Villa Miami Helipad

Nestled in the heart of Edgewater Miami, a new era of luxury living is on the horizon with the pre-construction project, Villa Miami. This bayfront development isn’t just another high-rise—it’s a collaboration of world-class minds and talents. Spearheaded by Terra Development, One Thousand Group, and Major Food Group, and graced with the architectural genius of Pritzker-Prize laureates like Bjarke Ingels, Rem Koolhaas, and Arquitectonica, Villa Miami is poised to redefine luxury living.

Imagine living in a 58-story crystalline tower, soaring 650 feet into the Miami skyline. The copper-colored, exoskeletal design of Villa Miami isn’t just striking; it’s exclusive. This architectural masterpiece is a sanctuary for just 50 families, offering unprecedented levels of privacy and luxury.

Each residence in Villa Miami is a testament to opulence and state-of-the-art living. From expansive full-floor and half-floor units to magnificent 2-story penthouses, every home offers breathtaking 360-degree views of Biscayne Bay and the Miami skyline. The residences boast spacious floor plans, stainless steel appliances, smart home technology, minimalist kitchens, and complete control over in-residence applications.

The amenities at Villa Miami are equally impressive. Residents will enjoy an elegant lobby, a luxurious pool, a state-of-the-art fitness center, high-speed elevators, round-the-clock concierge service, ample parking with 193 spaces, and over 16,000 square feet of commercial and retail space. A rooftop helipad and a public baywalk add to the allure of this exceptional development.

Location is everything, and Villa Miami doesn’t disappoint. Situated at 710 NE 29th Street in Miami’s vibrant Edgewater neighborhood, it’s within walking distance of cultural hotspots like Margaret Pace Park, the Adrienne Arsht Center for the Performing Arts, and Midtown Miami. Whether it’s shopping in the Miami Design District, exploring the artistic Wynwood Miami, or a quick drive to Brickell, South Beach, or the Miami International Airport, Villa Miami is at the center of it all.

Villa Miami is not just a residence; it’s a lifestyle choice for those who seek the extraordinary. With its blend of visionary design, exclusive living, and a prime location, it’s set to become one of the most coveted addresses in the world.

Fortune International Group to Develop Casa Tua Tower

Casa Tua Announced in Brickell by Fortune International Group

Fortune International Group to Develop Casa Tua Tower

In Miami’s Brickell district, Fortune International Group is developing Casa Tua, an opulent residential skyscraper that will allow short-term rentals.

According to Fortune CEO Edgardo Defortuna, Ora by Casa Tua, a 70-story development with roughly 460 residential units, is proposed for the 1210 Brickell Avenue site. Early in the next year, Fortune will start accepting reservations.

The skyscraper will be the company’s first residential development. According to insiders, Miky and Leti Grendene’s hospitality business has been in discussions with developers for a long time. The Food Hall on Saks Fifth Avenue in Brickell City Centre and the Casa Tua main location are both in Miami Beach. Additionally, a Casa Tua Cucina restaurant will open in Miami’s Wynwood’s planned Nomad Wynwood Residences development.

Two new restaurant concepts, a 24-hour market, entertainment lounge, fitness, and wellness center, a three-story sky garden, and a rooftop club with a pool, jacuzzi, cabanas, and a bar will all be included in the mixed-use Brickell tower. The hotel management and marketing will be handled by Casa Tua.

According to Defortuna, the condos will have sizes ranging from 600 square feet for studios to 2,400 square feet for four bedrooms, with prices between $800,000 and $2.5 million. Defortuna predicts that a sizeable fraction of owners will profit from the option for buyers to rent out the apartments on a short-term basis. The lowest two-thirds of the skyscraper will feature between eight and ten units per floor, while the upper third of the tower will have fewer, larger units with an average of six units on each level.

The building is geared toward a younger clientele and offers a wine-tasting bar, a 24-hour grocery and bakery, a restaurant near the pool, and an equipped lobby.

Depending on sales milestones, he said, construction may start in late 2023 or early 2024.

According to property records, the property is owned by Patagonian Investment Internacional LLC, which is run by Argentine investors Federico Carabetta and Vicente Luis Carabetta. Next year, Fortune will close the location and destroy the parking garage to make way for Ora by Casa Tua. The garage is close to the office building at 1200 Brickell Avenue, which still houses the Dirty French Steakhouse owned by Major Food Group.

Casa Tua has outlets outside of Miami in Aspen and Paris and will establish a restaurant and lounge in New York City in Surrey, a Reuben Brothers venture, the following year.

Miami Worldcenter Completes Construction on 255,000 Square Feet of Retail Space

Jewel Box Miami Worldcenter

The Miami Worldcenter’s “Jewel Box,” which has a contemporary design and is enclosed in floor-to-ceiling glass, is situated at the intersection of the 7th Street Promenade and World Paseo open-air retail pedestrian streets, directly west of the development’s upcoming CitizenM boutique hotel and north of the finished luxury apartment tower Bezel Miami.

Approximately 255,000 square feet of retail space have now been finished at Miami Worldcenter with the completion of F-East as tenants actively finish out their spaces.

Another 80,000 square feet of lifestyle-focused retail space has been constructed by Miami Worldcenter’s developers. Block F-East, a standalone structure that is part of the $4 billion mixed-use complex in the center of Downtown Miami, is one of the last retail components of the 27-acre project to be completed.

Sephora, lululemon, Savage x Fenty, Ray-Ban, Posman Books, and Lucid Motors are among the impressive list of recently opened and upcoming tenants at Miami Worldcenter. Other dining and entertainment options include Bowlero, Sports & Social, Michelin-starred Chef Michael Beltran’s Brasserie Laurel, El Vecino, and Chicago’s Maple & Ash and Etta restaurants.

The 300,000 square feet of retail, restaurant, and entertainment space at Miami Worldcenter, one of the largest private urban real estate developments in Florida, will be complemented by a variety of residential, business, and hospitality applications.

Miami Worldcenter Associates, directed by Principal Art Falcone and Managing Partner Nitin Motwani, and CIM Group are the project’s master developers.

Three finished residential towers—the PARAMOUNT Miami Worldcenter, Caoba, and Bezel Miami—can now be found in Miami Worldcenter. The 351-room CitizenM hotel is now finished with construction and is scheduled to debut at Miami Worldcenter in the first quarter of 2023.

In addition, work is being done on phase one of the 52-story Miami World Towers, which will include 550 apartment units, Legacy Hotel & Residences, a mixed-use building with 310 branded residences atop a hotel and 50,000 square feet of medical office space, and Caoba’s second phase, which will include a nearby 40-story tower with 420 apartments.

There are several planned projects, including The Crosby, a 450-unit turn-key condominium by Related Group and Merrimac Ventures, and 600 Miami Worldcenter, a 579-unit fully furnished condominium by Aria Development Group and Merrimac Ventures, a mixed-use residential and commercial development by Abbhi Capital, a residential development by the New York-based Naftali Group, and a three-tower mixed-use project by The Witkoff Group that will have up to 2,000

World Square, a 20,000-square-foot outdoor public plaza and park, will complement Miami Worldcenter’s shopping streets. With its abundance of open space, shade trees, and spacious, pedestrian-friendly sidewalks lined with food, entertainment, and retail concepts, World Square is intended to act as the hub of the development.

A $5 million public art project at Miami Worldcenter, organized by the Miami-based curatorial collective PRIMARY and renowned art dealer Jeffrey Deitch, would turn the 27-acre “city within a citystreets “‘s and buildings into a permanent outdoor art museum. Large-scale murals, paintings, and sculptures produced by internationally renowned artists such as Nina Chanel Abney, Woody De Othello, Viktor El-Saieh, Nick Cave, Trenton Doyle Hancock, Hernan Bas, Serge Toussaint, Zadok Ben-David, and Franz Ackermann will be included in the program once it is finished.

Ten city blocks make up Miami Worldcenter, which is next to Museum Park, which is home to the Frost Museum of Science and Pérez Art Museum Miami, as well as the FTX Arena, Adrienne Arsht Center for the Performing Arts, and Wolfson Campus of Miami Dade College. Miami Worldcenter is the largest and best-connected transit-oriented development in Florida thanks to its proximity to Brightline’s MiamiCentral station, which provides direct train service to Fort Lauderdale, West Palm Beach, and Orlando and access to Tri-Rail, the Metromover, and the Metrorail.

Aria Development and Merrimac Ventures Buy Miami Worldcenter Site for $17.5 Million for Proposed Condo Building

Tower Proposed at Miami Worldcenter

After purchasing a redevelopment site for $17.5 million, Aria Development Group and Merrimac Ventures have proposed a new Miami Worldcenter condominium building.

According to records, the joint venture paid the labor union $11 million to take over the former Miami headquarters of the International Longshoremen’s Association at 33-55 Northwest Sixth Street. According to a press statement, Aria and Merrimac also paid $6.5 million to acquire a neighboring unoccupied 1.2-acre site from a partner of Miami Worldcenter developers Art Falcone and Nitin Motwani.

The project calls for a 32-story skyscraper with about 600 fully furnished residential units with no limitations on short-term rentals with pricing starting at $395,000.

The final construction plot that was up for grabs in the Miami Worldcenter district was purchased by Fort Lauderdale-based Merrimac, led by Nitin and Dev Motwani, and Miami-based Aria, led by principal David Arditi, according to Mattingly.

Merrimac and The Related Group partnered earlier this year to pay $12 million for another Miami Worldcenter development plot at 601 North Miami Avenue, The Crosby, a 33-story, 450-unit condo tower that will also be accommodating to short-term rentals.

Miami Worldcenter, a $4 billion master-planned mixed-use city, is luring titans of the real estate sector to make investments in the area. For a property at 697 North Miami Avenue that was previously permitted for a 40-story, 429-unit skyscraper, a business connected to WeWork co-founder Adam Neumann received $108 million in construction financing in February. Neumann also owns the Caoba apartment complex, which is a nearby residence.

A.5-acre development site on Northwest 10th Street and North Miami Avenue was purchased by San Antonio-based Lynd Living in August for $30 million. Although a 650-unit apartment building is permitted on the plot, Lynd hasn’t made its official plans public.

One acre at 1016 Northeast Second Avenue, where the New York-based developer intends to construct a two-tower residential complex, was purchased by Naftali Group for $40.5 million a month later.

Leave a reply
Waldorf Astoria Miami Residences

The Waldorf Astoria Residences Miami’s 5-star luxury penthouse, which will grow to be the largest in the country and sit atop Miami’s first supertall tower, has been sold for an undisclosed sum. The tallest residential building south of Manhattan will be the five-story, 33,000+ square foot “Mansion in the Sky.”

For the future of real estate in Downtown Miami, the transaction represents a fortunate start. The unidentified client was looking for an upscale residence, and together with the development team, they created what will serve as the pinnacle of the buyer’s individual real estate portfolio as well as the Miami skyline.

Upon completion, this unique penthouse suspended 1,050 feet in the air, will occupy the top five floors of the skyscraper and provide unmatched vistas in every direction. The home will be just under 34,000 square feet in size and have 10 bedrooms, 11 and a half bathrooms, and ceiling heights of up to 25 feet.

A wall-street-style trading room, safe room, billiards area, private movie theater, screening room with two 90-inch theater screens, three wine cellars, full-scale bar, wellness center with cutting-edge equipment, massage rooms, infrared sauna, and a 20-car garage to house the owner’s extensive car collection are just a few of the extravagant amenities it will feature.

The sole usage of the tower’s private roof deck belongs to the mega-penthouse. Three cabanas, a huge pool, a swim-up tiki bar, an outdoor gym, and a multi-use court for racquetball, pickleball, and basketball are all located on the roof. Other features are currently being finished for the owner.

According to the Managing Partner of PMG, “This penthouse sale is an indicator of the strength and tenacity of the luxury real estate market in Miami, and just how special Waldorf Astoria is to buyers and brand enthusiasts. We are confident in the continued momentum at Waldorf Astoria Miami, and know the property will completely elevate the standard of luxury living as we know it.”

Construction on the Waldorf Astoria Residences Miami is expected to begin on October 27, 2022, and end in 2026.

In order to highlight Waldorf Astoria’s first foray into the Miami market, PMG, along with partners Greybrook, Mohari Hospitality, S2 Development, and the international hospitality business Hilton, set out to build a landmark beacon for the city of Miami. The goal is to offer an aesthetically spectacular structure with expertly built residences and unmatched amenities to Miami’s famous Biscayne Boulevard for residents and future hotel visitors to enjoy. The Waldorf Astoria Miami anticipates ushering in a new era for this magical city as the tallest residential structure south of New York and the first supertall tower in Florida.

The Waldorf Astoria Miami, which is situated at 300 Biscayne Boulevard, will have nine spiraling, offset glass cubes that are evenly placed and covered in what is sometimes described to as a “glass skin” to set it apart from other East Coast properties. In order to develop an iconic edifice in Downtown Miami that offers 360-degree views of Downtown Miami, Miami Beach, and the Atlantic Ocean, Sieger Suarez Architects and famous architect Carlos Ott collaborated.

Additionally, the developers collaborated with award-winning interior design company BAMO, which takes pride in designing enticing surroundings that flow, function, and inspire individuals to live and dream more completely. Along with guest rooms and suites inside the five-star hotel, the resort will have 360 private houses. Peacock Alley, a specialty restaurant, indoor/outdoor pre-function and event spaces, conference and boardrooms, a resort-style pool deck with private cabanas, a spa, and a fitness facility will all be considered signature areas.
