sunny Isles Beach, a two-tower residential complex planned at 18801 Collins Avenue in Sunny Isles Beach, to begin construction.
The utility agreement, which was signed on March 15th states the amenities, unit count, and parking.Patricia Anastassiadis, a designer based in So Paulo, and Arquitectonica are the interior and landscape architects listed for the project
Two 62-story towers are planned by the developers, which will be taller than any structures in the Sunny Isles Beach neighborhood. First to be finished, the 175-residence St. Regis Residences South Tower. The north tower can rise to 744 feet above ground level or 750 feet above sea level, according to FAA licenses that were approved in March 2022. The south tower is allowed to rise to 739 feet.
These heights will match the proposed height of the nearby Bentley Residences, making the north tower the tallest structure in the neighborhood based on roof height. La Playa Beach Associates LLC, a partnership between Chateau Group and Fortune, is the owner of the 4.7-acre property at 18801 Collins Avenue, which is situated on 435 linear square feet of shoreline property.
The shapes of the towers, which were influenced by the elliptical path of the Earth, convey a feeling of harmony with the natural environment. The project’s enormous curve is given a deeper significance while also creating a distinctive form that contrasts with the city skyline. The floor-to-ceiling windows of the apartments, which provide stunning views of the ocean, city, and Intracoastal, as well as the fine choice of materials and finishes, all bear witness to the meticulous attention to detail and skilled craftsmanship.
In less than six months, the property has already reached $750 million in reservations. The floor-plans for the units will range from 2,000 to 5,600 square feet for two to five bedrooms, as well as 6,600 to over 10,000 square feet for Sky Villas and Penthouses.
