111 Wynwood Mixed-Use Project Plans Have Been Filed

111 Wynwood Miami

The 111 Wynwood mixed-use project’s plans have recently been submitted with plans to add 12,106 square feet of commercial space to the current structure. 111 Wynwood will be located on First Avenue in Wynwood, which was originally designated as a pedestrian walkway.

The mixed-use building will be used for multiple restaurants/bars, meetings, and office spaces.

The building exterior, created by Touzet Studio, consists of a low level that swoops widely as it turns from 25th Street to First Avenue. A designated woonerf, First Avenue, is where the lower level interacts with the taller level, which is the main façade. The Mezzanine and Second Floor venues are accessed primarily by a wide staircase off of First Avenue as part of the building layout that accommodates pedestrians. First Avenue also leads to the recessed elevator’s lobby.

Large vitrines that protrude beyond the building’s surface and the deep recess that houses the stairway and benches are used to break up the taller volume’s architectural concrete surface. The lobby’s glass wall and a two-story, fissured, cast-concrete wall that has pockets of plant growing in it line one side of the stairway. From linear beams that go from the fissured wall to the multi-story lobby, flowering vines cascade down over the staircase.

The length of the ground level of the lower volume consists of a vitrine punctuated by glass entry doors set back into the volume. The double-height volume that fronts the corner and a portion of the 26th Street facade is illuminated by a long horizontal glass band. At the western end of the volume, the glass gives way to an open-air terrace at the Mezzanine level. The roof terrace above the lower volume serves as a dining terrace for the Second Floor venue. Horizontal planes, with rendered soffits, hover over portions of the roof terrace and over the arrival court at the top of the staircase.

The mural, which was created by Carlos Prio-Touzet and Touzet Studio, is a stylized representation of a coral rock surface that would appear on an architectural drawing. Here, a trompe l’oeil effect is subverted by the graphic’s sarcastic transformation into the cladding itself. Astro created the spiraling murals on the two bigger faces.

On July 18, there will be a hearing before the Wynwood Design Review Committee. The application was submitted by BH Wynwood Hotel LLC.

Arlo Wynwood Hotel Now Open

Arlo Hotel Now Open and it’s Wynwood’s Very First Hotel

Arlo Wynwood Hotel Now Open

Wynwood now has the newest hotel from independent, experience-driven hotel chain Arlo Hotels, which already operates hotels in Miami Beach and other parts of New York City. Arlo Wynwood, a new hotel in Miami’s most unique area, combines art and peace with nonstop entertainment.

The hotel is the first to open in Miami’s premier creative and cultural neighborhood, which is home to the most street art in the entire world. With guest rooms starting at $239 a night, the 9-story hotel, with 217 rooms will be a cultural hub for locals and tourists alike and offer intelligent travelers prime access to the best of the area.

The hotel’s signature restaurant, MaryGold’s, a “Florida brasserie,” was designed by the James Beard-nominated team of Brad Kilgore and Bar Lab and is located to your right as you enter.

The hotel was created by Meyer Davis, a highly esteemed company at the forefront of international, luxury commercial design. It embraces an eclectic industrial look where organic meets modern while drawing on the neighborhood’s bold and well-curated creative nature.

A flawlessly balanced tension between the natural and the artificial is achieved by contrasting warm, earthy materials with crisp, modern finishes and vibrant accents that create subtle richness through a delightfully welcoming palette. In keeping with the Arlo Hotels brand, the establishment’s sizable living room and lounge areas foster amicable interactions and creative connections among visitors, employees, and members of the neighborhood. The spaciousness of the main spaces reflects the friendly vibe that distinguishes Wynwood.

The property’s rooftop pool and bar, which are now only accessible to guests, are its main attractions. Huge red and white striped umbrellas and cabanas line the edge of the pool.

The airport is only roughly 15 minutes away from the hotel, and the Brightline station is even closer. Wynwood is Arlo’s fifth site; the other four are the Nautilus in Miami and three other hotels in New York City.

According to CEO of Quadrum Global of Arlo Hotels, Oleg Pavlov, “Wynwood is one of the most vibrant districts in Miami. We’ve been eager to develop a hotel in the neighborhood, and with an increasing number of tech-forward businesses moving their headquarters to Wynwood, we feel this is a great time. The year-over-year hotel occupancy in the broader downtown market has grown nearly 30%. We’re thrilled to debut Arlo Wynwood as the premier hotel in the neighborhood. The property will embody Wynwood’s renowned artistic flair and offer first-rate restaurants, bars, wellness programming, and entertainment for guests and locals alike.”

Pharrell Williams Opens Billionaire Boys Club Store in Wynwood

Pharrell Williams Opens Billionaire Boys Club Store in Wynwood

Fans of the upscale streetwear company Billionaire Boys Club (BBC)/ICECREAM are in for a treat with its newest 5,000-square-foot location designed by Snarkitecture in Miami’s Wynwood. Pharrell Williams and NIGO founded the retail company, which has been shaping societal conventions since 2003 with its cutting-edge collaborations and statement artwork with a sporty flair.

Williams has a long history of influencing Miami culture through several hotel-related projects, most notably The Goodtime Hotel, which he co-founded with Groot Hospitality chief David Grutman. His most recent BBC location in Wynwood is sure to bring about a fresh surge of success for the retail industry.

According to Williams, “I’m very grateful that we have the opportunity to bring our flagship store to Miami. It’s going to be a place where people can come in to get inspired by the mix of fashion, culture, art, and design. I can’t wait for everyone to see what we’ve created here, it’s really special.”

By designing the store as an art gallery in an effort to inspire new forms of customer connection, the founders have produced an immersive brand experience that has transformed the D2C paradigm, the brand’s other U.S. flagship located in New York.

While the inside design was imagined through the eyes of an artist and will display regional and international works, the exterior walls of the store will act as a blank canvas for specific art installations by affiliated artists.

With its brick-and-mortar facility situated in a neighborhood infused with the same street spirit the company is established upon, BBC ICECREAM intends to tap into the creative energy of the locals.

The store, which is both modern and earthy, serves as an appropriate backdrop for enduring brands like Bee Line, Human Made, Adidas, MEDICOM, and more, as well as for special collaborative products from designers like Bunny Shapiro and CDG Play, selected by Sarah Andelman.

According to Alexandre, the overall goal of BBC ICECREAM is to act as a platform for creatives, which is what Pharrell and NIGO kept in mind while they created the brand and incorporated its numerous cultural facets.

Brick and Timber Collective Purchase Wynwood Property

Brick & Timber Collective just increased their Wynwood portfolio with an off-market $9 million purchase of a newly finished mixed-use property.

The developer and real estate asset manager from San Francisco purchased a 3-story office and retail property at 2724 and 2734 Northwest First Avenue.

The building was purchased for $900 per square foot by Brick & Timber Collective, managed by partners Jesse Feldman and Glenn Gilmore. The property is leased to a bay area tech business that finished a 10,000 square feet makeover was finished one month ago.

According to public records, the seller, a subsidiary of Miami-based Fortis Design-Build, paid $1.8 million for the two properties in 2018.

The structure, designed by Florida International University Dean of Architecture Jason Chandler, has ground-floor retail, second-floor office space, and a rooftop deck that may be expanded, according to Polinsky.

Wyn on 5th North and Wyn on 5th South

As More Companies Migrate to South Florida-Miami Commercial Real Estate Booms

Wyn on 5th North and Wyn on 5th South

As more companies migrate to south Florida, we are seeing more office spaces renting out, new mixed-use construction and now more than ever, new mixed-use projects. More recently, RAL Tricap Wynwood LLC has proposed a mixed-use twin tower project in the Wynwood Arts District.

Located at Northwest Fifth Avenue and 27th Street, these two 8 story buildings are proposed to have over 250,000 square feet of office and retail space. Dubbed the names, Wyn on 5th North and WYN on 5th South, this twin developments was review by the city in March 2022 and the developers are just waiting on final approvals.

Wyn on 5th North will feature 106,414 square feet of office plus 6,961 square feet of retail and 268 parking space with available bike spaces. Wyn on 5th South will showcase 139,254 square feet of offices, 16,000 square feet of retail, and 377 parking spaces. Each garage will be enclosed and will feature a roof deck.

The project was envisioned to encompass work and play into one creative space. The developer is looking to advertise to local and national companies who wish to be at the beginning stages of the Miami’s financial and tech scene.

According to the attorney, Steve Wernick, “Together, the buildings create a landmark arrival and visual gateway into the Wynwood Arts District from NW 5th Avenue, and significant public realm improvements that will enhance the connectivity and pedestrian experience of Wynwood – extending 24/7 activity to the Fifth Avenue corridor.”

The project itself will be designed Arquitectónica. Although the board recommended approval they still had some commend concerning the design, which were called “two decorated boxes.” They wish to see buildings that resembled more of what the Wynwood Design District is and what the area is all about. Another recommendation included the artwork on the exterior of the building to encompass the vibe of Wynwood.
