New Tower Proposed in Miami-Clear Residences
Clear Residences, a 52-story tower proposal is now being examined by the Miami Planning and Development Department. Located at 130 SE 1st Street, the site itself sits on 0.55 acres or 23,750 square feet, with the current site now being used as parking.
The proposal with a letter of intent was submitted to the review board in December 2022 with Clear Residences featuring 545 residential units, 4,190 square feet of ground floor retail, and 199 parking spaces.
The tower would rise 694 feet tall with Kobi Karp listed as the architect.
The developer is listed as Clear Communities Miami North Limited Partnership, and Bercow Radell Fernandez Larkin & Tapanes is their legal counsel during the approval procedure.
Joseph R. Colletti is listed as the officer for Clear Communities Miami North Limited. Clear Communities originally purchased the site in 2019 for $18 million while obtaining a mortgage for $10 million through the Pacific National Bank in Miami. The price equaled $756 per square foot.
According to the site’s T6-80-O zoning, an 80-story tower could be built there, requiring Federal Aviation Administration height approval.
Miami Riverbridge Project Receives Approval for Construction in Downtown Miami
On May 11, Miami commissioners voted overwhelmingly to accept the waivers required for the reconstruction of the Hyatt Regency in downtown Miami, Miami Riverbridge. This new supertall tower has also seen the release of new renderings.
Estimated to cost approximately $1.5 billion, the project calls for three new towers, two of 61 stories and one 95-story supertall, which would contain over 1,500 residential units, a new flagship 615-key Hyatt Regency hotel and 264 branded serviced apartments, 190,000 square feet of Class A meeting and events space, commercial and retail spaces, over 1,000 parking spaces and 50,000 square feet of open public space including a 480-foot-long rejuvenated riverwalk.
Arquitectonica is the architect of the Miami Riverbridge, which is being built by Hyatt Hotels Corporation and Gencom under the HRM Owner LLC.
The public benefits that the massive project would bring to the site and vicinity were underlined by Miami Riverbridge’s developers. Improvements to the streetscape for a better pedestrian experience and quicker access in and out of Miami’s urban core would relieve the congestion and traffic flow in this area of the city, which is frequently crowded and polluted by traffic.
The developers consented to give $25 million to help fund affordable housing in Miami. The project’s development would result in the creation of 4,500 jobs, with a rise in permanent employment from 350 to 900. Miami RiverBridge would bring in nearly $1.5 billion in city taxes, levies, and ground rent that could be used to expand public benefits throughout the city. Land leasing rent would rise from $250,000 to a minimum of $2,500,000, or 2.5% of gross receipts. A project park impact fee may also be used to pay for the renovation and reopening of the nearby Fort Dallas Park and the preservation of the nearby historic Flagler Worker’s House, which is located on city-owned property.
The convention center and the 40-year-old Hyatt Regency would be demolished to make room for the new complex if the proposal were to be accepted. By 2023’s end or the beginning of 2024, the developers hope to secure financing. The third tower is expected to be completed in Q3 2029, with the first two towers arriving by Q3 2028. Construction is anticipated to start in 2025.
Introducing Perigon’s Two Story Luxury Penthouse
New developments are popping up everywhere throughout Miami but one of the most opulent new construction towers in Miami Beach stands out from the crowd with the unveiling of its new penthouse at The Perigon.
Penthouse West is a $37 million residence situated over two levels and is the first penthouse to be unveiled at the new condominium project. Four bedrooms, five bathrooms, and expansive living areas are housed in 5,685 square feet of inside space, while an outside sanctuary is made up of an additional 6,487 square feet. The residence, positioned atop the contemporary 17-story tower, also offers magnificent views of the beach, the Atlantic Ocean, and the developing Miami cityscape.
Designer Tara Bernerd, renowned for her ultra-luxury work on single-family houses, yachts, and condo buildings, created the interiors of the building, including the penthouse. She used organic fabrics that go well with the stone, wood, and glass components as well as high-end finishes throughout the entire building.
The 22-foot ceilings in the double-height great room, one of the home’s many remarkable design features and amenities, steal the show. This space, which leads to a wraparound terrace, serves as the residence’s focal point. Here, Bernerd employed materials including Italian walnut, European white oak, and honed white marble with a subdued color scheme. With its high-end highlights and designer touches for occupants who are decor-conscious, the light-filled penthouse has the air of a five-star resort. Additionally, each room has a private terrace area and an en suite bathroom with a luxurious soaking tub.
Penthouse West is known for its indoor-outdoor lifestyle, and in addition to the various outside terraces, there is also a private, manicured rooftop. The landscapes featured in the facilities of the property and the garden in the penthouse were both designed by Gustafson Porter + Bowman, the same company in charge of the landscaping around the Eiffel Tower. The house also boasts a sundeck, a sunken 30-foot infinity pool, a full outdoor summer kitchen, and outdoor dining.
More than 20,000 square feet of amenity space are available to residents of The Perigon, including a breakfast and sunset lounge, a residents-only private restaurant, and a speakeasy run by chef Shaun Hergatt, a veteran of Michelin-starred establishments. Additionally, there is a cabana-equipped oceanfront pool, a terraced fitness center, a private salon, a screening room, a kids’ play area, and a pool room.
