The Wharf Miami to Close and Reopen as Riverside Wharf
The Wharf, a Miami River outdoor entertainment destination that influenced the direction of regional hospitality, is officially closing. Breakwater Hospitality’s waterfront gathering place, which debuted in 2017, is making way for the Riverside Wharf project, which is anticipated to break ground before the year’s end.
A new iteration of The Wharf is one of the development’s goals. However, the 30,000 square foot original Wharf Miami, which featured seven bars, five culinary concepts, and 185 feet of dock space, will no longer exist
The 10-story Riverside Wharf project will also have a new wharf, a 30,000 square foot nightclub and rooftop dayclub, 16,000 square feet of eateries, a 12,000 square foot event space, and a marina in addition to the opulent Dream Hotel. The new home’s architecture was created by Cube3 architects’ Jon Cardello, with help from iCrave for the interior design and Savino-Miller Design Studio for the exterior landscaping.
Along with erecting a new seawall to prevent sea level rise, the developers are also constructing a new public riverwalk on the property. Additionally, there will be a Garcia’s Fish Market where people may purchase fresh fish. According to Mantecon, the new Wharf will have a similar design to the first one but be a permanent structure rather than a pop-up. There will be new eating concepts, with chefs working in dedicated kitchens rather than food trailers. However, don’t anticipate an elegant, red carpet setting.
The Wharf Miami will officially be closing on September 17th, and of course, there must be a party or two to say goodbye. The venue has a history of hosting theme parties, and according to Guerra, they intend to celebrate all the memories shared by bringing out all the old favorite props.
One of the parties is schedule for Friday, September 15, 4 p.m.–3 a.m., 114 SW North River Dr., Miami. includes enormous inflatables and unique bars with particular themes, such as Christmas, the ’90s, Blowfish & Friends, St. Patrick’s Day, and Cinco de Mayo. The last party will take place on September 16th from 12 noon to 3 a.m. With an RSVP, the first 500 visitors can spin the prize wheel to win prizes.

The Turnberry-led development will include 299 luxury condominiums with breathtaking views of the seven-acre Crystal Lagoons amenity and the surrounding idyllic natural landscapes.
With generously proportioned one, two, and three-bedroom apartments, as well as a number of penthouses, these dwellings are intended to accommodate a variety of lifestyles. The expansive views of the stunning turquoise lagoon, the green Oleta River State Park, the glittering Biscayne Bay, the limitless Atlantic Ocean, and the fascinating Miami city skyline are all visible from every unit.
The development was designed by renowned architecture firm Arquitectonica, with interiors by the internationally acclaimed Meyer Davis and landscaping by Enea Garden Design. ONE Park Tower offers a lifestyle of unrivaled elegance and ocean views together with exclusive beach access and upscale facilities.
The interiors of the residences, which range in size from 900 to 2,100 square feet, are expertly planned to meld the site’s natural beauty with the vibrant vitality of the nearby metropolitan environment. Large wrap-around terraces with exquisite glass railings are made possible by expansive glass walls and high ceilings that seamlessly link the internal and outdoor areas. With porcelain floors, roomy master bedrooms, walk-in closets with optional improvements, and opulent master bathrooms with stunning wet rooms with showers and soaking tubs, each apartment will exude sophistication.
The focal point of the SoLé Mia neighborhood is a crystal-clear swimmable lagoon that is the equivalent of 21 Olympic-sized swimming pools. This magnificent amenity, which offers a dedicated lagoon-front beach furnished with inviting umbrellas and cozy beach chairs, will be a special treat for residents of ONE Park Tower by Turnberry. The property staff will go above and beyond to meet residents’ needs, providing the extraordinary service for which Turnberry is known.

Modern fitness facilities, spa services, and massage therapies are available at the state-of-the-art wellness center, which is a haven of renewal.

Chicago-Based Company Files Plans for 39-Story Residential Tower in Brickell
Focus, a Chicago-based company recently submitted plans for a residential tower at the site of the former Starlite Motel in Brickell. According to records, the company paid $28 million for the property in November 2022.
“Miami’s vibrant metropolis, with its walkable urban cores, offers a dynamic and energetic environment that aligns perfectly with our mission,” said Tim Anderson, CEO and Founder of Focus.
The site’s demolition was finished earlier this year, and it was just permitted to be a part of Miami-Dade’s Rapid Transit Zoning District, which permits higher density. A pre-application for the new skyscraper was submitted to Miami-Dade planners on August 4. Gensler is listed as the architect for this new development.
According to the plans, the tower will rise 39 stories tall and will feature 516 residential units. There will also be ground floor retail, indoor and outdoor amenity spaces, and 506 parking spaces.
David Guetta Buys Indian Creek Waterfront Mansion for $69 Million
David Guetta, a well-known DJ and producer, is under contract to purchase a beachfront spec mansion in Indian Creek that was recently listed for $69 million.
Guetta, who owns a condo at the Setai Miami Beach, reportedly sold his record collection to Warner Music for roughly $100 million two years ago. At the time, he had sold 50 million records and had more than 14 billion streams of music.
The celebrated French DJ is buying the almost 16,000 square foot, 12-bedroom estate at 37 Indian Creek Island Drive. The 1.2-acre property has 118 feet of water frontage. The property is being sold to Guetta by developer Todd Michael Glaser and his associates.
The Indian Creek property was sold to Glaser, Jim Randall, Scott Robins, and Jonathan Fryd two years ago for $23.8 million by longtime “Sábado Gigante” host Don Francisco. They started work on the spec mansion after demolishing the old residence.
Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner’s property, which they acquired for $24 million in 2021, is right next door to the residence.
Indian Creek, a gated community, is located north of Miami Beach. Additionally, multibillionaire hedge fund manager Eddie Lampert, musician Julio Iglesias, Hotels.com co-founder Bob Diener, and auto industry titan Norman Braman own homes at this exclusive neighborhood.
In an off-market transaction that established a record for Indian Creek in June, hotelier Tulia Soucy de Gonzalez Gorrondona sold her beachfront mansion at 11 Indian Creek Island Road for $68 million. For his neighboring mansion at 26 Indian Creek Island Road, seven-time Super Bowl champion Tom Brady obtained a $35 million construction loan in that month.
Indian Creek Residences & Yacht Club Secure Financing for Construction

Financing has now been secured for the property with official sales projected to start in Fall 2023.
Indian Creek Residences & Yacht Club’s $29 million construction credit was originated by Miami-based private real estate lender BridgeInvest. Its flagship fund, BridgeInvest Specialty Credit Fund IV, focuses on development, bridge, and value-add financing across the United States. BridgeInvest provided the construction funding, which was organized by Raffi Landau of Estreich and Company.
According to the CEO of Landau Properties, Jonathan Landau, “We are pleased to have the confidence of BridgeInvest on this very special project that will offer an unparalleled opportunity on the Bay Harbor Islands. We received strong lender interest for this project, and this financing package affirms our team’s ability to create an incredible residential experience with a combination of an amazing waterfront location, service-oriented lifestyle, and world-class design. BridgeInvest, a highly regarded lending institution in South Florida, proved to be the perfect partner given their established local presence and robust construction abilities…”
Nine opulent condominium residences and six exclusive yacht docks will be part of Indian Creek Residences & Yacht Club. One of the only private yacht clubs in the region is housed in the boutique structure, and guests may enjoy a sought-after view of the prized Indian Creek Island. Kobi Karp is designing the waterfront complex, and Linda Zarifi of Zarifi Design is handling the interiors.
