The Perigon Miami Beach Elevation

Capitalizing on Luxury: The Perigon Miami Beach Sets a New Standard in Oceanfront Living

The Perigon Miami Beach Elevation from the Beach

The Perigon, a paradigm of luxury real estate, is set to redefine the Miami Beach skyline. This exclusive 17-story condominium, a strategic collaboration between Mast Capital and Starwood Capital Group, is situated at a prime location on 5333 Collins Avenue. The Perigon represents just that with its OMA-designed architecture and Tara Bernerd’s sophisticated interior aesthetics. Each of the 73 residences, spanning 2,100 to 6,700 square feet, promises unparalleled opulence and privacy, further enhanced by eight private guest suites reserved for owners.

The groundbreaking for this elite property is anticipated in early 2024, with Moss Construction at the helm of the development. The current demolition of the former La Costa condominium is proceeding with precision, indicative of the meticulous planning and execution befitting such a high-caliber project. This careful dismantling is a precursor to the construction of a complex that will not only be a residence but a statement of luxury.

The Perigon’s allure extends beyond its architecture. It offers exclusivity with resident-only amenities, such as a waterfront restaurant led by Michelin-starred Chef Shaun Hergatt, and a private beach club. The units boast 10-foot ceilings, wraparound terraces with sweeping ocean views, and custom Italian kitchens with Sub-Zero Wolf appliances, embodying the very definition of luxury living.

The Perigon is targeting LEED Gold certification, showcasing a commitment to environmental excellence. Set to be completed in 2026 with starting prices of $4.25 million.

The Perigon offers a compelling opportunity for investment in one of Miami Beach’s most luxurious upcoming developments.

Riverside Reimagined: The Adler Group’s Pioneering Multifamily Tower Set to Transform Miami’s Skyline

Nexus

In a strategic move that underscores the burgeoning potential of the Miami River area, the Adler Group, helmed by Michael and David Adler, is set to progress on a 36-story multifamily tower that promises to be a significant addition to the region. The Miami Urban Development Review Board has given its nod to this forward-looking project, Nexus Riverside 1B, which features 345 apartments and a substantial parking garage.

Hedge fund managers should note the project’s departure from previous municipal plans, signaling a shift in the city’s development trajectory and highlighting an opportunity for investment in a dynamically changing landscape.

The Nexus Riverside 1B is not just a residential building; it’s a statement of cultural synthesis, mirroring Miami’s diverse tapestry through its design and an accompanying mural by Chalk And Brush Design. This project, placed strategically at 230 Southwest Third Street, signifies the Adler Group’s deepening investment in the Miami River district, complementing their Modera Riverside venture and setting a precedent for multifamily developments in the area.

For hedge fund managers, this is an alert to Miami’s evolving landscape, where over 10,500 residential units are emerging along the Miami River. The area is becoming a nexus of high-profile developments, including Gencom and Hyatt’s supertall Miami Riverbridge and Newgard Development Group’s Lofty Brickell, heralding a wave of growth and investment opportunities in this prime waterfront real estate.

The Adler Group’s adept move, with its significant historical site acquisition and strategic pivot from a government complex to a multifamily haven, illustrates a keen understanding of urban evolution and the lucrative potential it holds for discerning investors.

Tower 36 Planned for Miami Design District

The Pinnacle of Miami’s Skyline: A New Luxury Office Tower by One Thousand Group

Tower 36 Planned for Miami Design District

In a move that underscores the ever-evolving skyline of Miami, the One Thousand Group, spearheaded by industry stalwarts Louis Birdman, Michael Konig, and Kevin Venger, has unveiled plans for a state-of-the-art office tower. This ambitious project, set to rise adjacent to the iconic Miami Design District and offer panoramic views of Biscayne Bay, is a testament to the city’s burgeoning status as a global business hub.

The proposed edifice, a 47-story marvel stretching 635 feet into the Miami sky, is the brainchild of KPF Kohn Pederson Fox, a New York-based architectural giant renowned for its global footprint in designing iconic office towers. Their illustrious portfolio boasts landmarks such as One Vanderbilt, the Hudson Yards trilogy in New York City, 52 Lime Street in London, and 18 Robinson in Singapore, to name a few.

The project, tentatively titled “Tower 36,” is set to be a beacon of modern architecture and design. Encompassing a sprawling 1.6-acre plot at the nexus of Biscayne Boulevard and 36th Street, the plans detail over 29,000 square feet of commercial space housed within the building’s podium. Additionally, the tower will feature over 312,000 square feet of premium office space, complemented by a parking facility accommodating 671 vehicles. In total, Tower 36 promises over 610,000 square feet of cutting-edge infrastructure, all while adhering to the Miami 21 Zoning Code.

The One Thousand Group’s vision is clear. As they elucidate, the ongoing migration of corporate giants like Citadel and Microsoft to Florida underscores Miami’s emerging prominence. The intersection of Biscayne and 36th Street is not just a geographical landmark; it symbolizes the confluence of the vibrant Design District and the waterfront splendor of Edgewater. As businesses recalibrate post-pandemic, the demand for world-class office spaces in strategic locations is paramount. The One Thousand Group’s blueprint seeks to amalgamate luxury, top-tier amenities, unparalleled security, and a holistic work environment, reminiscent of their ultra-luxury residential ventures.

One River Point Receives FAA Height Approval

One River Point Miami Condos

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.

$40 Million Construction Loan Secured for Bentley Residences

Bentley Residences Sunny Isles Beach

A $40 million construction loan was secured by Dezer Development’s proposed Bentley Residences condominium development in Sunny Isles Beach.

Records show that City National Bank of Florida provided the mortgage. The financing is for pre-development expenses related to the planned 216-unit luxury tower at 18401 Collins Avenue.

The Sunny Isles Beach-based development company, run by Gil Dezer, just unveiled a $10 million sales center with a scale model of a 6,000-square-foot condo at Bentley Residences. For apartments facing the Intracoastal Waterway, prices vary from $5 million to almost $6 million. Units with a view of the ocean start at $7.2 million. The penthouses will cost between $57 million and $75 million.

Bentley Motors and Dezer collaborated to create their first residential building ever constructed. According to a press release, the 61-story Bentley Residences will have a “Dezervator” auto elevator in the middle of the structure. Each luxury unit will include a three or four-car garage with electric vehicle charging outlets.

According to records, a Dezer affiliate paid $6.8 million in 1996 for the 3.6-acre property, which includes a five-story hotel bearing the Wyndham name. The 180-key building’s demolition is anticipated to begin in the first quarter of 2019, with a 2026 completion date for the project as the goal.

Dezer is transforming the North Miami Beach Intracoastal Mall into the $1.5 billion mixed-use Uptown Harbour project. The expansive development, which spans over 30 acres and includes 2,000 residential units, 575,000 square feet of retail and office space, 250 hotel rooms, a port, and a central park, was given initial approval by the North Miami Beach City Commission in 2020.

Bentley Residences will be Dezer’s second opulent residence with a modern vehicle lift. The first was the Porsche Design Tower, a 2016 completion of a 60-story luxury brand high-rise in Sunny Isles Beach.
