Waldorf Astoria Residences Miami Sold the Largest Penthouse in the United States
The Waldorf Astoria Residences Miami’s 5-star luxury penthouse, which will grow to be the largest in the country and sit atop Miami’s first supertall tower, has been sold for an undisclosed sum. The tallest residential building south of Manhattan will be the five-story, 33,000+ square foot “Mansion in the Sky.”
For the future of real estate in Downtown Miami, the transaction represents a fortunate start. The unidentified client was looking for an upscale residence, and together with the development team, they created what will serve as the pinnacle of the buyer’s individual real estate portfolio as well as the Miami skyline.
Upon completion, this unique penthouse suspended 1,050 feet in the air, will occupy the top five floors of the skyscraper and provide unmatched vistas in every direction. The home will be just under 34,000 square feet in size and have 10 bedrooms, 11 and a half bathrooms, and ceiling heights of up to 25 feet.
A wall-street-style trading room, safe room, billiards area, private movie theater, screening room with two 90-inch theater screens, three wine cellars, full-scale bar, wellness center with cutting-edge equipment, massage rooms, infrared sauna, and a 20-car garage to house the owner’s extensive car collection are just a few of the extravagant amenities it will feature.
The sole usage of the tower’s private roof deck belongs to the mega-penthouse. Three cabanas, a huge pool, a swim-up tiki bar, an outdoor gym, and a multi-use court for racquetball, pickleball, and basketball are all located on the roof. Other features are currently being finished for the owner.
According to the Managing Partner of PMG, “This penthouse sale is an indicator of the strength and tenacity of the luxury real estate market in Miami, and just how special Waldorf Astoria is to buyers and brand enthusiasts. We are confident in the continued momentum at Waldorf Astoria Miami, and know the property will completely elevate the standard of luxury living as we know it.”
Construction on the Waldorf Astoria Residences Miami is expected to begin on October 27, 2022, and end in 2026.
In order to highlight Waldorf Astoria’s first foray into the Miami market, PMG, along with partners Greybrook, Mohari Hospitality, S2 Development, and the international hospitality business Hilton, set out to build a landmark beacon for the city of Miami. The goal is to offer an aesthetically spectacular structure with expertly built residences and unmatched amenities to Miami’s famous Biscayne Boulevard for residents and future hotel visitors to enjoy. The Waldorf Astoria Miami anticipates ushering in a new era for this magical city as the tallest residential structure south of New York and the first supertall tower in Florida.
The Waldorf Astoria Miami, which is situated at 300 Biscayne Boulevard, will have nine spiraling, offset glass cubes that are evenly placed and covered in what is sometimes described to as a “glass skin” to set it apart from other East Coast properties. In order to develop an iconic edifice in Downtown Miami that offers 360-degree views of Downtown Miami, Miami Beach, and the Atlantic Ocean, Sieger Suarez Architects and famous architect Carlos Ott collaborated.
Additionally, the developers collaborated with award-winning interior design company BAMO, which takes pride in designing enticing surroundings that flow, function, and inspire individuals to live and dream more completely. Along with guest rooms and suites inside the five-star hotel, the resort will have 360 private houses. Peacock Alley, a specialty restaurant, indoor/outdoor pre-function and event spaces, conference and boardrooms, a resort-style pool deck with private cabanas, a spa, and a fitness facility will all be considered signature areas.

501 First Residences Receives Construction Loan
Construction is moving forward at 501 First Residences with a new benchmark after developers receive a construction loan for $80.9 million.
This new 40-story tower with 448, will be developed by Aria Development Group and designed by Revuelta Architecture International, who also designed Wind and 900 Biscayne. 501 First Residences will be located at 501 Northeast 1st Avenue with views of downtown Miami and Biscayne Bay.
According to the Aria Development group, this particular development will be built to cater to the short-term rental market. The biggest perk is that there will be no rental restrictions. This means the resident can utilize any consumer platform (Vrbo, Expedia, Airbnb, etc.) to rent and each unit can be rented for 1 day or more.
The renderings reveal floor-to-ceiling windows and expansive balconies. The sleek structure is curved creating a horizontal and vertical grid-like design. The exact height of the development hasn’t been released but we can expect the 40-story high structure to be over 450 feet in height.
The loan of $80.924 million was arranged by Berkadia with the funding issued by Bank OZK with a floating 42-month interest-only loan.
On the property, demolition has already finished.
Although 501 First Residences is sold out, if you or someone you know has an interest in purchasing downtown Miami, please contact Lucas Lechuga via email at [email protected] or by phone at 786-247-6332.

Immersive Global Summit is Coming to Miami from December 5th through the 7th
The world’s global IT community will come together to support immersive technologies at the Immerse Global Summit (IGS), which is scheduled to begin next month at the Fontainebleau Hotel in Miami Beach from December 5 to 7.
With a number of keynote speakers, seminars, product demos, and other activities, the event will highlight the future of virtual, augmented, and mixed reality, blockchain, the internet of things (IoT), and the Metaverse.
To address how metaverse technologies are altering businesses and their operations, companies including Amazon, AT&T, Meta Platforms, Magic Leap, Qualcomm, Sony Interactive Entertainment, Unity Technologies, Lenovo, General Motors (GM), and others will take the XR stage.
Along with burgeoning small and medium enterprises (SMEs) like AMPD, Aequilibrium, Rooom, Immersal, Leai Inc, Emteq Labs, Departure Lounge, and a growing roster at the renowned Summit, additional guests at the A-list event will include Boeing, Agora, and the University of Miami.
The announcement comes as interest in the Metaverse, the upcoming communications platform fusing the Internet and spatial computing, is surging. Businesses are investigating use cases across all industries, including entertainment, smart manufacturing, advertising, and remote guidance, among others.
Miami, a developing tech hub in the US, has witnessed a significant increase in its rankings in the Dice Tech Job Report for the growth of tech jobs in the first half of 2022.
The Immerse Global Summit (IGS) was “thrilled” that AT&T would give the keynote address at the gathering, according to Nathan Pettyjohn, the founder, and president of the VR/AR Association (VRARA) and the IGS’s host.
Business leaders from various industries should attend the event, said Kris Kolo, Global Executive Director of VRARA, to “understand how immersive technologies are impacting their business.”
The announcement was released after the IGS’s European Summit, which was held in late September at the Savoy Palace on Madeira Island in Portugal, came to a close. At Europe’s emerging tech hub, more than 500 delegates discussed the future of the XR market as several organizations, businesses, and thought leaders expressed their perspectives.
Miami-Dade County and Miami Heat Cuts Naming Rights Ties with Cryptocurrency Exchange FTX for Miami Arena
Miami-Dade County and the NBA’s Miami Heat have ended their partnership with the insolvent cryptocurrency exchange FTX and are now looking for a new naming rights partner for their downtown Miami arena.
The statement followed the FTX group’s CEO resignation and bankruptcy filing in the US earlier on Friday, which marked the shocking demise of one of the biggest and most influential figures in the cryptocurrency business.
Miami-Dade County and Miami Heat stated in a joint statement on Friday night that they will cooperate to find a new naming rights partner for the stadium, which was only rebranded as FTX Arena last year, and that they find the reports concerning FTX to be “very upsetting.”
Like other cryptocurrency businesses, FTX has spent a lot of money sponsoring athletes. For the renaming of the Miami arena in June 2021, FTX reportedly signed a $135 million, 19-year contract. This deal would have also included $2 million annually to the Miami Heat.
A five-year agreement was also reached in 2021 for Major League Baseball to designate FTX as its official cryptocurrency exchange. FTX is also the Mercedes-AMG Petronas Formula One Team’s authorized
With the University of California, Berkeley negotiating a $17.5 million, 10-year naming rights arrangement for the school’s football stadium in 2021, even college sports have connections to FTX.
MM Club Miami Now Accepting Reservations
MM CLUB, a private club accessible only to MM members and guests, is officially open for reservations. Located on the second floor beneath MILA Restaurant, the MM Club was curated by Michelin Star Chefs Michael Collantes and Michael Michaelidis with a concise menu and customized mixology inspired by the Mediterranean as well as Japan.
MM is intended to be the first lifestyle membership club to create a network of luxury restaurants, lounges, and other entertaining venues within the members-only access to the private area.
By giving its member’s priority access when visiting all locations, including out-of-state venues, MM reimagines how individuals navigate through dining experiences. Adding a whole new level of value to what member benefits stand for, MM is a symbol of class, refinement, and good taste. The annual cost for the membership is $5,000.
Gregory and Marine Daly, the restaurant’s creators who are French, own and run it on behalf of Rivera Dining Group. Mila “overnight became one of the top-grossing restaurants in South Florida,” according to Gregory Daly, despite having to close shortly after its opening in 2020 because of the COVID-19 epidemic. Since the restaurant’s opening, he calculates that more than 220,000 patrons have come through the door annually.
