Metropica's First Residential Tower Receives TCO And Begins Closings In Sunrise

ONE Metropica Residences, designed by YOO, has received its Temporary Certificate of Occupancy (TCO) and became the first residential tower within the $1.5 billion, 65-acre master-planned Metropica in Sunrise, FL, to be completed and begin closings. The 28-story, 263-residence high-rise is the brainchild of the creative team of Metropica Development, LLC, led by CEO Joseph Kavana, in collaboration with globally acclaimed architect Chad Oppenheim and London-based interior designer YOO Design Group. To date, 75% of the units at ONE Metropica Residences have been sold with buyers from around the world including the U.S., Latin America, Europe, and Asia.

Metropica Development has announced that they are ready to begin closings of the move-in ready residences, which can be handled in-person as well as virtually, ensuring that Metropica buyers from across the globe will be able to finalize their purchases. Every possible measure has been taken by the developer to ensure a seamless delivery within a completely secure and confidential environment, all while complying with COVID-19 guidelines and governmental regulations.

“We are extremely proud to be delivering our first residential building to the market,” adds Bernard Werner, President of Metropica Development, LLC.  “Our buyers have embraced our vision for this extraordinary community and its three key pillars: Nature, Wellness & Happiness. This opening commemorates a milestone in our journey and a preview of more great things to come.”

The luxury condominium residences in ONE Metropica Residences range in size from 961 to 2,022 square feet, and remaining units are priced starting in the $400,000’s. Residences offer floor-to-ceiling impact glass windows, imported porcelain tile throughout, smart home technologies, designer plumbing fixtures by Hansgrohe, and buyers can choose between nature and minimal finish patterns.

ONE Metropica also features top-level amenities including a landscaped terrace and pool, club room with a lounge, screening room, children’s playroom, pool deck, state-of-the-art fitness center, and 24-hour concierge services. 

“The level of luxury and amenities within ONE Metropica Residences are at par with South Florida’s most notable residential buildings,” said Joseph Kavana, “inclusive of a very robust Art in Public Places initiative through an agreement with globally acclaimed artist Stefan Szczesny, which also depicts Metropica’s three pillars – Nature, Wellness and Happiness.”

 When completed, Metropica will encompass approximately four million square feet and consist of residential condominiums, apartments, boutique hotels, commercial office space, expansive green spaces and a burgeoning world-class culinary, retail, entertainment and lifestyle experience for residents and visitors to enjoy.

“Our goal is for Metropica to not only be an area standout,” concludes Kavana, “but also a beacon of optimism for all those who will live, work and play within the community.”

YOO Residences at Metropica To Join THIRDHOME Collection of Global Luxury Residences Invitation Only Travel Club

YOO Residences at Metropica, scheduled for completion this summer, and the first residential offering within the $1.5 billion, 65-acre master planned Metropica, will join THIRDHOME, an exclusive network of global luxury residences. When launched later in 2019, YOO Club will provide exclusive access to five-star residences, clubs and resorts around the world via a point system depending on the location and type of residence. Additional details will soon be available. The invitation-only travel club for owners of YOO homes will not only mean access to YOO properties, but to the more than 10,000 exquisite properties within the THIRDHOME portfolio throughout 94 countries, affording them unique experiences, while allowing them to share use of their own homes during down times.

The 28-story YOO Residences at Metropica features 263 chic, elegantly appointed residences , ranging in size from 740 to 1,379 SF. The building will be a part of YOO Club, a partnership between YOO, founded by John Hitchcox and Philippe Starck, and globally acclaimed THIRDHOME.

“This is an exciting opportunity for our buyers to have access to other YOO properties across the globe, as well as accessing THIRDHOME’s vast network of offerings,” says Joseph Kavana, CEO of Metropica Development, LLC. “For the owners of YOO Residences at Metropica, it is an extraordinary benefit in that they will have access to luxury vacation destinations around the world.”

“We are delighted to have YOO Residences at Metropica as an option for other YOO owners and THIRDHOME members across the globe,” says Giles Adams, president of THIRDHOME Europe. “YOO founders John Hitchcox and Philippe Starck recognized that there are a considerable number of dedicated YOO enthusiasts that would benefit from such a program and we know that THIRDHOME members will enjoy the YOO experience.”

“YOO is a brand unlike few others in the global luxury residential market,” adds Kavana. “We have collaborated with YOO on other projects and appreciate their value. Having the first residential high-rise within Metropica be a YOO offering validates the evolution of ‘urban nodes’ within what were once suburban environments, and will further establish Metropica as the definitive ‘downtown’ of Southwest Broward County.”
