Plans for a 23 Story Tower Proposed in North Miami Beach
Miami-based Humberto Ramirez Developers are currently under contract on a North Miami Beach office building with plans to a 23-story condo-hotel.
Officially scheduled for December 13, North Miami’s City Planning & Zoning Board will be presented the proposal for the tower located at 2040 N.E. 163rd Street. The 1.09-acre site currently holds a 3 story 26,766 square foot office building with a medical practice and a consulting firm as the current tenants. The property is currently owned by North Miami Beach company, 2040 Investments.
Designed by Bermello Ajamil & Partners, the proposed tower would feature 334 condo units, 30 hotel rooms, and a 410-space parking garage (13 electric car spaces) totaling 272,660 square feet. According to the proposed plans, 144 one-bedroom units, 162 two-bedroom units, and 28 three-bedroom units.
The property would also feature 7,328 square feet of retail space. The parking garage would rise 7 stories tall and the hotel rooms would line the front of the garage.
Amenities for this tower would feature a pool deck above the parking garage, game room, and fitness center.
North Miami Beach has adopted revised zoning for its eastern portion in recent years in order to stimulate construction and increased density. The city hopes to attract additional people as well as business development to the region
Aston Martin Residences Presents the Penthouse Collection
In the wake of top-off on construction for the sail-shaped Aston Martin Residences, a series of exclusive penthouses known as the Penthouse Collection was unveiled. There are currently 7 sprawling penthouses in the collection for the 66-story super-tall skyscraper. The most unique thing about these penthouses is that each floor plan and finishes are custom and 100% gorgeous.
The penthouses begin on floor 56 right above the amenity deck. Two of the penthouses, which are at least 8,800 square feet in size and cost between $16.7 million and $25 million, have already been sold. While the developer releases the collection, here is some exclusive information on penthouse number 5!
This penthouse located on the 60th-floor features 12,397 square feet of indoor and outdoor living space. Expanding through the entire floor, you will find 4 bedrooms, 6.5 bathrooms, and staff quarters. With 360 degrees of ocean and Miami views, this penthouse has it all, from the white marble to the floor-to-ceiling windows and beyond. Each penthouse includes a gym and a private terrace with a pool.
Did we also say that once you purchase one of the Penthouse Collection units, an Aston Martin DB11 or DBX will become yours? That’s right. And what makes it so much better is that you’ll be able to park your new Aston Martin in the signature garages designed just for your luxury car.
The lower-floor apartments, all of which face the ocean, start at a still-generous 3,600 square feet and $5.525 million, and include access to the building’s members-only community.

Plans Submitted in Miami for S-Shaped Mixed Use Tower
In 2018, plans for a 60-story mixed-use project located at 1370 NE 2nd Avenue in Edgewater was proposed. The proposal was expected to bring 100,000 square feet of office space, 1,100 residential units made up of condos and rentals, and 1,100 parking spaces. The developer, Cresent Heights purchased the land in March 2017 for $64 million but the project came to a standstill.
Now, alternative plans for the site have been submitted that still would include a large mixed-use complex. The developer for this project will still be Cresent Heights and they will be combining the $64 million dollar property with land owned by the School Board of Miami-Dade.
The 1.13-acre development site will be designed by Rafael Viñoly Architects and the towers themselves will take the shape of an S. The project will include 1,441 residential units, 100,000 square feet of office space (dedicated offices for the School Board of Miami-Dade County), auditorium, 19,673 square feet of office space for Cresent Heights, 5 levels of amenities, and nine levels of parking. The towers will rise 43 stories reaching 649 feet tall.
Amenities:
bowling alley
indoor basketball court
indoor lap pool
indoor running track
management office on the ground floor
9 parking levels (3 public, 6 restricted)
The developer has chosen to have the proposal reviewed by Miami-Dade County under the Metromover Subzone Zoning Standards. The move permits them to avoid the more stringent planning, zoning, and design approval required by the City of Miami.
Aston Martin Residences Construction Update
Aston Martin Residences is nearing the top off of the 66-story ultra-luxury tower located at 300 Biscayne Boulevard Way. Situated in Downtown Miami, this remarkable tower will be one of the Miami skyline’s most unique towers. Designed by BMA Arquitectos & Asociados with Revuelta Architecture International, the 816-foot tall sail-shaped skyscraper will vertically span 1.9 million square feet making it the 2nd tallest tower in Miami.
With Miami-based developer G&G Business Developments and the general contractor as Coastal Construction, the tower is progressing quickly. In October, the tower had already reached the 63rd floor. Now construction is at the 65th floor with netting taking the place of the floor-to-ceiling windows that will eventually be installed.
Vegetation is currently appearing on the pool deck located on the 55th floor as well. We are also seeing contractors carrying large sheets of floor-to-ceiling glass windows and installing them on the 52nd floor. Most of the mirrored siding/windows have been installed from the main to the 52nd floor. Rebar is also being placed on the perimeter columns of the top-floor penthouses.
Units range from studio to 4 bedroom floor plans with square footage beginning at 698. The largest square footage is 27,191 square feet for a penthouse unit that spans over three floors. Sales for Aston Martin Residences began in 2020 and since then a majority of the inventory has sold. River and Panoramic units start at $750,000 and rise to $8+ million depending on the floor plan and unit location. As for the Sky and Penthouse residences, units begin at $14 million reaching well over $50 million.
