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.
The Perigon Miami Beach Unveils a Resident-Only Restaurant and Speakeasy Concepts
The Perigon Miami Beach announces Shaun Hergatt, a Michelin-starred chef, as the creator of Miami Beach’s first-ever resident-only concept.
Nota will be Hergatt’s first-ever Mediterranean concept, while Fifty Three, a speakeasy cocktail lounge, will have a complementary bold style. Hergatt is the renowned executive chef and owner behind some of New York’s most famous Michelin-starred restaurants, including the private restaurant at 432 Park Avenue and Vestry in Soho.
CEO of Mast Capital (the developer behind The Perigon) stated, “We are designing more than a condominium at The Perigon, it is a private, highly serviced five-star resort exclusively for the owners. Additionally, our partnership with such a notable chef as Shaun Hergatt further solidifies the commitment to the quality of luxury, The Perigon will offer to its residents.”
The focus of the restaurant showcases a clear and crisp palette, making the most of the coastal environment and abundance of rich, local ingredients. Chef Hergatt intends to use woodfire grilling techniques to produce meals that are elegant but approachable, with seafood serving as the menu’s focal point.
The speakeasy portion of the restaurant will experiment with vivid colors and patterns, embracing a whiskey-themed palate. Deeper browns and greens will establish a more intimate mood, incorporating golden fixtures and accessories creating the perfect nighttime setting. The cocktails will also embody the more lighthearted style, while focusing on fresh ingredients and imaginative curations.
The Perigon
The development will rise 17 stories and feature 83 total units, with 10 of those units labeled as ‘guest suites,’ which will only be available to purchase by unit owners.
Units will range from 2 to 4-bedroom floor plans with 2,100 to 6,700 square foot options. Units will start at $3 million and will feature a number of luxury amenities and residence features.

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.

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.

13th Floor Investments and Key International Reach an Agreement with Presbyterian Church Site to Move Forward with Construction
At 609 Brickell Avenue in Miami, a new 80-story project, created by Sieger Suarez Architects, and developers 13th Floor Investments and Key International is moving forward.
The congregation and the Miami-based developers have a “transaction and development agreement,” according to a memo filed with the Miami-Dade Clerk of Court on March 2nd. The developer’s right to purchase the property, their duty to build the project there in accordance with the agreement, and their duty to transfer ownership of the new church improvements to the church after substantial completion are all included in the terms of the agreement. Only a memo verifying the existence of the arrangement was recorded. Other details of the agreement have not been released.
13K-BP Brickell Owner LLC is identified as the developing firm, while Arnaud Karsenti is mentioned as the developer’s authorized signatory on the letter. The project’s goal is to utilize the land that is currently used for parking and a religious school building at the back of the property while maintaining the main church structure.
The agreement provides a number of advantages for the congregation and might be worth $240 million to the church. As part of the arrangement, the church will be granted access to 148 parking spaces, 90,000 square feet of space in the new structure, and a small park. In exchange, the church will receive $48 million in cash, 15% of condo sales estimated to be $125 million, and a portion of revenue from the restaurant on the ground level.
The iconic 1949-built First Miami Presbyterian Church, was named a historical landmark in 2003, will continue to stand. The church had previously struggled with money, including a $7 million tax obligation in 2018 as a result of selling part of its lands.
The document submitted to Miami-Dade County does not specify the specific terms and conditions of the sale. It does, however, confirm “the Developer’s Obligation to Construct the Project on the Property in Compliance with the Agreement.”

Miami’s Urban Development Review Board has given the green light to Overtown Block 19, a 25-story mixed-use development slated at 1159 Northwest 1st Court in Overtown.
