Related Group, Rockpoint and Two Roads Development Secure $424 Million Construction Loan For Rivage Residences Bay Harbour

Related Group (Related), Rockpoint, and Two Roads Development have closed on $424 million in financing for the construction of Rivage Residences Bal Harbour (Rivage). The loan was provided by TYKO Capital, a multi-billion-dollar commercial real estate investment management platform led by Adi Chugh.

Related Group (Related), Rockpoint, and Two Roads Development have closed on $424 million in financing for the construction of Rivage Residences Bal Harbour (Rivage). The loan was provided by TYKO Capital, a multi-billion-dollar commercial real estate investment management platform led by Adi Chugh.

As the first new ultra-luxury condo tower in the exclusive Village of Bal Harbour in more than a decade, Rivage has seen robust demand since its unveiling in January of 2023. The strong sales pace has resulted in more than $100 million in sales over the last 60 days. Construction began in September 2024, with delivery expected for 2027.

“We envisioned Rivage as an unparalleled jewel of luxury and service, surpassing even the most prestigious residential offerings in this iconic community,” said Nick Pérez, President of Condominium Development at Related. “With TYKO’s invaluable support, we are poised to bring that vision to life, once again setting a new standard in one of the world’s most competitive real estate markets.”

“We welcome the opportunity to have the TYKO team work alongside Related, Rockpoint and Two Roads to bring Rivage to Bal Harbour,” said Dan Domb, Managing Member at Rockpoint. “With construction and sales both well underway, we look forward to delivering this unique luxury residential property in the supply-constrained greater Miami market.”

Rivage is nestled between the Intracoastal Waterway and 200 feet of uninterrupted oceanfront, immersing residents in Miami Beach’s breathtaking natural beauty. Comprising just 56 sky villas, the boutique condominium features world-class designs by the award-winning architects Skidmore, Owings & Merrill (SOM) and interior design firm Rottet Studio. Each residence reflects organic influences, with open-concept layouts that flow seamlessly into expansive living areas and oversized terraces with unobstructed views of the Atlantic Ocean and Biscayne Bay. Designed to provide a single-family home experience, the residences range from 3,300 to nearly 13,000 square feet and include both in-unit elevator access and private parking garages. Sales and marketing for Rivage Bal Harbour is exclusively overseen by Douglas Elliman Development Marketing (DEDM).

A focus on wellness connects the more than 25,000 square feet of on-site amenities, including a state-of-the-art fitness pavilion with panoramic views; a hammam spa complete with hot/cold plunge pools and private treatment rooms; and pickle and paddle ball courts surrounded by lush landscapes designed by Swiss design firm Enea Landscape. Residents and guests can also unwind with relaxed options, from private, chef-driven food and a cocktail lounge to a VR game simulator and a kids' playroom. Resort-style services, including a 24/7 residential butler and dedicated lifestyle concierge, round out the package and ensure all residents’ needs are met.

“Rivage Bal Harbour is destined to become a landmark in luxury, a place where exceptional design and prime location meet,” said Taylor Collins, Managing Partner at Two Roads. “With this development, we’re raising the bar for what high-end living can be in South Florida, and we’re looking forward to delivering a property that residents will cherish and celebrate.”

“This relationship represents not just a financial backing, but a shared commitment to creating a residential experience that exceeds even the highest standards,” says Adi Chugh, Founder and CEO of TYKO Capital. “It’s a pleasure to join such an exceptional project team. We’re excited to bring this once-in-a-lifetime development to life and to witness how it will elevate Bal Harbour to even greater prestige.”

The Village of Bal Harbour has been an enclave for the elite since its establishment in 1929. Located between iconic South Beach and Sunny Isles, the waterfront community has long been a favorite for snowbirds, offering easy access to the world-famous Bal Harbour Shops as well as the very best of South Florida.

Whitman Family Development Reveals Mixed-Use Luxury / Workforce Housing Development Within Bal Harbour Shops Complex

Whitman Family Development, the family-owned company that pioneered the concept of an open-air retail destination with the creation of Bal Harbour Shops, has submitted plans for a mixed-use development that will further enhance the 18-acre property with the addition of attainable and market-rate residences and a boutique hotel in the heart of the commercial district of the Village of Bal Harbour, Florida.

Whitman Family Development, the family-owned company that pioneered the concept of an open-air retail destination with the creation of Bal Harbour Shops, has submitted plans for a mixed-use development that will further enhance the 18-acre property with the addition of attainable and market-rate residences and a boutique hotel in the heart of the commercial district of the Village of Bal Harbour, Florida.

Serving as the Village’s commercial centerpiece, the premier upscale shopping destination Bal Harbour Shops comprises over 100 shops, restaurants and entertainment serving locals and visitors. Plans for the mixed-use development encompass 600 high-end residential units, 40% of which are slated for workforce housing and 60% of which are to be luxury housing, a 70-room upscale hotel and 45,700 square feet of additional retail space.

The new development is made possible by Florida’s Live Local Act, a bipartisan bill passed by the Florida legislature last year in response to the critical need for affordable and attainable housing statewide. The legislation enables developers to build more density and reach building heights within the scale of the surrounding area, so long as they commit to including attainable housing units. The law requires that local municipalities approve mixed-use residential projects in any area zoned commercial through an administrative review process, allowing developers to accelerate their timelines. In exchange, property owners must commit to designating at least 40 percent of all residential units as attainable or affordable housing for at least 30 years.

“South Florida’s economic future relies on creating more sustainable housing options. As a firm with deep Miami roots that span generations, Whitman Family Development is addressing this reality by making a significant investment in the greatest area of need in our community: access to attainable housing,” said Matthew Whitman Lazenby, President and Chief Executive Officer of Whitman Family Development. “By adding workforce and market-rate housing catering to service and hospitality workers, teachers, first responders, and other workers who are the backbone and lifeblood of our community and who are currently priced out of the market, Bal Harbour Shops will diversify the area’s housing market so that people who work in this Village can actually live here.”

Whitman Family Development has already filed plans for the mixed-use development with the Village of Bal Harbour. Once building permits are issued, the multi-phase project will begin with the development of an attainable housing tower on the property’s southwest corner, followed by luxury residential units, and the boutique hotel. The residential components, which will reflect the premium design, finishes and features that characterize the luxury brand, will feature lifestyle-driven amenities including elevated swimming pool decks, resident lounges and entertainment areas, modern fitness centers, outdoor recreational areas, and more.

The development’s planned residential component will help meet growing demand for quality and more accessible housing in the region. Today, half of Miami-Dade’s 936,351 households spend more than 30% of their income on housing costs, according to the 2023 Housing Needs Assessment report by the University of Florida and Miami Homes for All. This, while real estate experts recommend that renters and homeowners spend 30% or below on their housing expenses. Bal Harbour’s premium housing market, where the average home is valued at $1.7 million, currently prices out the community’s workforce as the median price for rental listings is about $7,000 a month, according to Realtor.com.

“The addition of a residential component at Bal Harbour Shops will enable a cross-section of residents to reside closer to their place of work,” Mr. Whitman Lazenby added. “The infill development will reduce commute times and gridlock, while improving quality of life for hundreds of people currently commuting into the Village of Bal Harbour and nearby enclaves each day.”

Under Bal Harbour Shops’ development plans, the new towers will rise to approximately 275 feet, consistent with immediately adjacent buildings in the Village, including the St. Regis Bal Harbour Resort directly across the street. The design prioritizes pedestrian access and street-level activations, with new entry points that will foster connectivity within the development and the surrounding neighborhood. New tax revenue generated by this development will help the Village of Bal Harbour enhance public safety and prioritize infrastructure improvements, alleviating a cost burden that would otherwise be placed on residents.

Whitman Family Development has been a mainstay in South Florida’s real estate landscape for the past 60 years. The fourth generation, family-owned firm unveiled the Bal Harbour Shops in 1965 and has continually invested in the property with an eye toward the future of the Village of Bal Harbour, one of the region’s most desirable places to live and visit. The open-air, luxury retail center, which is home to renowned brands such as Chanel, Gucci, Tiffany & Co. and Valentino, is currently undergoing a $550 million retail expansion that will add about 250,000 square feet, nearly doubling the center’s current retail space. The retail expansion will accommodate the addition of 35 new upscale stores and restaurants, which will solidify Bal Harbour Shops position as one of the world’s most popular destinations for luxury shopping, hospitality, and dining.

Arte Surfside Officially Sells Out At Nearly $225 Million As Penthouse Leased By Ivanka Trump And Jared Kushner Sells For $17 Million

Arte Surfside, the ultra-luxury 12-story oceanfront luxury condominium at 8955 Collins Avenue, has officially sold-out for near-$225 million following the closing of Residence 201, its last remaining listing, for $17 million in as-is condition. The six bedroom home spanning 6,975 square feet of interior space and 1,488 of terrace space was designed by master Italian architect Antonio Citterio and sold unfurnished.

Arte Surfside, the ultra-luxury 12-story oceanfront luxury condominium at 8955 Collins Avenue, has officially sold-out for near-$225 million following the closing of Residence 201, its last remaining listing, for $17 million in as-is condition. The six bedroom home spanning 6,975 square feet of interior space and 1,488 of terrace space was designed by master Italian architect Antonio Citterio and sold unfurnished to a family, who were drawn to its water views and large living spaces featuring two kitchens, a dedicated oceanfront entertaining level, and a master suite overlooking the ocean. The residence was previously leased to Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner.

Arte was successful in attracting the most discerning luxury buyers in the world, with many hailing from the U.S. Northeast, and was recognized globally for setting impressive new sales records, including executing on a cryptocurrency penthouse transaction. At around $3,000 per square foot, Arte achieved the highest blended price per foot in addition to the highest average cost per unit that has closed to date in any new development recorded in Miami Dade County and arguably Florida. Furthermore, with almost $225 million in total sales, Arte holds the highest gross sale price for a new boutique development in Miami.

“Arte represents a new tier of ultra-luxury in Miami Beach,” said Alex Sapir, Chairman of Sapir Corp LTD, an Israel-and New York-based subsidiary, who, developed the project. “This development has redefined all expectations for oceanfront living and showed the market that unprecedented prices a square foot are possible. We have set a new standard with Arte, and I’m proud to have led such a tremendous project.”

“It’s thrilling to watch a project you conceptualize from the ground up become a record-breaker in so many categories,” said Giovanni Fasciano, co-developer of the project. “We envisioned the ultimate Miami Beach lifestyle with the perfect combination of only 16 residences, masterful architecture, all of the amenities and services of a five-star resort and a collection of blue-chip artwork that actually inspired the building’s name. Buyers gravitated toward this highly customized, personal approach, and they have now come to know us as developers that go far above and beyond what’s expected.”

Arte’s sales success is a result of the huge demand for large oceanfront residences in Miami Beach. The homes at Arte feature expansive indoor and outdoor spaces, with square footage starting at 3,126. The two largest residences, the Penthouse and Lower Penthouse, were both landmark deals for the market, with the Penthouse selling at $33 million, and the Lower Penthouse selling at $22.5 million setting a record price per square foot of $4,440. These two transactions serve as a benchmark for Surfside condominium sales today. The achievements also underscore the validity of the developers’ initial vision for Arte and prove the building’s aptitude to set multiple records in real estate.

“We are thrilled to have been part of this exciting project, that has brought world class design and architecture to Surfside,” said Howard M. Lorber, Executive Chairman of Douglas Elliman.

Reinforcing Arte’s desirability in the market was incredible architecture by Antonio Citterio, in collaboration with Kobi Karp Architecture and Interior Design. Nodding to the legacy of ancient landmarks such as the Colosseum, the building touts a memorable Roman travertine façade, broad expanses of sliding glass doors and a gridded bronze Schuco window system.

Owners of the 16 residences at Arte enjoy a lavish lifestyle with expansive interiors and a wide array of first-class amenities. The amenity package includes a 75’ indoor swimming pool, an outdoor swimming pool, a rooftop tennis court, state-of-the-art fitness center and yoga studio, sauna and steam room and a tranquil meditation pond. Additional facilities include a children’s playroom, residents’ lounge, catering kitchen for out-of-home entertaining and private temperature-controlled parking spaces.

Arte has become one of the most recognizable and celebrated residential projects in real estate. The building’s legacy has been cemented with its sellout and will only continue to strengthen and grow as buyers increasingly desire boutique oceanfront residences with a focus on privacy and exclusivity. Arte has laid the groundwork for developers Alex Sapir and Giovanni Fasciano to expand globally.

“Douglas Elliman had a true partner working alongside Alex Sapir, Giovanni Fasciano and the entire Arte team who understood the needs of the most discerning buyers and helped us to set a new bar for luxury in the Miami Beach and Surfside Markets,” said Jay Phillip Parker, CEO of Douglas Elliman Florida and President of Douglas Elliman Development Marketing, Florida. “We look forward to future collaborations.”

Sales at Arte were exclusively handled by Douglas Elliman Development Marketing, with Miltiadis Kastanis and Dina Goldentayer representing the seller in the Residence 201 deal.

The Dubai-based DAMAC Properties, who was revealed as the she stalking horse bidder for the site of the former Champlain Towers South in Surfside, Florida which tragically collapsed in June 2021, has closed on the site for $120 million. DAMAC Properties, led by billionaire developer Hussain Sajwani, is planning to develop a Cavalli branded condo project on the site.

The Dubai-based DAMAC Properties, who was revealed as the she stalking horse bidder for the site of the former Champlain Towers South in Surfside, Florida which tragically collapsed in June 2021, has closed on the site for $120 million. DAMAC Properties, led by billionaire developer Hussain Sajwani, is planning to develop a Cavalli branded condo project on the site.

The developer agreed to a $120 million bid for the oceanfront property located at 8777 Collins Ave. via one of their US entities, East Oceanside Development, LLC. in September 2021. Court-appointed trustee Michael Goldberg issued the deed for the site at 8777 Collins Avenue which spans ±1.88 acres or ±81,886 square feet. The proceeds from the sale will go toward the $96 million settlement for the Champlain Towers South unit owners who lost their home in the tragic collapse.

The Cavallli Surfside condo will be DAMAC Properties’ first project in the United States. Sajwani’s private equity firm Vision Investments purchased the Cavalli luxury fashion brand in 2019. DAMAC Properties launched a 70-story Cavalli Tower in Dubai in 2021.

Honorable Judge Michael A. Hanzman and the court appointed receiver Michael Goldberg tabbed Avison Young, led by Michael T. Fay, to market the property in late-August 2021. Avison Young’s Michael T. Fay and his team John K. Crotty, David Duckworth, Brian C. de la Fé, and Berkley K. Bloodworth oversaw the sale, pro bono.

The Continuum Company hosted a groundbreaking ceremony with Suffolk Construction on April 13, the appointed general contractor of the condominium, and La Baia’s exclusive sales brokerage Pgutman LLC headed by Phil Gutman

La Baia, Bay Harbor Islands, the new luxury boutique bayfront condominium and private marina by New York visionary and developer Ian Bruce Eichner, CEO of The Continuum Company, LLC, has broken ground. The Continuum Company hosted a groundbreaking ceremony with Suffolk Construction on April 13, the appointed general contractor of the condominium, and La Baia’s exclusive sales brokerage Pgutman LLC headed by Phil Gutman, to commemorate the start of construction on the project site located at 9201 East Bay Harbor Drive.

In addition to announcing this milestone, The Continuum Company has completely sold-out the 68 luxurious residences which launched sales in October. The unprecedented sales have been attributed to the property’s tranquil cove-like setting, well-appointed resort-style amenities, and large, airy offerings that have La Baia continuously outpacing the rest of the area’s luxury condominium market.

“This is a day of tremendous pride for us,” said Eichner, the founder of The Continuum Company, LLC. “Not only are we delighted to be hosting this momentous occassion so soon in the process, but La Baia’s extraordinary sell-out is a true testament to the unique lifestyle and transformative potential of the Bay Harbor Islands, one of Miami’s most coveted hidden gems.”

Featuring a highly sought-after location on one of the last large-scale land parcels remaining in South Florida’s exclusive Bay Harbor Islands, La Baia will feature just 68 luxurious residences with 20-boat slips and more than 30,000 sq. ft. of resort-style amenities. Sized from one- to four-bedrooms -- and spanning between 1,100 to 2,500 square feet -- each La Baia home will be delivered completely finished and ready to be designed, decorated and furnished. Every residence features well-appointed fixtures and finishes curated by New York-based Durukan Design, and kitchens featuring custom Italian cabinetry by Snaidero and Miele appliances. Ceiling heights range between nine- to 10- feet, there are spacious his-and-her walk-in closets, and balconies with glass railings offer unobstructed views of Biscayne Bay, the Atlantic Ocean, Bal Harbour, Miami Beach and downtown Miami.

“Featuring the exceptional design talents of Revuelta Architecture, Durukan Design, and Enzo Enea, La Baia introduces a new dimension in urban, waterfront living that has attracted an overwhelming response from savvy buyers from the U.S. and around the world,” said Phil Gutman, President of Pgutman LLC, the project’s exclusive broker. “Combining spectacular style, unmatched exclusivity and an array of first-class amenities, La Baia celebrates the very best Miami has to offer.”

Offering the best of a yachtsman’s lifestyle, La Baia features a 20-slip marina available exclusively to residents, with direct ocean access via the Haulover Inlet that can take residents to the Florida Keys, the Bahamas, and beyond. Other waterfront amenities include paddle boarding, kayaking and more.

A myriad of additional resort-style amenities include a rooftop terrace with breathtaking ocean views, featuring a pool with poolside chaise lounge chairs, tropical heated soaking spa, children’s play area with an interactive splash pad, and shaded lounge areas for dining and entertaining.

The third-level breezeway garden offers residents a covered contemplative seating area and a reflection lawn for a yoga session or family gathering, while a Residents’ Club Room and state-of-the-art fitness center are among the property’s other top-line amenities.

“Building this gorgeous, boutique condominium on one of the last large-scale land parcels remaining in Bay Harbor Islands is exciting and special for our team,” said Peter Tuffo, president of the south region of Suffolk. “We will apply innovative technologies and our expertise in building luxury, waterfront residential projects to bring the stunning vision of La Baia to life.”

La Baia, Bay Harbor Islands is slated for project completion and delivery in November 2023. Continuum Company expects to launch a north tower in the near future.
