Major Food Group and Terra Development Partner on New Condo Tower in Edgewater-The Villa
Major Food Group and Terra Development have announced their collaboration on a new waterfront development in Edgewater. Located at 710 NE 29th Street, The Villa, is planned to include 50 residential units.
In 2021, an application was filed with the Federal Aviation Administration for a 57 to 60 story tower at the proposed development site. The plan originally called for the demolition of two residential structures that are now located at 710 Northeast 29th Street and 530 Northeast 29th Street, just across from the Biscayne Beach Condominium.
Unknown who applied for the tower, but the lot’s existing zoning allows for a considerably taller multi-family building comparable to nearby new construction like Missoni Baia and Elysee Miami, all of which reach heights of 649 feet above sea level.
Harbor 29, a five-story condominium building with 15 units that was constructed in 1972 and is currently located at 710 Northeast 29th Street, occupies a plot of land that is around 12,600 square feet. The building occupies the entire corner of the ensemble and has the longest waterfront frontage.
On the other hand, 530 Northeast 29th Street, a 2-story residential structure with around 10 units on a 6,300-square-foot lot, was constructed in 1954. No recent sales of any units or property in general have been closed, according to Miami-Dade County’s Property Appraiser, so after receiving FAA approvals, the undisclosed developer will probably need to buy out the current owners to put together the assemblage, which should total close to 19,000 square feet.
Last year, Major Food Group was partnered with JDS Development for a supertall tower located in Brickell named 888 Brickell.
37 Story Tower Designed by Arquitectonica and Developed by 13th Floor Investments in Now Complete
Cascade, a 37-story multi-family building at 3050 Southwest 37th Avenue in Miami, is now complete. The building, designed by Arquitectonica and developed by a joint venture partnership between Miami-based real estate developers 13th Floor Investments and Adler Group, in collaboration with global investment manager Barings, contains 421 modern apartment homes ranging in size from 510 to 1,323 square feet.
The residential tower is the second to be completed within the 7-acre Link at Douglas master plan, which is bounded to the north by Peacock Avenue, to the east by Southwest 37th Avenue (Douglas Road), to the south by Shipping Avenue and South Dixie Highway, and to the west by Southwest 37th Court. The building’s general contractor was Civic Construction, and it received its Temporary Certificate of Occupancy (TCO) from Miami-Dade County on January 5.
The 37-story tower is located at the intersection of two of Miami’s most desirable neighborhoods, Coconut Grove and Coral Gables, and is adjacent to the Douglas Road Metrorail Station, US-1, the city’s main thoroughfare, and The Underline, a 10-mile linear park, urban trail, and public art destination. Residents have direct access to the Metrorail system, bus lines, and the Miami and Coral Gables Trolleys, making commuting to Brickell, Downtown Miami, and the Health District a breeze.
The property’s interiors, designed by DesignAgency, feature teak wood and textured wall designs that contrast with matte black accents, creating effortless elegance without exclusivity. Earth tones can be found throughout, from the lobby lounge’s relaxed greenery and natural wood details to a lush garden display outlining the expansive amenity deck, providing serenity in each space.
Stone-wrapped kitchen islands, floor-to-ceiling windows, and in-unit washers and dryers are features of the residential units. Tall matte lacquer soft close cabinets, full tile backsplash, modern ENERGY STAR® appliances, porcelain tiled showers, front-lit vanity mirrors, and wood-look flooring are among the superior features and finishes. Select residences have inboard private balconies.
Cascade’s amenities include a resort-style pool with luxury lounge seating, cabanas, a poolside bar, an outdoor movie screen, and a game room with a foosball table, billiards, shuffleboard, and card tables, a basketball half-court, a yoga studio, grilling stations, outdoor dining areas, an indoor social lounge with comfortable seating, modern kitchen, media room, and a kids’ playroom, and an onsite dog run and wash.
The Link at Douglas master plan will include approximately 1,600 residential units, over 32,000 square feet of retail space, and a public plaza connecting to The Underline. Cascade’s sister property, CORE, a 22-story multifamily tower with 312 apartment residences and 6,000 square feet of ground-floor retail, opened in 2021.
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.

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.
Coco Miami Plan to Open its First Florida Location
On January 11, Coco Miami will open its first location in South Florida in the city’s Design District. The 156 seats in Coco’s 2,800 square-foot dining room, which is located at 8 N.E. 41st St., will be staffed by 60 people.
General Manager Richard Contell and Executive Chef Jose Diaz, who received training from Michelin-starred chefs and has a passion for both European and American cuisine, will be in charge.
Because “quality dining and vibe dining” have been increasingly popular over the past few years, the restaurant, which combines fine dining with nightly entertainment, chose Miami for its first South Florida location.
Every night, there will be entertainment at Coco Miami, including dancers, DJs, singers, and live bands. Individual controls located in specified seating locations will allow customers to enjoy the restaurant’s sound system at their preferred volume level while they are eating.
With the help of fresh, regionally produced products, its menu will highlight European traditions. Crudos, pastas, meats, and shareables including seasonal oysters and accessories with chipotle mignonette, ginger-lime relish, and cocktail sauce; Pomme de Terre Millefeuille, thin layers of sliced potatoes with dill crème fraîche and caviar; and a selection of Oscietra caviar are also on the main menu.
Mademoiselle Coco, a cocktail made by hand with Yuzuri Yuzu Liqueur, Shiso-infused Gin, Dragon Fruit, Pineapple Syrup, Lemon, and Sparkling Wine; Alter Ego Margarita, a concoction of Don Julio Reposado, Domaine de Canton Ginger Liqueur, Thai Chili, Tangerine Syrup, and Lime; and Coco Martini, a concoction of Ketel One, sweet vermouth, and cream of coconut.
Every Wednesday through Saturday from 7 p.m. to 1 a.m., Coco Miami will be open.
