Sales Launch for Twenty Nine Indian Creek in the Faena District Miami Beach
JMH Development has officially launched sales for Twenty-Nine Indian Creek Condos, a boutique collection of only 11 private residences will rise at the nexus of Indian Creek Drive and Collins Avenue in the heart of the thriving Faena District in Miami Beach.
Twenty-Nine Indian Creek will reflect timeless sophistication and serve as an emblem for historic preservation, with architecture, interiors, and landscaping designed by renowned firm Urban Robot. The seven-story modern structure will house eight three-bedroom residences and one sprawling full-floor penthouse with an expansive wraparound terrace and panoramic views.
The development site is home to a 1930s Art Deco structure that has been hidden from public view for nearly 60 years. JMH Development will restore and relocate the structure to harmoniously integrate the past and present, resulting in two sprawling townhomes that will pay homage to the inherent design qualities of its former era.
Each elegantly appointed residence, ranging in size from 1,750 to 4,800 square feet, is designed to maximize space and seamlessly connect to the outdoors, with sweeping floor-to-ceiling windows and doors allowing in an abundance of natural light. Spacious terraces with iconic, undulated railings showcase exquisite craftsmanship that continues indoors – with meticulous attention to detail.
Gourmet chefs’ kitchens feature bone white lacquered custom cabinetry, Miele appliances with wine storage, and marble countertops and islands. Freestanding soaking tubs, dual vanities, honed flooring, and premium Hansgrohe fixtures are among the indulgent features found in spa-inspired bathrooms. Townhomes have double-height great rooms that are 18 feet tall, as well as private terraces with landscaped gardens and a summer kitchen.
Residents will enjoy a palm-tree shaded pool deck with daybed lounge chairs and tanning areas, a summer kitchen with barbeque and dining area, an outdoor shower, and direct access to a dedicated beach club. The Art Deco-inspired geometrical design of the building is complemented by lush landscaping with terraced walls and cascading greenery, water features, and a natural color palette, creating an immediate sense of serenity.
Twenty-Nine Indian Creek will be located in the city’s most vibrant neighborhood, allowing residents to easily explore world-class dining, hospitality, and cultural institutions such as the Faena Hotel and Faena Forum, The Miami Beach Edition, the upcoming Aman Miami Beach, and Bvlgari Hotel.
Prices range from $2.5 million to $10 million, with construction set to begin in Spring 2023 and completion expected in Q1 2025.

Fort Partners Purchase Land in Surfside to Build 14-Story Condo
A subsidiary of Fort Partners, which constructed the opulent Four Seasons Residences at the Surf Club in Surfside, spent $41.5 million for an oceanfront plot of land in the community where a new condominium will be constructed.
9165 Surfside LLC, acting on behalf of Wexford Real Estate Investors of West Palm Beach, sold the 0.54-acre site at 9163 to 9165 Collins Ave. to Hillcrest Land LLC, acting on behalf of Fort Lauderdale of Fort Lauderdale. 9165 Collins Ave Lender 1 LLC provided the buyer with a $50 million mortgage.
The Hillcrest by the Sea co-op building, which was constructed in 1949, is still located on the land, which is close to the north of the Surf Club. A premium apartment will be built in the place of that 24-unit structure.
The land will be redeveloped with a 14-story condo in 10 levels and 32 spaces in an underground parking garage, according to plans approved by town officials in 2022. Condos would be very big, with 10,000 to 12,500 square feet of space.
The proposal was created by Hollywood firm ODP Architecture.
This continues the pattern of older co-op and condo buildings along South Florida’s coast being purchased and renovated into luxury condos to accommodate the inflow of affluent out-of-state residents.
Just south of Collins Avenue, Fort Partners plans to build another condominium.
Shore Club Private Collection South Beach Unveiled by Witkoff and Monroe Capital
With the debut of the Shore Club Private Collection in South Beach, 49 residential units created by Robert A.M. Stern Architects will be available, including a brand-new, 200-foot-tall oceanfront tower that is the renowned designer’s nautically-inspired take on the region’s famous MiMo architecture.

One River Point Receives FAA Height Approval
The Federal Aviation Administration has given its certification for the One River Point towers in downtown Miami. The FAA allowed the towers to rise to a height of 788 feet above ground, or 797 feet above sea level, in a letter that was sent out on January 16.
The same property received FAA approval in 2014 for a construction height of 928 feet above ground (that approval expired in September 2018). The FAA then gave the towers additional certification in 2019.
Developers Edgardo Defortuna of Fortune International Group and Shahab Karmely of KAR Properties announced their collaboration to construct the buildings in November 2022.
The original developing company sold the property to the new partnership for $58.85 million.
According to records, Bank OZK gave the developers a $38 million loan for the 1.8-acre site at 24 Southwest Fourth Street in Miami. According to Defortuna, the loan is a line of credit to be utilized for the 386-unit luxury condominium’s development, sales, and marketing. After the unit plans are completed, sales should begin this year.
The developers will make a few changes while maintaining Rafael Violy’s original concept. An 85-foot waterfall, a three-story glass skybridge that floats in midair, and an exclusive members-only Adrian Zecha “Sky Club” on the 55th level with two restaurants, a cigar lounge, a wine cellar, and a screening room were all originally planned.
If you or someone you know have an interest in purchasing at One River Point, please contact Lucas Lechuga via email at [email protected] or by phone at (786)247-6332.
New Development Proposed at Brickell Key
Swire Properties submitted a request to the Federal Aviation Administration in late December in order to bring the supertall development to Brickell Key, a posh residential island outside of Miami’s financial sector.
According to the designs, there will be two towers: one rising 700 feet and the other rising 1,049 feet, making it a supertall skyscraper. At the southernmost point of the enclave, at Brickell Key Park, both would be situated.
The vacant land at the southern end of Brickell Key, which the firm claimed was being kept for development or sale, is owned entirely by Swire Properties, according to the company’s 2021 annual report.
Although Swire’s precise plans for the property are yet unknown, the park is zoned for residential use. Additional to the development’s height, no other information regarding it is included in the application.
The 2.4-acre park was purchased by the Miami-based developer in 1997. There is currently no developer listed on the FAA filing.
Financing Obtained for 3 Tower Development Near Miami River
Truist Bank, based in North Carolina, has given the Related Group, a $164 million construction loan for the first of three skyscrapers planned for a premium 3.9-acre development site along Brickell Avenue, south of the Miami River.
The 47-story building, also known as One Brickell Tower II, is expected to rise at 77 Southeast 5th Street to a height of about 478 feet and contain 506 units. The entire mixed-use development, which includes the anticipated 75-story Baccarat Residences Miami and an 82-story hotel and residential tower, is designed by Arquitectonica. The tower’s general contractor is John Moriarty & Associates, and work is anticipated to start next month.
The most recent rendering for One Brickell Tower II shows the structure from a ground-view angle as seen from Brickell Avenue with Icon Brickell visible in the background. The sign that reads “The One” atop a planted wall signals that this is the first time we have seen branding for this stage of the project.
A double-height lobby with a covered entry and exposed concrete support columns can be found at the tower’s base. These columns rise into what could be described as an undulating wall of balconies.
The balconies are enclosed by continuous horizontal bars of glass, and the exterior walls are covered in smooth stucco that has a grayish appearance. The site, which will feature a drop-off facility along Brickell Avenue, is surrounded by extensive landscaping. The three towers will be connected by a multistory pedestal. That connecting podium will accommodate an outdoor amenity level on its roof and include parking spots.
Plumbing, excavation, and site work permits were given last year. Due to unpaid permit fees, vertical construction permits are still pending. In 2020, FAA building permits were issued.
Construction Update on The Standard Residences in Midtown Miami
The Standard Residences, a 12-story mixed-use development slated for 3100 Northeast 1st Avenue in Midtown Miami, has new building permits on file.

According to promotional brochures and prior news releases, the project’s official address is 3100 Northeast 1st Avenue, while the pending permit lists 90 Northeast 32nd Street as the location of the site.

Parking will be made possible via the use of the nearby garage. The project’s general contractor is named Cavossa Management Inc. The designer of the landscape is Naturalficial.
The 28,477-square-foot site still has no address listed in the property records. Midtown Opportunities VIIIB LLC is listed as the owner of the property, which is typically situated along the west frontage of Northeast 1st Avenue between Northeast 31st and 32nd Streets.
According to the work items specified in the permit application, the construction of 224,000 square feet of space is expected to cost $40,000,000, or about $178 per square foot.
The size of the units will range from 432 square feet to 935 square feet, with studio through two-bedroom floor designs. All units will include premium wood-inspired flooring, custom bathrooms with double vanities and dual shower heads, high-efficiency washers and dryers, contemporary, open-concept kitchens with top-of-the-line equipment, 9-foot ceiling heights, floor-to-ceiling glass windows, and custom finishes. There will be private outdoor patios in some homes.
Owners and visitors will have access to a staffed lobby and concierge services, on-demand housekeeping, grocery provisioning, dry cleaning, shoe-shining, and tailoring, secured and air-conditioned storage rooms that are available to all residents for purchase, a climate-controlled package, and mail room, a 24-hour security system, high-speed elevators, and controlled property access.
