Ten Museum Park Pet Policy Change

Ten Museum Park Pet Policy Change

At a recent board meeting, the Residential Board of Directors for Ten Museum Park voted and passed to overturn the pet policy.  Once again, renters will be permitted to have a maximum of two pets per unit with a combined total weight not to exceed 100 pounds.  All unit owners and renters will required to fill out a pet registration form, submit a photo of their pet(s), and remit a non-refundable $50 pet fee per pet.  The policy change will go into effect starting December 19, 2014.

In my opinion, this is great news for unit owners in the building, especially for investors.  There have been so many times that I have had to turn away prospective renters from Ten Museum Park simply because they have a pet.  Up until around August 2013, Ten Museum Park had been a pet-friendly building and a favorite among pet owners due to its open floor plans.  The change should increase rental demand for units at Ten Museum Park, which should in turn have a positive impact on rental prices.  As it stands, rental inventory is low in the building.  Currently, there are just 6 units available for rent at Ten Museum Park of 200 total units.  With the newly opened, $40M Museum Park right across the  street, I am sure Ten Museum Park will once again be a favorite among dog owners.

Just Listed – Unit 2402 at Ten Museum Park – Asking $969,000

Ten Museum Park unit 2402

I am pleased to introduce my newest listing at Ten Museum Park – unit 2402 – a beautiful 2 bedroom, 2.5 bath, bi-level loft with over 1,800 interior square feet and a private balcony overlooking the newly opened Museum Park.  The property features soaring 20-foot ceilings with floor-to-ceiling glass windows; stainless steel appliances by Sub-Zero, Miele, and Bosch; a Terrazzo-topped custom kitchen island; utility room with full-size washer and dryer; a full glass-enclosed shower with rainfall shower head; and direct, unobstructed views of the Atlantic Ocean, Biscayne Bay, and Miami Beach skyline.

As of this posting, unit 2402 is the best priced unit in the building among those that offer a direct water view.  As you may recall, I recently listed and sold unit 1802 – a 2 bedroom located six floors directly below unit 2402.  That one  received multiple offers and went under contract within 7 days.  With peak season right around the corner, I am confident that interest in this property will be equally as great.

Below, you will find additional photographs of unit 2402 at Ten Museum Park.  If you or someone you know have an interest in viewing this property in person, please contact me via email at [email protected] or on my cell phone at 786-247-6332.

Paramount at Miami Worldcenter – Preconstruction Condo Sales Coming Soon

Paramount Miami Worldcenter condos

The moment is almost upon us – a moment that has been in the making since 2008 when the Miami City Commission approved a development agreement with Miami Worldcenter and endorsed its Master Plan for Downtown Miami.  Fast forward to the present and that Plan is about to become a reality.  Spanning nearly 30 acres with projected costs over $1.5B, Miami Worldcenter will be the second largest urban development in the United States.  It will include 765,000 square feet of signature retail anchored by Bloomingdale’s and Macy’s, 4.5 acres of open space, 7,000 new parking spaces, and an ultra-modern Marriott Marquis World Convention Center Hotel with 1,800 rooms, 600,000 square feet of convention space, and an 80,000 square foot outdoor event deck.  To top it all off – literally – the Master Plan for Miami Worldcenter will include multiple residential towers with over 1,000 units.

The first residential tower to launch will be Paramount Miami Worldcenter – a luxury condo development rising over 700 feet with 60 stories and 466 total condo units.  Yesterday evening, along with a few of my close clients, I received a full presentation and must say that I was blown away.  I am not at liberty to divulge much else in such a public forum but will say that that Friends & Family pricing is set to launch in the coming weeks followed by a more public launch towards the end of this year.  If you have even the faintest of interest, please do not hesitate to contact me for additional details. You may reach me at [email protected] or on my cell phone at 786-247-6332.

To give you a better sense for Miami Worldcenter’s Master Plan, I have included a few videos below:

Circuit Layout for Formula E Miami ePrix

Formula E Miami ePrix Race Course

 

Earlier today, Mayor of Miami Tomas Regalado formally announced that Miami will host “the first electric single-seater race in America”.  The Miami ePrix will take place in Downtown Miami on an eight turn, 1.35-mile circuit down Biscayne Boulevard and looping the American Airlines Arena, home to the Miami Heat.  The course will also run along the newly opened Museum Park, offering plenty of space for spectators to watch the race from street-level, as well as in front of Downtown Miami condo high-rises Marinablue, 900 Biscayne Bay, Ten Museum Park, and Marquis Residences.  The race is set for March 14, 2015.

FIA Formula E Championship Race Coming to Downtown Miami on March 14, 2015

Formula e Championship race car

How exciting!  On March 14, 2015, Formula E race cars will be racing through the streets of Downtown Miami. The 2014/2015 FIA Formula E Championship will be contested over 10 rounds taking place on city-centre circuits around the world. Miami was chosen as one of those cities and will have electric race cars racing down Biscayne Boulevard.  A formal announcement will be made this upcoming Monday, October 20, 2014.

For those who have lived in Miami long enough to remember, you may recall that, up until 1995, Champ Car (formerly known as CART) race cars raced on a speedway track located at Bicentennial Park (currently known as Museum Park) in Downtown Miami. In 1996, the race was moved to the newly opened $70M Homestead-Miami Speedway track located about an hour south of Downtown Miami in Homestead, Florida.  The return of race car driving to Downtown Miami, in my opinion, is beyond exciting.  As one might guess, the various condos in Downtown Miami situated along Biscayne Boulevard will provide a front row seat to all the action.  Start your engines!

Update: Formula E Miami ePrix race track revealed

Demolition of the BP Gas Station in Downtown Miami – [VIDEO]

Demolition of BP gas station at 1000 Biscayne Blvd

As mentioned in my previous post entitled “Gas Station Closes; One Thousand Museum is One Step Closer“, the BP gas station located at 1000 Biscayne Boulevard in Downtown Miami has closed up shop to pave way for the start of construction of One Thousand Museum – an ultra-luxury residential condo development designed by world-renowned architect Zaha Hadid.  Yesterday afternoon, I was able to get some great footage of the demolition that was well underway by that point.  The footage provides three points of view of the action.  As you will see, the underground fuel tanks had already been removed and were being crushed like aluminum cans by the bulldozer. Fun times!

Gas Station Closes; One Thousand Museum is One Step Closer

One Thousand Museum Development Process Has Begun

Miami is one step closer to being graced with her presence.  One Thousand Museum has checked off yet another milestone on its roadway to fruition.  The BP gas station, located at the corner of 10th Street & Biscayne Boulevard, is now officially closed.  Earlier this morning, while out for a walk, I noticed the parameter of the gas station had been taped off and spotted workers who were in the process of dismantling gas station fixtures.

Keep in mind that prior to development commencing, the remediation process must be completed.  I have no idea as to how long that process normally takes but was told a few months ago that construction was guaranteed to begin by the end of this year.

For those unfamiliar, One Thousand Museum is a 62-story architectural masterpiece designed by world-renowned architect Zaha Hadid.  The ultra-luxury tower will have just 83 museum-quality residences, comprised of 4 duplex townhouses, 70 half-floor units, 8 full-floor penthouses, and 1 double-story/full floor penthouse.  Floor plans range from 4,500 to 15,000 interior square feet and prices range from $5.2M to $45M.
