3 Tower Development Proposed at 3333 Biscayne Boulevard
According to a filing with the city planners, plans for a 3-tower mixed-use complex at 3333 Biscayne Boulevard in Edgewater have been made public.
The three towers themselves will be labeled as East, West, and North towers. The East tower is proposed to be a residential tower that will rise 41 stories tall with the North tower, also residential rising 40 stories tall. The West tower will be mainly a commercial tower with available office rental space rising 12 stories.
The development will also include 635 residential units spreading over the East and North towers which will also include 9 townhomes. There will also be 1,210 parking spaces throughout the 8-level garage. The office space will include 156,989 square feet and 19,180 square feet will be dedicated to the ground floor commercial spaces.
In a statement from the Developer, the three towers and a podium were developed by the project architect without overcrowding the space. An office tower on Biscayne Boulevard has a staggered design to wisely avoid reaching its full authorized height. To optimize separation and prevent crowding, the two residential buildings are set apart from one another at a diagonal angle. Nine ground-floor townhome units and a courtyard are positioned along the north and east facades of the project’s podium level, where they are intended to keep public spaces active.
The Applicant is happy to have generated an amazing design without the requirement for Waivers, Warrants, or Exceptions due to the Property’s enormous acreage and a private agreement among the owners of the united parcels to divide development rights among their sites.
A covenant in lieu of unity of title is being used in the proposal to use development rights from nearby properties that Aimco owns.
The architect is credited as Stantec. The developer had previously been identified as Beitel Group.
On November 16, there will be a hearing before the Urban Development Review Board.

Along with 205 guest rooms and suites, the Waldorf Astoria Hotel & Residences Miami will have 360 private residences. Nine glass cubes that resemble Jenga will be part of the tower itself.
The building’s design, which was overseen by Sieger Suarez Architects in association with renowned architect Carlos Ott and award-winning interior design firm BAMO, is incredibly distinctive and stands out even among the busy Miami beachfront.
According to the developers, 180-foot-deep foundation piles are now being built by drilling and concrete pouring. According to the developers, 180-foot-deep foundation piles are now being built by drilling and concrete pouring.

Updated Renderings Revealed for MG’s New Village of Coral Gables 48 Residence Tower
Prior to breaking ground and shortly after the official launch of its cutting-edge, on-site showroom, MG Developer unveiled updated renderings of the opulent interiors of The Village at Coral Gables new development.
The Village at Coral Gables, which offers 48 units spanning over four separate collections—Townhomes, Lofts, Villas, and Flats—is one of the most eagerly awaited development to enter Coral Gables’ market.
The style and size of the units varies, ranging from elegant flats with two bedrooms, a study, and a balcony to attractive townhomes with four bedrooms that are 1,750 to 3,100 square feet in size. The traditional yet contemporary village will also have smart recreational features for residents to enjoy, such as a Club House, Fitness Center, Business Center, and a Pool with a Pool House.
The Village at Coral Gables site is situated at 535 Santander Avenue and spread across 17 lots. By 2024, the $50 million development should be finished according to the developer.
The project’s carefully chosen interiors pay homage to Seville, Spain’s aesthetic elegance and way of life, and carry on the heritage of Coral Gables’ creator and dreamer, George Merrick, and his idea of “The City Beautiful.” Furniture was chosen from RH (Restoration Hardware), which has established its design dominance in the market for luxury lifestyle products.
The Mediterranean Revival-style design of The Village at Coral Gables will be modeled after the Ibero-American Exposition of 1929 in Seville’s Plaza de Espaa, which served as the neighborhood’s energetic hub and was ringed by gardens, courtyards, and magnificent fountains.
MG’s design team, lead by architect Maria De La Guardia of De La Guardia Victoria Architects & Urbanists, was inspired by Merrick’s seven towns and created ageless architecture that blends with the naturally lit houses, facilities, and common places.
The Village at Coral Gables is surrounded by lush, tree-lined streets that give the impression of being in the suburbs, but it is actually just a short stroll from Downtown Coral Gables, as well as being close to some of South Florida’s most prestigious golf courses, The Biltmore Hotel, popular tourist destinations, and top restaurants. The Village at Coral Gables is positioned to sell out rapidly because of all the amenities it offers, as well as its magnificent design and luxurious lifestyle.

The acquisition signifies James’ return to South Florida as one of the greatest basketball players in history. James, Dwyane Wade, and Chris Bosh made up the “Big Three” while they were all members of the Heat from 2010 to 2014.

The Estates of Acqualina, by the Trump Group led by brothers Jules and Eddie Trump, the Estates is their third condominium development in Sunny Isles. Three single-family residences are part of the development, and prices varied from the mid $4 million range to $35 million for the penthouses.

New Residential Project Proposed in Sunset Harbour
With proposals for a brand-new development in Sunset Harbour, developer Ronny Finvarb is appearing before the Miami Beach Design Review Board once more.
The board will decide on the plans for the developer’s mixed-use development at 1790 Alton Road in the Sunset Harbour area during its meeting this week. Finvarb had previously attempted to develop a hotel on the site, but the city commission last year unanimously approved a zoning overlay area that prohibited the development of new hotels. Instead, it promoted the creation of fresh office ventures or residential towers.
The new overlay district permits some residential units in office construction projects and raises the height limit for office buildings in the region bounded by 20th Street, Alton Road, Dade Boulevard, and Purdy Avenue from 50 feet to 65 feet. The district not only forbids the construction of new hotels, but it also necessitates a conditional use permit for all structures larger than 25,000 square feet.
The designs show a five-story structure with 12 residential units, a rooftop deck with a private pool and bar, and restaurant space on the first and second levels. Sobe 18 LLC is a subsidiary of the Bay Harbor Islands-based Finvarb Group.
Finvarb’s proposal to erect a 36-key hotel on the 0.2-acre land on Alton Road, which he paid $4 million for in April of last year, was opposed by several Sunset Harbour locals.
For their mixed-use project at 1685 Washington Avenue in Miami Beach, which will be anchored by the Thompson Hotel, Finvarb Group and Chahine Investment Group were able to raise $44.6 million in financing in May 2022.
The Landon Bay Harbor-Miami Beach, a 46-key hotel in the Bay Harbor Islands, was purchased by Finvarb Group last year for $10 million.
The Residence Inn by Marriott South Beach, the Courtyard by Marriott South Beach, and the Kimpton Hotel Palomar South Beach, all located close by at 1750 Alton Road, are also included in Finvarb’s portfolio of properties in Miami Beach.
