Construction has officially begun on Rivage Bal Harbour, a new ultra-luxury condominium project located in one of South Florida’s most exclusive communities. The project is a collaboration between Related Group, Rockpoint, and Two Roads Development, with architecture by the renowned firm Skidmore, Owings & Merrill (SOM) and interiors designed by Rottet Studio.

Set between the Intracoastal Waterway and 200 feet of oceanfront, the development will offer 56 high-end residences, designed to blend modern luxury with South Florida’s natural beauty. The homes, referred to as “sky villas,” will range from 3,300 to nearly 13,000 square feet, providing features akin to a single-family home, including in-unit elevator access and private parking garages. Each residence will also have expansive terraces offering direct views of the ocean and Biscayne Bay.

The design incorporates open-concept floor plans, with custom kitchens featuring Sub-Zero and Wolf appliances and high-end Italian finishes in bathrooms and closets. The development aims to appeal to luxury buyers seeking an elevated living experience in Bal Harbour, a community known for its exclusivity and proximity to the Bal Harbour Shops.

Amenities at Rivage are extensive, with over 25,000 square feet dedicated to wellness and recreation. These include a fitness pavilion, hammam spa with hot/cold plunge pools, private treatment rooms, and outdoor pickle and paddle ball courts. For more relaxed pursuits, residents will have access to private dining services, a cocktail lounge, a VR game simulator, and a kids’ playroom. In addition, resort-style services such as a 24/7 residential butler and concierge will be available.

The project is expected to be completed in 2027, with construction managed by Coastal Construction Group. According to the development team, Rivage aims to offer an exclusive residential option in the supply-constrained Miami market, meeting growing demand for high-end properties in the region.

Douglas Elliman Development Marketing (DEDM) is handling the sales for Rivage Bal Harbour, which is positioned to attract buyers seeking luxury living in one of South Florida’s most sought-after locales.

“Bal Harbour is undeniably one of South Florida’s most iconic neighborhoods, and this property will raise its profile even higher,” said Jon Paul Pérez, Related’s President. “With a once-in-a-generation location, stunning design and five-star service, Rivage offers a rare opportunity for the world’s most elite buyers. We are proud to begin construction on a property that not only honors Bal Harbour’s glamorous history but also delivers an unparalleled living experience.”

Since its founding in 1929, Bal Harbour has been a favored destination for affluent residents and visitors, offering close proximity to Miami Beach’s cultural landmarks while maintaining a reputation for privacy and exclusivity.

Blackline is a cutting-edge real estate sales platform designed to streamline new development sales through technology. Founded by industry veteran Tim Ng who has over 16 years of experience, the platform has already facilitated the sale of 80,000 units in Canada and is now expanding into Miami. Blackline offers tools like interactive floorplans, inventory management, and custom reporting, helping developers and sales teams work more efficiently and make data-driven decisions.

Give us your background, how did you get involved in the real estate industry?

I come from a real estate family… literally. Both my parents were in the industry on the brokerage and developer side, so it’s been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Watching them navigate the market and sell real estate was an inspiration and it felt natural to follow in their footsteps. What I didn’t want to do was go the traditional route. I wanted to combine my passion for technology with real estate. So 16 years ago, straight out of university, I started our parent company, Adhoc Studio, which focused on creating award-winning renderings and building interactive sales gallery software.

Why did you decide to set out on your own to launch a real estate software?

Working closely with developers and sales teams for over 16 years, I saw firsthand the challenges and inefficiencies within the new development sales and marketing process. These experiences sparked my interest in finding solutions that could streamline operations and create efficiencies that will bring this segment of the industry into the digital age. My process for the research phase was anything but Adhoc. I conducted focus groups with industry change-makers and thought leaders, and after a year of listening and understanding the needs of my future clients, I realized what we can offer is going to be a game-changer.  

Tell us about Blackline? Who is it for and what services does the Blackline offer? 

Blackline is an industry-leading sales platform built to accelerate new development sales. Ideal for developers, sales agencies and brokerages, the platform brings a very antiquated process of new development sales into the digital age. Utilizing robust features like the interactive floorplan module, inventory management, custom reporting and suite stacking plans enables our clients to sell faster and more efficiently, resulting in higher profits and data driven insights.

What inspired you to expand Blackline to Miami? What factors did you consider when choosing Miami as the next market for expansion?

After establishing Blackline as a market leader selling over 80,000 units across Canada on the platform in our first 4 years, I wanted to strategically expand to the US. South Florida, particularly Miami fit the bill as their sales and marketing programs are similar to Toronto. Additionally, Miami’s dynamic and diverse real estate landscape, combined with the lifestyle appeal of condo living, made it an ideal entry point that aligned with our mission to provide cutting-edge tools that meet the needs of a fast-paced, evolving market.

What value does Blackline add for the developers and sales teams?

The Blackline platform combines innovation and sophistication to deliver features developers and sales teams can utilize to propel their new development sales programs. From the realtor portal to writing up final contracts, everything is branded and customized to the specific project. The platform has been built for realtor engagement, maximizing operational efficiency while also capturing the highest revenue. By using Blackline, clients also get access to real-time insights on their projects that show demand, activity and over 100 reports that can help inform them in making data-driven decisions. This data can help inform marketing strategies and planning of multi-phased selling programs. With all the tools you need, developer and brokerages save time and money while maximizing revenue.

How has the software evolved since you first launched? What new features or services can users expect in the near future?

Part of our corporate mission is to always be innovating. We stay closely connected to industry trends and experts to inform us of new pain points and the evolving needs. We recently launched two new features, Blackline Cast and Blackline Realm. Both cater towards enhancing the experience for realtors and buyers in sales galleries and tie into the Blackline software seamlessly. At the five year mark for the company, we are working to launch Blackline V2 which will have a lot more customization and control for clients while further creating efficiencies for their sales programs. Also, we are excited to be working on building a CRM into the platform which will make Blackline a front to back, full-service solution for New development sales.

What sets Blackline apart from other real estate sales software or CRM systems? 

We pride ourselves on Blackline being a platform that is built for the industry, by the industry. We spent over a year meeting with leading developers and sales companies to deeply understand the complexities, needs, and pain points of the sales and marketing process. Our mission was clear: to digitize and streamline the manual processes that sales teams, realtors, contract administrators, and marketing teams handle daily, making their workflows more efficient and seamless. 

How do you plan to integrate Blackline into the Miami market and what unique opportunities do you see there?

Miami is an exciting market right now. With the plethora of branded residences and high profile projects, Blackline is ideal for developers looking to maintain brand value through the sales process while being efficient and easy to use. Our platform is being utilized by CMC Group and Fort Partners for the Four Seasons Coconut Grove and we are excited to have other branded residences adopt the platform for their sales programs.

What challenges do you anticipate facing when expanding Blackline to Miami and how do you plan to overcome them?

The localized nuances of a new market will always be one of the biggest challenges. Each real estate market has a tried and true way of doing things and not everyone is open to change. Blackline also has an educational component to understanding how it can take your sales program to the next level. The challenges we face right now are trying to introduce it on a large scale to the Miami industry players. We’ve been fortunate to develop close relationships and align with some of the industry’s top sales and marketing leaders early on in our expansion and they have been mentors to us providing their invaluable guidance as we expand into the South Florida market. 

You have built out quite a team at Blackline, tell us about the team and how you plan to expand in Miami?

Our product, engineering, and customer success teams are made up of seasoned vets who have been at the forefront of real estate technologies and innovation for the past 16 years. Many of our team members have firsthand experience working for developers and new development brokerages, so they truly understand the industry - we really ‘get it’. Before we decided to expand into the Miami market, we spent 6 months learning the local market - engaging with new development realtors, listening sessions with sales managers and contract administrators at sales galleries. We also have our team there monthly, meeting with developers and brokerages, educating about the product whenever possible and attending industry events to stay connected to our clients. 

How do you envision Blackline making a positive impact on the Miami community?

Miami is ready for change and I feel Blackline is perfectly suited to complement the current lineup of large residential projects in the pipeline. Miami real estate is also being watched on a global stage and using Blackline gives developer and sales team the ability to connect with clients anywhere, anytime. The ability for everyone involved with a pre-construction transaction (developer, sales team, outside realtor, purchaser, lawyer) to interact with a single ecosystem will streamline their experience, maintain brand value and result in a more efficient sales process. 

What long-term goals do you have for Blackline in Miami and beyond and how do you plan to achieve them?

Miami is a primary market we’re focused on in the US but we have our sights set on going global. There is a real appetite to integrate technology into the new development sales process and Blackline is suited ideally for those looking to accelerate their sales, achieve efficiency and make data driven decisions for their projects. We are offering a product that has proven itself with over 80,000 units sold on the platform and we continue to innovate to meet industry needs. Through targeted education of the product, and exposure from marquee projects looking to adopt the platform, we believe Blackline will soon become the industry standard for new development sales, not only in Miami but globally.

Related Group, along with partners Teddy Sagi, BH Group and Wanxiang America RE Group, have officially broke ground on the Residences at Six Fisher Island, the highly anticipated residential tower set to rise within the country’s most exclusive community, Fisher Island. Situated on the final development site of the iconic 216-acre island, Six Fisher Island features just 50 bespoke residences spread across 10 stories. Coastal Construction is overseeing construction and completion is expected in 2026. The project is already 50% sold, having generated $500 million+ in sales, including two penthouses that sold for a total of $150 million, with sales overseen by Douglas Elliman.

CMC Group Tops Off Vita at Grove Isle in Coconut Grove

Grove Isle’s first new residential development in decades is one step closer to completion. Renowned real estate developer Ugo Colombo’s CMC Group has topped off construction of Vita at Grove Isle, a 65-unit ultra-luxury condominium on the 20-acre private island of Grove Isle, situated just offshore of Miami’s Coconut Grove neighborhood.

Grove Isle’s first new residential development in decades is one step closer to completion. Renowned real estate developer Ugo Colombo’s CMC Group has topped off construction of Vita at Grove Isle, a 65-unit ultra-luxury condominium on the 20-acre private island of Grove Isle, situated just offshore of Miami’s Coconut Grove neighborhood. The seven-story boutique waterfront development, located at 5 Grove Isle Drive, is comprised of three interlinked buildings, artfully forming one unified structure. Vita at Grove Isle is slated for delivery in late 2025.

Vita at Grove Isle is seeing strong sales, with nearly 80% of its residences already pre-sold and under hard contract. The majority of the development’s buyers hail from the United States, showing strong domestic demand for newly built product as a primary residence in Coconut Grove, which has become one of Miami’s most desirable neighborhoods in the recent years.

“Seeing Vita at Grove Isle take shape is a fulfillment of our vision for future residents and the future of Grove Isle itself,” said Ugo Colombo, Founder of CMC Group. “This development will offer an exclusive private-island lifestyle, combining the unparalleled water views and unique location with the comfort and luxury of homes, all within the convenience of a condo. It truly redefines luxury living in one of Miami’s most sought-after residential enclaves.”

Residences at Vita at Grove Isle will feature unobstructed panoramic bay views, exquisite detailing, and the highest quality materials and craftsmanship. Units include three-, four-, and four-plus-den-bedroom layouts, along with a collection of twelve exclusive penthouses each boasting private rooftop pools, measuring up to 6,600 square feet in size. Residences are priced from about $6 million, with penthouses priced from about $19.5 million.

Vita at Grove Isle’s construction progress brings the island closer to much-needed significant upgrades, including roadway enhancements, updated signage, and guardhouse improvements, as well as the completion of the 'Vita at Grove Isle Club.' Club members will have access to a Club pool and adjacent bar, as well as additional amenities including night-lit tennis, padel ball and pickleball courts. Vita residents will also have exclusive access to a range of indoor wellness facilities, including a private bayfront pool, bar, lounge, and fitness center and spa. Additional amenities include a children’s playground, along with a gourmet restaurant and bar, open to the public, which will serve lunch, dinner, and cocktails, along with access to the island's marina.

CMC Group’s exceptional track record of sought after, sold out, high-quality residential buildings has established the firm’s strong and long-lasting relationships with top lenders. In early 2024, CMC Group secured a $239 million construction loan from Bank OZK for the building.

Ugo Colombo has tapped global architecture and design firm CallisonRTKL, local architectural firm S & E Architects, and Italian designers Carlo and Paolo Colombo of A++ Architecture to create one-of-a-kind interior and amenity spaces at Vita at Grove Isle. Composed to showcase a single architectural structure, the three buildings – Mare, Luce, and Sole – will offer a boutique living experience enveloped by lush, native landscaping. The building’s design mirrors its unique Grove Isle location, inspired by the natural contours of the island in its elegant, curved shape while maximizing views of the sparkling Biscayne Bay.

Meticulous detail was paid to the design of Vita at Grove Isle. Every residence will include private elevators with a private foyer; contemporary Italian-designed open concept kitchens with concealed top-of-the-line appliances; elegant bathrooms with custom Italian cabinetry, European designer fixtures, hand-selected book matched marble, and masterfully crafted Italian stonework; at least 10-foot-high ceilings; pre-installed smart home technology including lighting, climate control and water/air filtration systems; high-performance interior wall soundproofing for ultimate relaxation and privacy; and large 13-foot-deep waterfront terraces – and up to 6,000 square feet of private rooftop space in penthouses – allowing for year-round outdoor dining, lounging and entertaining.

Spanning 20-acres, Grove Isle is considered one of Miami’s most exclusive private islands, located in Coconut Grove, just minutes away from mainland Miami via the scenic Grove Isle Drive bridge. The secluded community is highly prized by residents as a peaceful haven with panoramic bay views. The island is in close proximity to Miami’s best shopping, most elite schools, chef-driven restaurants, and entertainment destinations in areas such as Brickell, Miami Beach, and Coral Gables and has been described as one of the most affluent neighborhoods in the United States.

Ugo Colombo’s commitment to timeless style, breathtaking luxury and meticulous detail has been a constant in the sea of change that has come to define Miami real estate over the past three decades. In 1993, the Italian developer’s CMC Group began building Bristol Tower, the condo that ignited the luxury residential boom in Miami. Bristol Tower’s success was followed by the launch of Santa Maria in 1996, the 52-story tower whose ‘mansions in the sky’ reshaped the Brickell skyline and put the district on the map as one of the world’s top-tier luxury markets.

Since then, CMC Group has focused on developing only a handful of condominium developments – Porto Vita, Grovenor House, EPIC Hotel & Residences and Brickell Flatiron – all of which enhanced their respective communities and retained value by competing with pricing of new product on the market today. The firm recently delivered Onda Residences in Miami’s Bay Harbor Islands, a luxury boutique condominium in partnership with Morabito Properties, and launched sales for the Four Seasons Private Residences Coconut Grove, the hotel flag’s first standalone residential project in Florida.

It was truly a once-or-twice-in-a-lifetime event,” said Nicholas Perez, President of Related’s Condominium Division. “We are incredibly grateful to JMA, our subcontractors and engineers for their participation in this monumental undertaking, which required a tremendous amount of coordination and planning.”

Located on one of the last waterfront parcels along Brickell Avenue, where the Miami River meets Biscayne Bay, the 75-story tower is crafted by the world’s preeminent design talents, with architecture by international firm Arquitectónica, interiors by the NYC based Meyer Davis Studio and landscape design by swiss architect Enzo Enea.

The sister property to the record-breaking Baccarat Hotel & Residences NYC, the Brickell tower is made up of 355 residences, including just eight exclusive penthouses. The property, which has enjoyed record sales success, is now 95% sold, with selected premium residences remaining for sale. Fortune International Realty is the exclusive sales agency for Baccarat Residences Miami.

Residents will enjoy over 75,000 SF of luxurious five-star amenities throughout five levels of the tower that will be cohesive in essence but unique in design elements — including exquisitely appointed social spaces, a state-of-the-art health and fitness center, La Mer spa facilities, a private marina for residents’ yachts and a curated collection on museum-quality art — all expertly managed by SH Hotels & Resorts.

Pastis Set To Open In West Palm Beach's Nora District

Quintessential New York City Parisian-style brasserie, Pastis, by James Beard Award-winning restaurateur Stephen Starr (STARR Restaurants), will open in The NORA District in West Palm Beach as The Nora Hotel’s ground floor restaurant.

Quintessential New York City Parisian-style brasserie, Pastis, by James Beard Award-winning restaurateur Stephen Starr (STARR Restaurants), will open in The NORA District in West Palm Beach as The Nora Hotel’s ground floor restaurant. In addition to Pastis, STARR Restaurants will co-create the hotel’s rooftop restaurant and lounge as well as operate in-room dining service. This will mark the fourth location for Pastis, with existing restaurants in Manhattan’s Meatpacking District, Washington D.C. and Miami.

The Nora Hotel will be a 201-key boutique hotel developed in partnership with BD Hotels and Sean MacPherson. BD Hotels is notably behind some of New York City’s most iconic hotels including The Greenwich, The Bowery, The Mercer, Hotel Chelsea and others. The Nora Hotel marks BD Hotels second hotel collaboration with Wheelock Street Capital, after the successful relaunch of Hotel Chelsea in 2023.

“At its core, Nora is a district rooted in hospitality. The Nora Hotel will serve as a focal point of the district, a place where guests can experience world-class hospitality paired with impressive food and beverage operators, among other lifestyle and wellness-driven tenants just steps away from the hotel. We look forward to welcoming Pastis as one of the greatest neighborhood bistros in the country to anchor what we believe will be the premier hotel offering in West Palm Beach,” said Richard Born, owner of BD Hotels.

Pastis West Palm Beach will mark the second location for the concept in South Florida. The critically acclaimed restaurant has anchored Manhattan’s Meatpacking District for nearly 15 years, expanding into Miami’s Wynwood Arts District in May 2023 and Washington D.C. in January 2024.

“Since opening Pastis in Miami last year, the positive response to the restaurant has been astounding. Residents of Palm Beach, West Palm Beach and the surrounding areas have asked me countless times to bring Pastis to their neighborhood. With the development of Nora, one of the most exciting and ambitious projects to hit South Florida, we are now going to make that a reality. STARR Restaurants is proud to work with Richard Born and his team to be a part of this incredible project,” said Stephen Starr, founder and CEO of STARR Restaurants.

Pastis West Palm Beach will encompass 13,300 square feet of The Nora Hotel’s ground floor including both indoor and outdoor spaces. The restaurant, which is set to transport guests to a classic Parisian brasserie, will feature the brand’s iconic curved zinc bar, white subway tiles and signature red banquettes. Guests can expect Pastis’ classic hors d’oeuvres such as French Onion Soup, Escargots, Tuna Carpaccio, and Warm Shrimp Salad. A selection of traditional Steak Frites will be available with different cuts of beef, along with entrées such as Moules Frites, Duck Confit, Chicken Paillard and Grilled Branzino. Cocktails will feature an array of options like the St. Tropez Spritz, Lady Marmalade and a mini martini called Le Petit Pickle.

Developed by NDT Development, Place Projects and Wheelock Street Capital, Nora will be a dynamic district that breathes new life into Downtown West Palm Beach, becoming the ultimate amenity for the greater Palm Beach County community.

Phase I of Nora, which will include over 150,000 square feet of adaptive reuse and new development, broke ground in June 2023 and is slated for completion in early 2025. Turn-of-the-century railway warehouses will be reimagined into ground-floor retail celebrating local and national talent with innovative open spaces and art in public places. Phase I will also include over 55,000 square feet of second-floor Class-A office space.

As Downtown West Palm Beach rapidly evolves, Nora is set to become the epicenter of dining, arts and culture. Additional confirmed retailers include Loco Taqueria & Oyster Bar, H&H Bagels, Van Leeuwen Ice Cream, The Garret Group, Juliana’s Pizza, Celis Juice Bar and Café, Del Mar Mediterranean Restaurant, Sana Skin Studio, Mint, The Spot Barbershop, [solidcore] and Sunday Motor Co. with more to be announced.

Nora’s comprehensive master plan is led by the City of West Palm Beach and nationally acclaimed urban planning firm PlusUrbia.
