Designed by acclaimed Brazilian architecture studio OSPA, the building reflects a human-centered design ethos that seamlessly integrates indoor and outdoor living.

The project emphasizes privacy, connection to community, thoughtful design, and spacious floor plans, attracting buyers seeking a more intimate residential experience in one of Miami's most desirable neighborhoods.
Despite its intimate scale, Colette offers a robust amenity program rivaling larger-scale towers. Indoor amenities span approximately 5,000 square feet, complemented by 7,000 square feet of outdoor spaces designed for relaxation and entertaining. Highlights include:

Construction activity at the project is expected to advance in the coming months as META Development moves forward with the next phase of development. Completion is slated for summer 2028.

Single Buyer Acquires Four Residences For $15 Million at META Development's Colette Residences to Create Two Custom Duplex Townhomes
Four residences which will be combined into two duplex townhomes have sold for $15 million at Colette Residences, a boutique luxury condominium development in South Brickell being developed by META Development. The transaction marks one of the project's most significant sales to date and underscoring continued demand for highly customized, large-format residences in Miami's urban core.
Four residences which will be combined into two duplex townhomes have sold for $15 million at Colette Residences, a boutique luxury condominium development in South Brickell being developed by META Development. The transaction marks one of the project's most significant sales to date and underscoring continued demand for highly customized, large-format residences in Miami's urban core.
The transaction involved a single international buyer acquiring four residences totaling 9,029 square feet, which will be combined into two separate duplex townhouses. The residences traded for $1,661 per square foot and will occupy two full floors within the development, creating a uniquely scaled living experience rarely available in the Brickell market.
Represented by South Florida’s leading luxury residential sales team Eklund | Gomes and designed by renowned architecture and interior design firm OSPA, the future duplex townhouses reflect a growing preference among luxury buyers and investors for expansive, customizable residences that offer the privacy and exclusivity of a single-family home within a boutique condominium setting.
"This transaction speaks to the growing demand for larger, more personalized living environments within Miami's luxury residential market," said Andrew Rasken, CEO of META Development. "Today's buyers are looking beyond traditional condominium layouts and are increasingly seeking opportunities to create residences tailored to their individual lifestyles and long-term investment strategies. Colette was designed with that flexibility and level of exclusivity in mind."
Located in South Brickell, Colette Residences is a 38-residence boutique condominium, offering a refined alternative to larger high-rise developments. The project emphasizes privacy, connection to community, thoughtful design, and spacious floor plans, attracting buyers seeking a more intimate residential experience in one of Miami's most desirable neighborhoods.
"What makes this transaction so noteworthy is not just the $15 million price tag, but the buyer's vision," said Fredrik Eklund, Founder of Eklund | Gomes. "We're seeing sophisticated buyers move away from standardized luxury and toward residences that can be tailored to their exact needs. The ability to acquire four homes and create two expansive duplex townhouses in a boutique building like Colette is incredibly rare in Brickell, and it speaks to the project's unique appeal."
The assemblage further reinforces demand for boutique luxury developments that offer customization opportunities not typically found within larger condominium projects. With a limited collection of residences available, Colette continues to attract discerning domestic and international buyers seeking both lifestyle and investment opportunities in South Florida.
Construction activity at the project is expected to advance in the coming months as META Development moves forward with the next phase of development.

Catalfumo Companies Near Completion on The Ritz-Carlton Residences, Palm Beach Gardens
The Ritz-Carlton Residences, Palm Beach Gardens, is nearing completion where construction has now entered its final phase and continues to make steady progress toward its anticipated 2026 completion. Developed by Catalfumo Companies, the 106-unit project comprises three buildings designed by Spina O’Rourke + Partners, with hospitality interiors by Susurrus and model residential interiors by Decorators Unlimited.
The Ritz-Carlton Residences, Palm Beach Gardens, is nearing completion where construction has now entered its final phase and continues to make steady progress toward its anticipated 2026 completion. Developed by Catalfumo Companies, led by Chairman, Founder, and CEO Daniel Catalfumo, the 106-unit project comprises three buildings designed by Spina O’Rourke + Partners, with hospitality interiors by Susurrus and model residential interiors by Decorators Unlimited.
Palm Beach Gardens is rapidly emerging as one of South Florida’s most compelling waterfront luxury markets, driven by over $100 million of investment in marina development and a growing demand for service-driven residential living. The Ritz-Carlton Residences, Palm Beach Gardens is set on the last 14 contiguous acres of Intracoastal waterfront in the Palm Beach Gardens Marina District. Residences span more than 3,800 square feet, with pricing from $3.8 million to over $10 million and sales overseen by Douglas Elliman Development Marketing.
Further signaling the project’s transition into its operational phase, the development recently appointed Monique Nussbaum as General Manager. With more than 25 years of experience across The Ritz-Carlton brand and luxury residential communities, she will oversee the property’s 106 residences, marina-front amenities, and service program as the team prepares for resident move-ins.
“Monique brings a deep understanding of branded residential operations and a longstanding commitment to service excellence,” said Daniel Catalfumo, chairman, founder and CEO of Catalfumo Companies. “As the residences approach completion and the vision becomes fully realized, her experience with The Ritz-Carlton brand comes at a defining moment, where luxury residential development is no longer defined by design and location alone, but by the integration of hospitality. At The Ritz-Carlton Residences, Palm Beach Gardens that philosophy is embedded throughout, from 24/7 concierge services to personalized in-residence offerings and seamless access to boating from the private 29-slip marina.”
Across the property, more than 20,000 square feet of resort amenities are now taking shape, offering a clear preview of the lifestyle at the center of the community. Anchoring the waterfront is a 95-foot infinity pool overlooking the Intracoastal, complemented by twelve private cabanas with dedicated food-and-beverage and towel service. A waterfront pavilion with outdoor grilling creates a natural gathering space, while early landscaping installations are beginning to frame pickleball courts, dog park, grilling terraces, and waterfront walking.
Above the marina, an upper amenity terrace introduces expansive green space the size of nearly two football fields, a putting green, and sweeping water views, with select residences offering direct access and private terraces exceeding 1,800 square feet. Inside, the amenity experience continues to take form, including the Lighthouse Lounge, a signature waterfront setting designed for entertaining and quiet retreat, along with a grand lobby with 24-hour front desk service, a waterfront fitness center, and a private clubhouse with bar and dining spaces. Together, residents will be immersed in The Ritz-Carlton’s anticipatory service, creating a seamless extension of the residential experience.
For the first time, the Estate Collection residences are becoming tangible. Across all three buildings, interior finishes are advancing, with appliance installation, drywall, and millwork well underway as the residences take shape.
Designed to live like true waterfront estates, these large-format residences feature expansive three- to five-bedroom layouts with dedicated dens and flow-through designs that capture natural light and water views from multiple exposures. Generous terraces extend the living experience outdoors, offering distinct living and dining areas for seamless indoor-outdoor living along the Intracoastal.
Interiors are anchored by oversized chef’s kitchens with Wolf and Sub-Zero appliances, gas ranges, and statement islands designed for gathering. Spa-style primary suites feature soaking tubs, backlit vanities, and oversized showers with multiple showerheads, while walk-in pantries, dedicated laundry rooms, and generously sized ensuite bedrooms bring the comfort and functionality of single-family living into a vertically integrated setting.

Situated minutes from Brickell’s business core yet set within a peaceful, park-filled enclave, Colette residents enjoy walkable access to waterfront promenades, fine dining, and cultural destinations, all while maintaining the tranquility of a low-rise community. “We’re seeing interest from buyers who’ve outgrown the hustle of Brickell’s high-rise district,” explained Sales Director Pietro Belmonte. “They still want proximity to the city’s restaurants and nightlife, but they crave a calmer, more livable environment with a neighborhood feel.”
The Colette Sales Gallery will open on November 12, 2025, at 3390 Mary Street, Suite #124, Coconut Grove, FL 33133.

Looking forward to this tournament which will be a lot of fun and great for the city of Miami.”
Reserve was created as a platform to showcase the sport of padel through the development of world-class padel clubs, high-end court construction and maintenance, tournaments, pop-ups, exclusive apparel, and premier events nationwide. Since its inception in early 2023, Reserve has made a name for itself as the leading lifestyle padel brand propelling the sport to mass popularity throughout the U.S. by providing unmatched luxury amenities and experiences for both seasoned players and newcomers. Reserve Cup is an elite, annual competition hosted yearly by Reserve Padel, poised to elevate the sport to new heights.

How to Play:
Reserve Cup is a mixture of the Ryder Cup (golf) and the Laver Cup (tennis), in true padel fashion. Two teams of 7 players compete for the Reserve Cup over three days for half a million dollars. Teams will be selected by a draft system on Wednesday, February 7th. Each match day to follow will be played to the best of three sets. Each team captain will present the day’s lineup 30 minutes before the first match begins.
Special Rule – Player Substitutions: Introducing a dynamic element to game strategy in a game-changing twist, each team captain holds the power to replace one player daily, enabling one substitution at any point during any one match.
Point System: On Day 1, each match is worth 1 point. Day 2, each match is worth 2 points. Day 3, each match is worth 3 points. In the event of a tie between the teams at the end of the competition, the team who won more matches on day 3 will be the champion.
Reserve Cup Presented by Richard Mille will take place at the Reserve Cup Stadium at Reserve Padel Miami Seaplane Base: 1000 MacArthur Causeway Miami, FL, 33132. For pre-sale information visit www.reservepadel.com.
