Mast Capital and Starwood Capital Group have officially launched sales of The Perigon, a luxury condo development planned for an oceanfront site in Miami Beach located at 5333 Collins Avenue.
After the City of Miami declared the existing La Costa Condo tower unsafe last summer, Mast Capital bought out the remaining units in an effort to move forward with The Perigon. The City of Miami’s declaration came shortly after the collapse of the Champlain Towers South in Surfside. Mast owns approximately 88.5% of the current tower leaving 14 unowned.
In June 2021, Mast filed the development plans for the property and the official approval came in December 2021. Rem Koolhaas is named as the architect for the project while Tara Bernerd is listed as the interior designer. The design resembles a series of towers merged together allowing the residents optimal views of Biscayne Bay, Miami skyline, and the Atlantic Ocean
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.

1.3 Million Square Foot Development is in the Works for Aventura
In Aventura, developer Dan Kodsi is planning to build a large mixed-use building featuring residences, offices, and high-end residential shopping. Kodsi’s company paid $39.1 million for 9.6 acres on the northwest corner of Biscayne Boulevard and Northeast 213th Street that they plan on building this mixed-use property.
Not only is this site being used for this massive mixed-use project but other lots in the area are currently under contract. These lots include 10 acres surrounding the development site.
Kodsi hasn’t named partners in the project or for the additional sites but stated that the project would cost over $500 million. According to Kodsi, the total site now consists of land and tiny residential structures that Aventura-based Rieber Developments successfully rezoned to allow for 1.3 million square feet of mixed-use development.
Aventura commissioners approved the zoning amendment in June 2021, permitting a 693-unit high-rise residential building; a 120-key hotel; 67,743 square feet of workplaces; 161,270 square feet of retail; and a 120-bed assisted-living facility.
Kodsi has yet to determine whether he would adhere to these guidelines or revise the development plans. According to him, the basic concept is for multifamily, offices, some of which will be used for medical purposes, and high street retail, which will serve as an alternative to the neighboring Aventura Mall.
The retail side of this development will be similar to the Miami Worldcenter but not as large. Kodsi constructed the Paramount Miami Worldcenter and is now building the Legacy Hotel & Residences at Miami Worldcenter.
