Related Group and BH Group Break Ground on Icon Beach Waterfront Residences in Hollywood

Hollywood's rise as one of South Florida's most coveted coastal destinations takes a defining step forward today with the official groundbreaking of Icon Beach Waterfront Residences. Developed by Related Group and BH Group, the 38-story, 350-residence tower rises above a shoreline perfectly situated between Miami and Fort Lauderdale, delivering a rare dual-water lifestyle anchored by a private 32-slip marina and resident-exclusive beach club at a price point that remains among the most compelling on South Florida's coastline.

The groundbreaking follows the recent closing of a $360 million construction loan from Tyko Capital, underscoring institutional confidence in both the Hollywood market and the development team behind it. With completion anticipated in 2028, the vision is rapidly coming to fruition.

“For years, Hollywood existed in the shadow of South Florida's more established coastal destinations. Not anymore,” said Nick Pérez, President of Related Group's Condominium Division. “The city is experiencing a remarkable transformation, and what we're building here is a direct reflection of that momentum. Today, we’ve started work on a destination where exceptional design, resort-inspired amenities and an unparalleled waterfront lifestyle come together for buyers who expect the very best and see Hollywood as the place to find it."

Positioned between the Atlantic Ocean and the Intracoastal Waterway, Icon Beach places residents at the center of South Florida's most extraordinary natural assets. With panoramic views stretching from sunrise over the ocean to sunset across the Intracoastal, the tower is crafted to celebrate water at every turn.

Envisioned by Cohen Freedman Encinosa & Associates with interiors by the award-winning Meyer Davis and landscape architecture by Witkin Hults + Partners, the development offers one- to three-bedroom residences spanning 948 to 2,580 square feet along one of South Florida's most sought-after stretches of coastline. Open-concept floor plans, floor-to-ceiling glass and oversized sliding doors open onto generous private terraces where the horizon stretches in every direction.

Primary suites offer a serene counterpoint, with spacious walk-in closets, spa-style bathrooms and soaking tubs appointed with fixtures from Kohler and Hansgrohe that transform everyday routines into something worth savoring. Kitchens are outfitted for both form and function with custom Italian cabinetry, large center islands and imported porcelain countertops in two curated finishes, paired with a premium suite of Bosch and Thermador appliances that bring a chef-inspired sensibility to every meal.

"What makes Icon Beach special isn't just its location, but how deeply the building is connected to the water around it," said Isaac Toledano, Founder of BH Group. "That philosophy extends from the residences themselves to the private marina, the exclusive beach club and the resort-style amenities designed around life on the water. The intention behind every detail is felt from every angle and there is simply nothing else in the market that comes close."

At Icon Beach, 40,000 square feet of amenity space unfolds around a single organizing principle: life is better on the water. The sparkling resort-style pool with sun shelf serves as the social heart of the property, flanked by stylish private cabanas and a tranquil spa and wellness center complete with cold plunge, steam room and Jacuzzi. A state-of-the-art 3,000-square-foot health club, equipped with advanced cardio and weight training equipment and dedicated yoga rooms, ensures that wellness is never more than an elevator ride away.

Beyond the pool deck, an outdoor cinema, sunset yoga lawn, summer kitchens and a reservable event space overlooking the Intracoastal Waterway create a setting that shifts effortlessly from a quiet morning to an evening among friends. A residents' gathering lounge and alfresco cocktail bar round out an amenity program conceived for every hour of the day.

Access to a private marina and a full-service beach club extend the Icon Beach lifestyle to the open ocean and Hollywood's beautiful shoreline. A dedicated concierge, 24-hour front desk, valet and security team ensure that every arrival feels like a welcome, and every request is met without hesitation. Select works from the world-renowned Jorge M. Pérez Contemporary Art Collection are woven throughout the common areas, lending Icon Beach a cultural depth that runs as deep as its design.

Icon Beach arrives at a pivotal moment for Hollywood, which recently celebrated its centennial anniversary – a milestone that reflects its remarkable evolution from a quiet beachfront retreat into one of the most sought-after waterfront destinations in South Florida. The Diplomat Beach Resort, long a cornerstone of the city's hospitality identity, recently reopened after a transformation and rebranding as Signia by Hilton, signaling the caliber of investment now flowing into the market. The Broward County Convention Center continues to drive consistent business activity, while ongoing development along the Hollywood Beach Broadwalk and a wave of acclaimed restaurants moving north from Miami are reshaping the city's culinary and cultural landscape. Sophisticated buyers are increasingly drawn to Hollywood's rare combination of natural beauty and urban convenience, and Icon Beach is where that demand finds its answer.

Hollywood Moon Launches Sales of Limited Collection Of 48 Residences In Hollywood Beach

Hollywood Moon, a boutique residential offering by next-generation real estate development firm Unilog Group, is poised to redefine oceanfront living in the heart of Hollywood Beach. Introducing a limited collection of 48 thoughtfully crafted residences ranging from one- to three-bedrooms, Hollywood Moon delivers an elevated blend of design, serenity, and modern coastal sophistication across two sculptural towers overlooking both the Atlantic Ocean and Intracoastal Waterway.

Developed by Unilog Group and brought to life in collaboration with Adache Group Architects, interior designer Carla Guilhem, and sales and marketing firm Powered by DMT, Hollywood Moon is a highly curated project that speaks to a new generation of buyers. Thoughtfully designed to reflect the rhythm of the tides, the project blends timeless architecture, immersive living, and seamless indoor-outdoor flow.

“This project is the physical manifestation of everything we believe in at Unilog,” said Patrick Giannini of Unilog Group. “Hollywood Moon embodies our people-first approach. It is shaped from the inside out with collaboration, purpose, and soul. It’s a space where thoughtful design meets real human connection where you can feel the magic from the moment you arrive.”

The residences range from approximately 1,100 to 2,250 square feet and feature expansive wraparound balconies, Italian-crafted kitchens with Sub-Zero and Wolf appliances, spa-inspired bathrooms, and floor-to-ceiling windows that maximize natural light and views. Pricing starts at $1.1 million.

“This project is all about the glass – the floor-to-ceiling windows and doors blur the boundaries between indoors and out, offering unobstructed views of the water and lush surroundings,” said Daniel Adache, CEO, Adache Group Architects. “The glass doesn’t just frame the landscape – it reflects it. Inspired by the colors of the ocean and rooted in a tropical modern design language, we used a mix of glass and warm woods to create a contemporary, nature-infused retreat that feels both elevated and organic.”

The development includes over 20,000 square feet of curated amenities, including an infinity-edge oceanfront pool, wellness spa with steam, sauna and salon, an elevated fitness center with panoramic views, and an open-air Moon Lounge for golden-hour cocktails under the stars. A private clubhouse and business center with a chef’s kitchen, a private dining space, and work areas equipped with conference capabilities offer residents a place to both relax and connect.

“We drew inspiration from the natural beauty of the site—particularly the sunrise, sunset, and the ever-present water,” said Carla Guilhem, Founder of Carla Guilhem Interior Design. “Our goal was to create a sense of balance by bringing the outside in—reflecting the surrounding light and colors through natural materials, textures, and tones that make the interior feel as organic and serene as the landscape itself.”

Perfectly positioned between Miami Beach, Fort Lauderdale, and Sunny Isles, Hollywood Moon offers the privacy of a true retreat with the convenience of a central location. The limited collection of residences creates a sense of exclusivity designed for those who prioritize intentional living, elevated design, and a lifestyle rooted in both tranquility and connection.

“Hollywood Moon checks every box for today’s discerning buyers—location, lifestyle, and limited inventory,” said Alyssa Soto, Co-Founder of Powered by DMT. “Opportunities with this level of design and access to both the ocean and Intracoastal are incredibly rare. We anticipate strong interest from both local and international buyers who recognize the long-term value of a property like this.”

Set to break ground in Q4 2025, with an expected completion in Q4 2027, Hollywood Moon ushers in a new era of people-first luxury, rooted in collaboration and crafted to elevate everyday living through thoughtful design, intuitive amenities, and a deep connection to place.

Redevelopment Of Hollywood's Bread Building Site Secures $83 million Construction Loan

In partnership with Bridge Investment Group, Fort Lauderdale-based BTI Partners has secured an $83 million construction loan for a development in downtown Hollywood. The site was home to the long-neglected Hollywood Bread Building on Young Circle. The building was demolished last year. Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce is the lender. Cushman & Wakefield Equity, Debt & Structured Finance team brokered the transaction, which closed on Friday, Aug. 19th.

BTI Partners and equity partner Bridge will build 362 market-rate apartments and about 16,000 square feet of retail space on Young Circle. Located at 1727-1745 Van Buren St.,1700-1716 Harrison St., and 1740-1760 S. Young Circle, the redevelopment of the site is an important step in the revitalization of the west end of Downtown Hollywood anchored by the 10-acre ArtsPark at Young Circle.

“The new Hollywood Bread Building development will continue to inject new life into Downtown Hollywood and is an important milestone to the future redevelopment of a new and revitalized Young Circle,” said Noah Breakstone, CEO of BTI Partners. “Overlooking ArtsPark, easy access to amazing beaches, and close proximity to South Florida’s largest employment hubs, the new mixed-use development will be a tremendous asset for the city and residents looking to live, work and play in Hollywood’s east urban core.”

BTI Partners, a leading developer of master-planned communities and residential properties across Florida, and Bridge Investment Group, a real estate investment manager headquartered in Salt Lake City, Utah, with over $42 billion in assets under management throughout the country, acquired the site for $11 million in June 2021.

“Bridge is excited to bring a development of this quality to Young Circle for Hollywood residents to enjoy,” said David Coelho, Chief Investment Officer of Bridge Development and Opportunity Zones. “We are grateful for all of the support we received from residents, community leaders, and elected officials. We look forward to continuing construction and turning our vision into reality.”

This project is part of BTI Partners’ and Bridge’s larger effort to continue to revitalize Downtown Hollywood. BTI Partners is also in the planning and approval stages of a second project to replace a rundown strip mall a few steps away from the Bread Building with twin modern towers on the east side of Young Circle. The second project will include residential living, shops, restaurants, office space and a skywalk connecting the two towers. Both projects together will represent a direct investment of over $500 million in Hollywood's Young Circle neighborhood.

Cushman & Wakefield Equity, Debt & Structured Finance team, including Steve Kohn, Chris Lentz and Chris Moyer, played a key role in identifying CIBC as the ideal capital source.

“We are pleased to have been involved in the financing of this game-changing development, which will help meet the demand for more housing opportunities in Hollywood as its strategic location continues to attract residents and businesses to the city,” said Kohn, whose team advised BTI Partners on arranging the joint venture with Bridge as well as on securing the construction loan.

Attorneys Luis Flores, Michael Denberg and Sophia Rub of Saul Ewing Arnstein & Lehr represented the developer in closing the transaction.

"We are proud to be part of a development team that is focused on bringing new life to downtown Hollywood, which has so much to offer," said Denberg, Managing Partner of Saul Ewing’s Fort Lauderdale office. "The new Hollywood Bread Building will bring pedestrian activity to the ArtsPark and to the many businesses on Young Circle eager to grow and thrive. This is the perfect urban location to create a highly-desired live, work, play and enjoy environment."
