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.

Miami Marlins, Avisail Garcia Purchases a $9 Million Mansion in Miami
Avisail Garcia, an outfielder with the Miami Marlins, just paid $9.06 million for a mansion in a prestigious Snapper Creek Lakes neighborhood in Coral Gables, Florida.
The 1.1-acre property was purchased by the baseball player from Venezuela, known as Uncle Avi, 31, and his wife, Anakarina Garcia, at the end of March. The deal was made two years after Mr. Garcia committed to the Miami Marlins for a four-year, $53 million contract.
The two-story house is sited on a corner lot and was originally listed in July 2022 for $10.495 million. Public records show that it was last sold in 2021 for $7.35 million.

The residence’s top rooms, including the private principal suite in a separate wing, are accessed through a grand staircase. The mezzanine gives the architectural drama and depth.
The home contains a formal dining room, a cinema room, a breakfast area, and a chef’s kitchen with a big island in addition to seven bedrooms and eight bathrooms.
Mr. Garcia played for the Detroit Tigers, Chicago White Sox, Tampa Bay Rays, and Milwaukee Brewers before making his main league debut in 2012. The Garcias, who are parents of two small kids, were married in 2013.
