Eighteen Sunset, a highly anticipated mixed-use boutique development in Miami Beach’s Sunset Harbour neighborhood, has achieved full occupancy for its premium office spaces. The 17,708 square feet of Class A+ office space has been fully leased, highlighting the surging demand for luxury work environments in Miami Beach.

Colliers, led by Vice Chair Stephen Rutchik, managed the leasing process on behalf of the landlords, Deco Capital Group and RWN Real Estate Partners. CBRE’s Executive Vice Presidents Jeff Gordon and Barbara Black represented the tenants in the transactions.

The property has attracted a carefully curated mix of tenants, including a globally recognized private equity firm and luxury lifestyle brand Audemars Piguet. Both organizations were drawn to Eighteen Sunset’s unique blend of high-end design, waterfront views, and proximity to Miami Beach’s dynamic cultural and business hubs.

Developed by Deco Capital Group and constructed by Origin Construction, Eighteen Sunset is located at 1759 Purdy Avenue, offering tenants direct access to Maurice Gibb Park, the Sunset Harbour Marina, and upscale dining and retail options. Its strategic location combines proximity to Miami Beach’s active community with unobstructed views of the Intracoastal Waterway and Venetian Islands.

Stephen Rutchik of Colliers emphasized the property’s role in meeting modern workspace needs: “Eighteen Sunset represents the future of workspaces in Miami Beach. Its boutique design, unmatched amenities, and premier location reflect the evolving preferences of businesses seeking more than just office space.”

Slated for completion later this year, Eighteen Sunset is poised to set a new benchmark for elite office environments in Miami Beach’s competitive real estate market.

FIRST ON PROFILE: Allen Morris Company Reveals Transformative Mixed-Use Development in the Heart of Coconut Grove

Allen Morris Co., one of the leading real estate firms in the Southeast U.S., has revealed a transformative new mixed-use development in the heart of Coconut Grove. The iconic Oppenheim Architecture-designed plans invite the community in and complement the natural environment of the Grove and enhance walkability.

FIRST ON PROFILE: Allen Morris Co., one of the leading real estate firms in the Southeast U.S., has revealed a transformative new mixed-use development in the heart of Coconut Grove. The iconic Oppenheim Architecture-designed plans invite the community in and complement the natural environment of the Grove and enhance walkability.

The project, located at 3101 Grand Avenue at the intersection of Grand Avenue, Matilda Street and Florida Ave, will span approximately 1.7 acres and include an office, residential, and retail component, all of which reflect the vibrant and unique character of Coconut Grove. The project’s name is still being finalized.

The proposed development will include a five-story office building comprising 100,000 square feet of world-class office space, a three-story condominium building with 20 ultra-luxury residences, and approximately 40,000 square feet of retail space on the ground floor of the two structures. A standout feature of the project will be a rooftop restaurant offering panoramic views of Biscayne Bay.

The development will also feature pedestrian-friendly paseos leading to a central interior courtyard filled with lush plantings that will create a relaxing environment for residents, workers and visitors alike. The ground floor retail spaces will spill into this area, with plans for a mix of shops, restaurants, and wellness-oriented concepts.

Prices will range from $2.5m to $8m.

The Allen Morris Company will be partnering with the Espinosa family on the development, a long standing and well-regarded family in the Grove who have owned and operated a business on the parcel since 1961. They plan to open a new location nearby, within Coconut Grove, to continue operations and will open an outlet of Coconut Grove Laundry & Cleaners on the site once the property is redeveloped.

As evidence of its commitment to the project and the community, The Allen Morris Company will be moving their corporate headquarters to the proposed office building where they plan to occupy approximately 15,000 square feet. The firm, however, will maintain its family office presence at its award-winning Alhambra Towers in Coral Gables.

“This site is the jewel at the center of historic downtown Coconut Grove. We feel strongly compelled to create a project on the site that captures the essence of The Grove: blending the natural and built environments and harmonizing through its design the residential and commercial elements of this neighborhood,” says Spencer Morris, President of Allen Morris Co. “Moving our corporate offices to Coconut Grove is also a defining moment in our 66-year history.”

“It was essential for us to ensure the project embodies the incomparable spirit of Coconut Grove and contributes positively to the neighborhood while allowing us to continue to serve Coconut Grove and surrounding areas where we have operated our business for more than 60 years,” said an Espinosa Family representative. “Our desire was to create something we could take pride in—an endeavor that leaves a meaningful and lasting legacy for future generations, and we believe we have found the best partner possible in Allen Morris Co. because of their commitment to embrace and preserve the Grove’s uniqueness”

Ryan Holtzman, Andrew Trench and Brian Gale with Cushman & Wakefield will manage office leasing alongside Thad Adams with The Allen Morris Company. The Saddy Delgado team with ONE Sotheby’s International Realty will oversee condominium sales. Daniel Cardenas and Michael Sullivan with Vertical Real Estate will lead the retail leasing efforts.

“The project will redefine the office experience in Coconut Grove, combining cutting-edge architecture, state-of-the-art amenities and a deep connection to the vibrant Grove community,” adds Ryan Holtzman, Executive Managing Director, Cushman & Wakefield. “It will set the gold standard in the office world—offering tenants an unparalleled blend of style, warmth and inspiration. It will undoubtably drive a flight to quality, drawing Miami’s top firms and attracting new-to-market firms from leading global cities,”

Designed by Oppenheim Architecture, the development will be a captivating addition to Coconut Grove’s landscape, blending the area's rich natural surroundings with modern architectural elements. The building will incorporate lush plantings, with oolite stone cladding and other natural materials throughout the design to compliment the neighborhood’s distinctive style. Andres Arcila, with Naturalficial, will direct the landscape design for the project.

“This project sets a new standard for luxury living in Coconut Grove, a market that continues to be one of the most sought-after in South Florida,” said Daniel de la Vega, President of ONE Sotheby’s International Realty. “The residences present a rare opportunity to own a home in a Chad Oppenheim-designed building located at the center of it all—with unbeatable walkability and access to the best of the neighborhood. We are proud to represent a development of this caliber and contribute to the continued evolution of Coconut Grove.”

In addition to the development’s focus on community and sustainability, Allen Morris Co. and the Espinosa family are proposing to partner with the City of Miami by agreeing to manage and financially contribute to a series of public improvements to the nearby Kirk Munroe Park and Fuller Street that will realign the civic heart of Coconut Grove and reinforce the neighborhood’s pedestrian character.

Terra And GFO Investments Deliver Tallest Tower in Miami Beach, Five Park Miami Beach

Miami Beach-In 2020, David Martin and Russell Galbut sat down to conceptualize a challenging yet coveted project—a parcel of land at Miami Beach’s entrance, primed for development. Driven by Terra’s commitment to resiliency and conscious design, the two developers envisioned Miami Beach’s tallest tower, featuring luxury residences, top-tier amenities and a public park.

Miami Beach-In 2020, David Martin and Russell Galbut sat down to conceptualize a challenging yet coveted project—a parcel of land at Miami Beach’s entrance, primed for development. Driven by Terra’s commitment to resiliency and conscious design, the two developers envisioned Miami Beach’s tallest tower, featuring luxury residences, top-tier amenities and a public park designed to meet environmental and community goals. Now complete, Five Park Miami Beach, the first new luxury residential tower in Miami Beach in over a decade, delivers an unmatched product to a high-demand market, showcasing innovation and foresight while enhancing the city’s access to green spaces.

Initially proposed as a building occupying six to seven acres, the developers adapted the plan, reducing the tower’s footprint to two acres and dedicating the remaining acreage to green space. To gain additional height, they donated the adjacent three-acre Canopy Park, now open to the community.

Now complete and standing 48 stories tall at the entrance to South Beach, Five Park holds the title of the tallest tower in Miami Beach, serving as an iconic gateway to the highly coveted island community. The project showcases the elevated standard that only legacy developers can bring, conceptualized by a compilation of the greatest leaders and visionaries at every level.

“Five Park exemplifies our commitment to creating iconic developments that elevate urban living and help cities realize their full potential,” said David Martin, CEO of Terra. “This tower offers world-class amenities and exceptional design, while seamlessly integrating with Miami Beach’s cultural fabric and enhancing the area’s resiliency.”

A visionary design team of nearly a dozen icons, tastemakers, architects, designers and brands was assembled to create the most elevated residential experience from the inside and out. The team includes Arquitectonica, the lead architectural firm; New York-based firm Gabellini Sheppard for interiors; design maven Anda Andrei, who served as design director bringing her expertise from iconic projects including the Delano South Beach, Gramercy Park Hotel and more; Cultured Magazine’s Sarah Harrelson who led the art curation; and French conceptual artist Daniel Buren, whose works can be found in the Tate Modern, Palais Royal and Museum of Modern Art, for the iconic Canopy Bridge design. Interior designs for residences include models by Meyer Davis, RH, B&B Italia and Addison House.

“The design concept for the building combines every element of Miami Beach alongside a fusion of hospitality and residential features to create an incredible quality of life,” says Anda Andrei, design director of Five Park. “From the residents-only club to the landscape of the amenity deck that aim to create surprising new environments and stunning escapes at every turn, all components are creating an evolved living standard.”

Delivered in 2022, the three-acre Canopy Park serves as a “green lung” for the city, harmonizing with surrounding ecosystems and offering features like a botanical garden, interactive MONSTRUM playground, dog park, and event lawn. Designed with resilience in mind, the park includes varied topography for stormwater management, a “Dry River” bioswale system to filter rainwater, and a 25,000-gallon underground cistern for irrigation. Native plants promote biodiversity and habitat restoration, while salt-tolerant grass and a broad tree canopy enhance sustainability.

The Daniel Buren-designed Canopy Bridge, set to break ground this month, will offer pedestrian access via the 158-foot-long enclosed overhead artistic bridge connecting Five Park to the South of Fifth neighborhood for the first time.

“Five Park represents the dynamic evolution of Miami Beach," said Russell Galbut, Chairman of GFO Investments. "The tower, along with the Canopy Bridge pedestrian walkway to South of Fifth and Canopy Park, introduces a level of design and innovation that the neighborhood has not seen before. We are proud to collaborate with the city to bring these transformative experiences to our community.”

As the first tower to be delivered to Miami Beach in over a decade, it also presents a unique opportunity for brand-new, move-in-ready, luxury residences to the Miami Beach market. The advanced delivery compared to the rest of the activity for new residential development still in development, permitting or proposed phase demonstrates the developers’ unique foresight and capability to launch ahead of the rest of the market.

“Miami’s appeal grew stronger during the pandemic as families began putting greater emphasis on quality of life and more businesses embraced remote work,” said Martin. “Today, Miami is viewed as a desirable place to grow a business, raise a family and invest capital. All of this supports our thesis at Five Park, where our team of design, urban planning, and artistic visionaries are reimagining the idea of luxury living in Miami Beach.”

The tower has attracted a diverse demographic that reflects the growth of Miami’s evolving real estate landscape. Buyers for the project come predominantly from domestic markets, with strong interest from Northeastern cities such as New York, Connecticut and Boston.

Five Park Miami Beach offers 50,000 square feet of meticulously curated amenity spaces for its residents. At the heart of these amenities is The Park Club on the sixth floor, anchored by the Cafe Flora serving seasonal menus by James Beard award-winning chef Michelle Bernstein. Additionally, the amenity deck boasts a selection of pools with covered cabanas and loungers for poolside relaxation, all with sweeping city and bay views. Inside, residents can enjoy a variety of wellness, work and entertainment spaces, including a fully outfitted gym and spa, treatment rooms, a co-working area with private offices and board rooms, screening rooms and more. Residents also have their very own stretch of sand and sea with the tower’s branded beach club accessible via chauffeured Five Park Moke.

On the ground floor, residents have direct access to their backyard oasis, Canopy Park, offering a refuge from city living.

The move-in-ready residences at Five Park range from one to four bedrooms and start at $1.5 million. The tower’s unique elliptical form allows for 360-degree panoramic views of the city, beach and bay, maximizing natural light and providing residents with expansive floor plans and balconies that emphasize connectivity to the outdoors. Fully furnished model homes by RH, B&B Italia and Addison House are available for view and purchase for a turn-key experience.

Moss Construction successfully oversaw the tower’s construction, delivering the project on schedule. The firm has also recently begun work on Villa Miami, one of Terra’s latest projects in Edgewater, a luxury condo tower branded by Major Food Group as well as Jean-Georges Miami Tropic Residences in Midtown Miami.

The loan was provided by TYKO Capital, a multi-billion-dollar commercial real estate investment management platform led by Adi Chugh.

As the first new ultra-luxury condo tower in the exclusive Village of Bal Harbour in more than a decade, Rivage has seen robust demand since its unveiling in January of 2023.

Pearl and Michael Herman’s Premium Capital purchased the property in 2018 and partnered with visionary developers Steven and Alex Witkoff to build Shell Bay Club and the Auberge Hotel and Branded Residences.

“The lifestyle we’re developing at Shell Bay is second to none,” said Ari Pearl, Founder and President of PPG Development. “Achieving this important milestone is a marker of Shell Bays success, and we value the trust our lenders have in us.”

The closing of the loan comes just before the groundbreaking of The Residences at Shell Bay, a 20-story condo tower serviced by Auberge. Featuring architecture by Kobi Karp and interiors by AvroKO, The Residences at Shell Bay is imagined as an oasis for those who live exceptionally. While the 108- residence tower is expected to open in 2027, residents already have immediate access to the amenities within Shell Bay’s idyllic private club setting. The opportunity to enjoy exclusive sporting and leisure experiences in advance of a building’s completion is a rare and hugely appealing draw for clientele in today’s new development market.

Currently open at Shell Bay and available to future residents is a private championship golf course designed by World Golf Hall of Famer Greg Norman, a 12-acre practice facility, nine-hole Par 3 course, a Racquet Club featuring all four Grand Slam surfaces, pickleball and padel courts, basketball courts, batting cages and a children's discovery playground. The destination will also boast a 48-slip private marina for direct water access to the Intracoastal, a private members’ clubhouse with an indoor/outdoor wellness spa, elevated event spaces, an array of dining venues and more. Plans for the boutique 60- key Auberge hotel and spa that will house many of these exclusive experiences are underway.

The Residences at Shell Bay provides a rare ownership opportunity to buyers seeking an elite lifestyle within this coveted destination. Central to the concept is the thoughtful interior design by AvroKO. Open-concept layouts offer panoramic views of the golf course, fairways and Intracoastal Waterway, while the custom kitchens bring high-performance, chef-caliber Gaggenau appliances together with exquisite craftsmanship. This includes finishes like custom white oak cabinetry, honed marble countertops and burnished brass hardware. The residences blur the line between indoor and outdoor living and deliver a true sanctuary for tranquility and refinement.

Further providing an unmatched lifestyle is a private collection of ultra-luxury, resident-only amenities that complement the offerings available throughout the Shell Bay Club and future Auberge hotel. A world-class food and beverage program led by Michelin-starred Chef Julien Jouhannaud offers residents private dining, and a resort-style swimming pool, full-service medical day spa, as well as a fitness center with indoor and outdoor facilities prime for personal or small-group training refine the wellness component. Children’s amenities keep kids of all ages happy and engaged, from a children’s play lab and creation studio to a gaming lounge, screening room with candy bar and a game room with bowling alley.

Merrimac Ventures Unveils Plans for Bungalow East Residences in Fort Lauderdale Beach

Merrimac Ventures, a renowned South Florida real estate investment and development firm, has announced the launch of sales for Bungalow East, an exclusive luxury condominium set to rise in Fort Lauderdale Beach. The 14-story boutique development will house just 34 residences, each designed with refined elegance and offering extensive amenities in one of the area’s most walkable and desirable beachside communities.

Merrimac Ventures, a renowned South Florida real estate investment and development firm, has announced the launch of sales for Bungalow East, an exclusive luxury condominium set to rise in Fort Lauderdale Beach. The 14-story boutique development will house just 34 residences, each designed with refined elegance and offering extensive amenities in one of the area’s most walkable and desirable beachside communities.

Situated at 530 North Birch Road, Bungalow East is positioned steps from both the Atlantic Ocean and the Intracoastal Waterway. The project, anticipated to break ground in late 2025 with an 18-month construction timeline, embodies Merrimac Ventures’ legacy of transforming Fort Lauderdale Beach from a seasonal “Spring Break haven” into a premier resort destination. This vision was first ignited by the Motwani family over 35 years ago through the strategic acquisition and redevelopment of oceanfront motels, paving the way for acclaimed developments like the Four Seasons Hotel and Residences, the Conrad Hotel, and Paramount Fort Lauderdale.

“Fort Lauderdale Beach’s transformation has been extraordinary,” said Dev Motwani, Co-Managing Partner of Merrimac Ventures. “Our family has been invested in this community for decades, and Bungalow East is a special project that completes our vision for this area.”

Bungalow East will feature spacious three- and four-bedroom residences ranging from 2,100 to 2,800 square feet, with options for flexible floor plans. Two exclusive penthouses, each spanning approximately 4,000 square feet and boasting private rooftop decks, are also part of the offering. Homes are priced between $2 million and $4 million and will feature floor-to-ceiling windows, expansive terraces with summer kitchens, and high-end finishes that evoke a sense of sophisticated luxury.

The building's design, a collaboration between Swedroe Architecture and Adriana Hoyos Design Studio, embraces natural elements with neutral palettes, wood accents, and sleek modern finishes. Each residence will come equipped with private elevators and chef-inspired kitchens complete with gas-range stoves, emphasizing the development’s focus on upscale, functional living.

Amenities at Bungalow East are designed for a lifestyle of relaxed luxury. Highlights include a resort-style pool deck, a wellness center with massage rooms and a beauty salon, a rooftop sunset lounge, and a yoga lawn. Additional offerings include a gaming and entertainment lounge, a conference center, and pet-friendly features such as a dog run and spa. A ground-floor retail space is slated to house a future café or wine bar, adding to the neighborhood's vibrant atmosphere.

Residents will also gain membership privileges at the Fort Lauderdale Yacht Club and exclusive access to the Conrad Hotel Fort Lauderdale, which includes beach service and full use of the hotel's amenities.

“OneWorld Properties is thrilled to lead the sales and marketing of Bungalow East,” said Peggy Olin, CEO of OneWorld Properties. “This development will redefine luxury living in Fort Lauderdale Beach, offering residents both exclusivity and convenience in an unparalleled location.”

Fort Lauderdale Beach continues to attract a wave of new residents and investors, driven by Florida’s favorable tax policies and high quality of life. Bungalow East is poised to cater to this growing demand, appealing to locals and out-of-state buyers seeking proximity to the beach and access to South Florida’s vibrant culture.

The community’s prime location offers residents easy access to North Beach Village’s top dining and entertainment spots, including The Secret Garden Dining Club, Truluck’s, and Casablanca Café, as well as cultural attractions like the Bonnet House Museum & Gardens and the trails of Birch State Park.
