A joint venture between Miami-based development company Prosper Group, led by CEO Jay Roberts, and Belgium’s Versluys Group, one of Europe’s leading luxury property developers, led by CEO Bart Versluys, have closed on a three-parcel assemblage for $50 million. Miami-based Vaster provided a $30.5 million acquisition loan.
The assemblage is located at 66 SW 6th Street, 625 SW 1st Avenue, and includes a riverfront parcel that was previous part of 99 SW 7th Street that has yet to be assigned an address. The one-acre assemblage will pave the way for an upcoming ultra-luxury $650 million waterfront residential tower on the Miami River in Brickell. The off-market site was acquired from Two Roads Development and Newgard Development Group.
The closing follows Prosper Group's partnership announcement with Versluys Group to deliver a $650 million, 60-story tower, which will feature 181 residences and more than 300 feet of direct river frontage.
“We are one step closer to bringing our vision for this development to fruition,” said Jay Roberts, CEO of Prosper Group. “With their deep local roots in Miami and exceptional agility, Vaster proved to be the ideal partner, ensuring a completely seamless execution for this transaction. Prosper Group and Versluys Group look forward to unveiling more about our project on one of the last waterfront sites in Brickell, Miami’s financial district and urban core."
“This closing marks a defining milestone for Versluys Group as we bring our European heritage of craftsmanship to Miami's waterfront," said Bart Versluys, CEO of Versluys Group. "For over a century, we have shaped the Belgian and Dutch coastline with architecture built for generations and we bring that same discipline to the Miami River. Alongside Prosper Group, we will craft world-class residences that embody a unique combination of American ambition and vision with European finesse and style."
Situated directly on the Miami River, the development will offer immediate access to Brickell’s urban core, including the dining, retail, and entertainment at Brickell City Centre. Waterfront access will provide direct connectivity to Biscayne Bay and Miami’s broader boating network, while proximity to I-95, Miami International Airport, and Brightline will connect residents to destinations across South Florida and beyond.
