The Perigon Miami Beach Completes First Concrete Pour, Progresses Toward 2027 Debut

A major milestone has been achieved at The Perigon Miami Beach, an ultra-luxury residential tower taking shape at 5333 Collins Avenue in Miami Beach’s coveted Mid-Beach neighborhood. The development recently completed its first hydrostatic concrete slab pour—an essential foundation step in the project’s progress. The operation lasted nine hours and required 520 cubic yards of concrete, 60 tons of reinforcing steel, and 60 truckloads of material.

Spearheaded by Mast Capital in collaboration with Starwood Capital, The Perigon is being built by Moss Construction, with C&C Concrete Pumping, Cemex, and Malcom Drilling contributing to its early-stage construction efforts. Completion is expected in 2027.

The Perigon is the first residential project in Miami Beach designed by OMA, the globally acclaimed firm led by Rem Koolhaas. The tower’s sculptural, diamond-inspired form and curving glass façade stand out as a futuristic addition to the Mid-Beach coastline. Interior design is by Tara Bernerd & Partners, bringing a refined yet contemporary aesthetic to the residences and amenity spaces.

Once completed, The Perigon will house just 73 luxury residences, each offering panoramic views stretching from the Atlantic Ocean to Biscayne Bay and the Miami skyline. The two-acre oceanfront site will also feature nearly 40,000 square feet of world-class amenities that blend indoor sophistication with outdoor tranquility.

Residents of The Perigon can expect a hospitality-driven lifestyle with resort-style amenities, including:

• Oceanfront swimming pool with private cabanas

• Grand double-height lobby

• Spa with treatment rooms and sauna

• Fitness center with ocean views

• Wine and screening rooms

• Children’s playroom and guest suites

Adding to its allure is a private beachfront restaurant and hidden speakeasy created by Michelin-starred chef Shaun Hergatt, who will oversee food and beverage service throughout the property.

Comprehensive services such as 24-hour security, valet, concierge, residential butlers, and in-residence dining will elevate the ownership experience. As construction continues, The Perigon is poised to become one of Miami Beach’s most exclusive and design-forward residential addresses.

Una Residences Nears Completion in Brickell with Deepest Underground Garage in Miami

Construction continues at Una Residences, a striking 47-story tower rising along the waterfront in the southern end of Brickell. Designed by world-renowned architectural firm Adrian Smith + Gordon Gill, the 579-foot tower has already topped off and is quickly taking shape as one of the tallest residential buildings in the area.

Developed by OKO Group and Cain International, Una Residences will offer approximately 135 ultra-luxury condominiums with sweeping views of Biscayne Bay. The building is not only distinguished by its sail-inspired silhouette and modern design but also by its engineering feat—a record-setting underground garage. Construction began in the fall of 2020, with crews excavating to nearly 50 feet below sea level to build what is now Miami’s deepest and most expensive subterranean parking structure, accommodating 236 vehicles across three levels.

In addition to its luxury residences and world-class amenities, Una will contribute to the neighborhood’s pedestrian experience with a planned public baywalk situated behind the property, enhancing access to the waterfront for residents and visitors alike.

As vertical construction nears completion, Una Residences is poised to deliver a bold architectural statement and elevated lifestyle experience to one of Miami’s most desirable neighborhoods.

The Rider Residences: Wynwood’s Retro-Modern Tower Makes Crypto Real Estate History

In a groundbreaking move for Miami’s real estate market, a cryptocurrency transaction was just facilitated for a unit at The Rider Residences — directly between digital wallets, bypassing traditional conversions to U.S. dollars or reliance on third-party platforms. This innovative transaction is signaling a shift toward more streamlined crypto-based real estate deals.

Set for completion in late 2026, The Rider Residences will bring a distinctive retro-modern vibe to Wynwood, one of Miami’s most dynamic neighborhoods. The development promises fully furnished residences with no rental restrictions, making it an attractive choice for investors and short-term rental enthusiasts alike. The building’s 1970s-inspired design embraces bold color palettes, textured fabrics, and glass balcony designs to create a nostalgic yet contemporary aesthetic.

Residences at The Rider will feature open layouts, gourmet kitchens outfitted with Bertazzoni appliances and Italkraft cabinetry, spa-style primary bathrooms, smart home systems, and floor-to-ceiling windows that flood interiors with natural light. Deforma Studio is leading the architectural design, while RADYCA is curating the eclectic interiors.

The Rider Residences will offer a wide range of floor plans, including studios, one-, two-, and three-bedroom layouts, priced from the $400,000s up to approximately $1.8 million.

A robust amenity package is planned across multiple floors, designed to enhance both relaxation and social engagement. Highlights include a lobby café, a rooftop resort-style pool deck with an on-site restaurant and hidden speakeasy, a hi-fi listening lounge, a pet spa, and a state-of-the-art fitness center outfitted with Peloton and Technogym equipment. Residents will also enjoy access to a wellness spa featuring cold plunge pools, IV therapy services, and an authentic Turkish Hammam. Unique to The Rider is the “Toybox” amenity — an in-house collection of Harley Davidsons, Vespas, and electric bikes available for resident use.

Additional services include 24-hour valet parking, EV charging stations, private garage access, and an array of high-end concierge services.

Another major advantage: The Rider Residences will sit just one block from Wynwood’s future high-speed rail station, part of South Florida’s expanding Brightline network. This strategic location will provide seamless, car-free access to Aventura, Fort Lauderdale, Boca Raton, West Palm Beach, and Orlando — further enhancing the building’s appeal for both local residents and investors seeking strong long-term value.

As Miami continues to lead the nation in innovation, lifestyle, and real estate growth, The Rider Residences stands as a bold new example of what the future of luxury urban living looks like.

Key Biscayne’s Next Icon: Boutique Condo by Terra and Fortune

In a landmark deal that signals a new era of upscale island living, Terra and Fortune International Group have announced their joint acquisition of the former Silver Sands Beach Resort property in Key Biscayne for $205 million. The two powerhouses of South Florida luxury real estate plan to transform the site—located at 301 Ocean Drive—into a 56-residence ultra-luxury boutique condominium. Poised to become the most climate-resilient property on the island, the project will embrace sustainable design and community-focused investments, with construction expected to begin in late 2026.

Key Biscayne, long celebrated for its safe streets, strong sense of community, and vibrant cultural identity, serves as an ideal setting for a development that blends luxury with responsibility. Designed by the award-winning Touzet Studio in collaboration with renowned landscape architect Raymond Jungles, the development draws inspiration from Key Biscayne’s architectural roots and the historic Stiltsville homes off Biscayne Bay. The tropical modern design will appear to float above a vibrant native landscape, rich with climate-appropriate plantings.

The property will also integrate forward-thinking environmental features, such as rain gardens, bioswales, and an underground cistern system—all designed to prevent water runoff and support stormwater retention. These elements ensure the property sets a new standard for climate-resilient design on the island.

The boutique condominium will offer just 56 spacious residences with sweeping views of the Atlantic Ocean. Residents will enjoy an amenity-rich lifestyle that includes a signature fine dining restaurant, two resort-style pools, a fitness center and spa, and thoughtfully curated social spaces that cater to both privacy and community.

Beyond luxury and sustainability, the development team is committed to enhancing local infrastructure. Planned investments include improvements to traffic flow, upgrades to the Village’s drainage systems, and financial contributions to Key Biscayne’s Land Acquisition Trust—funding enhancements to public parks and green spaces. The project is also expected to generate substantial economic benefits, including increased property tax revenues that will strengthen the Village’s long-term financial outlook.

Both Terra and Fortune bring extensive experience and prestige to the project. Terra’s portfolio includes acclaimed developments such as Five Park Miami Beach, Mr. C Residences Coconut Grove, and Villa Miami. Meanwhile, Fortune is known for iconic projects like Jade Signature, The Ritz-Carlton Residences Sunny Isles Beach, and ORA by Casa Tua.

As the island community of Key Biscayne continues to evolve, this new development promises to embody the very best of refined coastal living—where architectural elegance meets environmental stewardship and deep-rooted community values.

Adam Neumann’s Flow Secures $51M Loan for Major Development Site in Miami

Adam Neumann’s residential real estate venture, Flow House Miami, has taken a significant step forward in its South Florida expansion. The firm secured a $51 million loan from Ladder Capital to help finance the acquisition of a massive 16-acre site at 8500 Biscayne Boulevard, located in the quaint Miami village of El Portal.

The loan was issued to 8500 Biscayne Owner LLC, a Delaware-based entity linked to Flow, according to public records. Neumann’s company acquired the site for $70.5 million in a court-ordered sale conducted by Avison Young earlier this year.

Once the site of the Little Farm Trailer Park, this stretch of land is now positioned to become one of Miami’s most transformative new developments. Bordered by the Florida East Coast Railway and nestled along the Biscayne Boulevard corridor, the site lies just five miles north of Downtown Miami and close to Flow’s existing projects at Miami Worldcenter.

According to marketing materials from Avison Young, the property is among the last large-scale development sites remaining in the Miami area. It is zoned for a mix of uses, including:

• Residential

• Retail

• Office

• Hospitality

• Specialty real estate

The site has the potential to accommodate more than 2,000 multifamily units and nearly 3 million square feet of rentable space, making it one of the most ambitious projects in the pipeline for the region.

Flow is partnering with Canada Global, an Israeli real estate firm led by Assaf Tuchmair and Barak Rosen, to bring this mixed-use vision to life. The two firms previously teamed up to acquire the Aventura Corporate Center for $116 million last November, a deal also backed by Ladder Capital.

While Flow has not released formal plans for the Biscayne site, the acquisition marks a clear sign of Neumann’s ongoing commitment to building a new kind of community-focused housing model—one that blends residential living with flexible space, hospitality, and services.

The former WeWork CEO has steadily been planting roots across South Florida with projects including:

• Flow Miami at Miami Worldcenter

• Flow Fort Lauderdale

• Flow House, a condominium project in Downtown Miami

This latest move in El Portal hints at even larger ambitions, possibly paving the way for a flagship development that encapsulates Flow’s evolving brand vision

Coming Soon to Brickell: House Of Wellness – A Visionary 47-Story Tower

Brickell continues to evolve as one of Miami’s most dynamic and desirable neighborhoods—and the latest proposal is nothing short of transformative. A new 47-story tower called House Of Wellness has officially entered the pipeline, with an application now under review by the Federal Aviation Administration.

The FAA received the submission on April 7th, with plans detailing a structure that will rise 467 feet above ground (or 477 feet above sea level). Complementing this vertical masterpiece, a construction crane is projected to be installed by January 2026, reaching up to 530 feet above ground.

The project has already made notable progress in the planning stages. It was submitted to Miami-Dade planners for site plan and zoning reviews earlier this year, during February and March, indicating serious momentum behind the development.

Designed to merge luxury living with a wellness-focused lifestyle, House Of Wellness is set to offer:

• 832 residential units, ideal for both long-term residents and short-term stays

• 338 parking spaces, ensuring ample convenience for future occupants and visitors

The development is being spearheaded by North at Brickell VI LLC, a name that’s rapidly gaining recognition in Miami’s real estate landscape.

Brickell is no stranger to ambitious architecture and groundbreaking projects, but House Of Wellness stands out for its scale and concept. With wellness at its core, the tower aims to redefine urban living in one of Miami’s fastest-growing areas.

Whether you’re an investor seeking early opportunities in a landmark development or a buyer looking to be part of the next big thing in Brickell, this is one proposal to watch closely.

Stay tuned for more updates as House Of Wellness makes its way through the approval and development process—this is just the beginning.

Miami Approves $3B Little River District: Largest Affordable Housing Development in County History

In a landmark move for Miami’s urban evolution, the Miami-Dade County Commission has officially approved the Little River District, a groundbreaking $3 billion development poised to reshape the fabric of the Little River and Little Haiti neighborhoods. Spearheaded by SG Holdings — a partnership between Swerdlow Group, SJM Partners, and Alben Duffie — the transformative 63-acre master plan will become the largest affordable housing initiative in Miami-Dade County history.

At the heart of this ambitious project are over 5,700 housing units, with a strong emphasis on affordability and accessibility. The plan includes:

Community Amenities and Long-Term Impact

Future residents of the Little River District can expect thoughtfully designed homes featuring:

• In-unit washers and dryers, granite countertops, dishwashers, and central air.

• Complimentary high-speed internet for three years.

• Onsite management, security systems, fitness centers, swimming pools, computer labs, and dedicated recreation areas.

Beyond the residences, the project promises robust economic benefits:

• 3,840+ construction jobs and 518 permanent jobs.

• Local hiring preferences, especially for low-income and public housing residents.

• $9.5 billion in potential County revenue, the largest revenue-sharing agreement of its kind in Miami-Dade’s history.

Construction of the Little River District is slated to begin in 2026, with full buildout projected over an eight-year timeline. Once complete, this community-driven development will stand as a national model for inclusive urban revitalization, proving that equitable housing, thoughtful design, and economic development can go hand in hand.
