Related Group and BH Group Break Ground on Icon Beach Waterfront Residences in Hollywood

Hollywood's rise as one of South Florida's most coveted coastal destinations takes a defining step forward today with the official groundbreaking of Icon Beach Waterfront Residences. Developed by Related Group and BH Group, the 38-story, 350-residence tower rises above a shoreline perfectly situated between Miami and Fort Lauderdale, delivering a rare dual-water lifestyle anchored by a private 32-slip marina and resident-exclusive beach club.

Hollywood's rise as one of South Florida's most coveted coastal destinations takes a defining step forward today with the official groundbreaking of Icon Beach Waterfront Residences. Developed by Related Group and BH Group, the 38-story, 350-residence tower rises above a shoreline perfectly situated between Miami and Fort Lauderdale, delivering a rare dual-water lifestyle anchored by a private 32-slip marina and resident-exclusive beach club at a price point that remains among the most compelling on South Florida's coastline.

The groundbreaking follows the recent closing of a $360 million construction loan from Tyko Capital, underscoring institutional confidence in both the Hollywood market and the development team behind it. With completion anticipated in 2028, the vision is rapidly coming to fruition.

“For years, Hollywood existed in the shadow of South Florida's more established coastal destinations. Not anymore,” said Nick Pérez, President of Related Group's Condominium Division. “The city is experiencing a remarkable transformation, and what we're building here is a direct reflection of that momentum. Today, we’ve started work on a destination where exceptional design, resort-inspired amenities and an unparalleled waterfront lifestyle come together for buyers who expect the very best and see Hollywood as the place to find it."

Positioned between the Atlantic Ocean and the Intracoastal Waterway, Icon Beach places residents at the center of South Florida's most extraordinary natural assets. With panoramic views stretching from sunrise over the ocean to sunset across the Intracoastal, the tower is crafted to celebrate water at every turn.

Envisioned by Cohen Freedman Encinosa & Associates with interiors by the award-winning Meyer Davis and landscape architecture by Witkin Hults + Partners, the development offers one- to three-bedroom residences spanning 948 to 2,580 square feet along one of South Florida's most sought-after stretches of coastline. Open-concept floor plans, floor-to-ceiling glass and oversized sliding doors open onto generous private terraces where the horizon stretches in every direction.

Primary suites offer a serene counterpoint, with spacious walk-in closets, spa-style bathrooms and soaking tubs appointed with fixtures from Kohler and Hansgrohe that transform everyday routines into something worth savoring. Kitchens are outfitted for both form and function with custom Italian cabinetry, large center islands and imported porcelain countertops in two curated finishes, paired with a premium suite of Bosch and Thermador appliances that bring a chef-inspired sensibility to every meal.

"What makes Icon Beach special isn't just its location, but how deeply the building is connected to the water around it," said Isaac Toledano, Founder of BH Group. "That philosophy extends from the residences themselves to the private marina, the exclusive beach club and the resort-style amenities designed around life on the water. The intention behind every detail is felt from every angle and there is simply nothing else in the market that comes close."

At Icon Beach, 40,000 square feet of amenity space unfolds around a single organizing principle: life is better on the water. The sparkling resort-style pool with sun shelf serves as the social heart of the property, flanked by stylish private cabanas and a tranquil spa and wellness center complete with cold plunge, steam room and Jacuzzi. A state-of-the-art 3,000-square-foot health club, equipped with advanced cardio and weight training equipment and dedicated yoga rooms, ensures that wellness is never more than an elevator ride away.

Beyond the pool deck, an outdoor cinema, sunset yoga lawn, summer kitchens and a reservable event space overlooking the Intracoastal Waterway create a setting that shifts effortlessly from a quiet morning to an evening among friends. A residents' gathering lounge and alfresco cocktail bar round out an amenity program conceived for every hour of the day.

Access to a private marina and a full-service beach club extend the Icon Beach lifestyle to the open ocean and Hollywood's beautiful shoreline. A dedicated concierge, 24-hour front desk, valet and security team ensure that every arrival feels like a welcome, and every request is met without hesitation. Select works from the world-renowned Jorge M. Pérez Contemporary Art Collection are woven throughout the common areas, lending Icon Beach a cultural depth that runs as deep as its design.

Icon Beach arrives at a pivotal moment for Hollywood, which recently celebrated its centennial anniversary – a milestone that reflects its remarkable evolution from a quiet beachfront retreat into one of the most sought-after waterfront destinations in South Florida. The Diplomat Beach Resort, long a cornerstone of the city's hospitality identity, recently reopened after a transformation and rebranding as Signia by Hilton, signaling the caliber of investment now flowing into the market. The Broward County Convention Center continues to drive consistent business activity, while ongoing development along the Hollywood Beach Broadwalk and a wave of acclaimed restaurants moving north from Miami are reshaping the city's culinary and cultural landscape. Sophisticated buyers are increasingly drawn to Hollywood's rare combination of natural beauty and urban convenience, and Icon Beach is where that demand finds its answer.

Newgard Group and Two Roads Development Mark Major Construction Milestone at One Brickell Riverfront With Installation of Architectural Crowns

The two residential towers rising at One Brickell Riverfront commemorated another landmark moment in their construction with the installation of architectural crowns atop both LOFTY Brickell and The Standard Residences, Brickell. With this milestone, both towers now reach their full architectural heights, and their distinctive silhouettes are beginning to redefine the Brickell skyline.

The two residential towers rising at One Brickell Riverfront commemorated another landmark moment in their construction with the installation of architectural crowns atop both LOFTY Brickell at 44 stories and The Standard Residences, Brickell at 46 stories. With this milestone, both towers now reach their full architectural heights, and their distinctive silhouettes are beginning to redefine the Brickell skyline.

The crown is more than a finishing touch. It is the moment a tower stops resembling a construction site and starts looking like a landmark. The crowns of both towers serve a functional purpose while completing the bold visual statement that architect Arquitectonica envisioned from the very beginning.

Both towers are now visible throughout Brickell, Downtown Miami, and along the Miami River - permanent additions to one of the most dynamic skylines in the U.S.

“For buyers who first fell in love with the project through renderings, seeing the crowns in place marks the moment their dream becomes an undeniable reality,” said Harvey Hernandez, CEO of Newgard Group. “What started on paper is now a full-scale landmark, and we could not be prouder of the team that made it happen.”

“The crown milestone signals to the market, and our buyers, that the finish line is well within sight,” said Brad Meltzer, Partner and President of Two Roads Development. “One Brickell Riverfront is becoming exactly what we promised - a defining piece of Miami's riverfront and new standard for urban residential living.”

General contractor G.T. McDonald topped off the building in January 2026. Construction on both towers continues ahead of schedule, with delivery targeted for August 2027. The crown completion marks the transition into enhancing the building’s exterior aesthetics and interior finishing work across both buildings.

LOFTY Brickell is a 44-story tower featuring 362 fully furnished studios, one- and two-bedroom residences and penthouses, with interiors by INC. Its 40,000 square feet of amenities include a private marina, resort-style pool deck, fitness center, spa, cigar lounge and co-working spaces. New York City-based AVRA Estiatorio will bring its acclaimed Coastal Greek dining experience to LOFTY's ground floor, with waterfront views of the Miami River.

Just seven penthouse residences remain available, with prices ranging from $2.4 to $3.5 million. LOFTY’s flexible ownership model allows owners the ability to rent out their residences on their own terms. Cervera Real Estate is the exclusive sales and marketing partner.

The Standard Residences, Brickell rises 46 stories and offers 422 fully furnished studios, one- and two-bedroom residences with interiors by GOODRICH, priced from the mid $600,000s. Multi-level amenities include a rooftop pool, The Standard Club Lounge and Café, co-working spaces, a 10th-floor spa with Hammam, saunas and cold plunge, bowling alley and lounge, pet spa, screening room and signature dining. ONE Sotheby's International Realty is leading sales.

One Brickell Riverfront is located at 99 SW Seventh Street, along the northwest corner of Brickell City Centre. The project closed $513 million in construction financing in late 2025 - one of the largest residential construction loans in South Florida last year. An undisclosed private lender provided $370 million in senior financing while 3650 Capital originated a $143 million mezzanine loan.

Newgard Group and Two Roads Development formed their strategic partnership in November 2024 to transform one of Brickell's last undeveloped riverfront sites into a vibrant, integrated residential destination.

Alba Palm Beach has announced its completion at 95% sold, marking the delivery of the first new residential project along North Flagler within the city’s burgeoning Northwood neighborhood. With direct access to the Intracoastal Waterway, Alba Palm Beach arrives as a new wave of residential and commercial investment continues to reshape the area increasingly recognized as West Palm Beach’s “Billionaire’s Corridor.”

Alba Palm Beach has announced its completion at 95% sold, marking the delivery of the first new residential project along North Flagler within the city’s burgeoning Northwood neighborhood. With direct access to the Intracoastal Waterway, Alba Palm Beach arrives as a new wave of residential and commercial investment continues to reshape the area increasingly recognized as West Palm Beach’s “Billionaire’s Corridor.”

Developed by BGI Companies alongside Blue Road, constructed by Moss and with interiors by Spina O’Rourke + Partners, Alba Palm Beach begins at $2.5 million and comprises 55 boutique waterfront residences across a 22-story tower along the Intracoastal Waterway. The property offers a range of floor plans, from expansive waterfront residences to a limited collection of townhomes, a distinctive offering for new construction in West Palm Beach that has since completely sold out. Alba Palm Beach is also home to a Horizon Penthouse Collection, a limited series of six residences spanning floors 19 through 21 with 11-foot ceilings, private elevator access and sweeping views of the Intracoastal, Atlantic Ocean and Palm Beach Island.

“When I first looked at this stretch of waterfront six years ago, I believed West Palm Beach was on the verge of a major transformation,” said Kenneth Baboun, managing partner of BGI Companies and principal developer of Alba Palm Beach. “You could already see the momentum building, from new business and investment coming into the city to a growing demand for a higher level of luxury residential living. The response to Alba has reinforced what I saw early on, both in the future of Northwood and in the demand for a more boutique waterfront product tailored to how today’s luxury buyer wants to live. I’m incredibly proud of what Alba delivers to the market, what it represents for the continued growth of this corridor and now being able to welcome residents home.”

"West Palm Beach has become one of the most important luxury markets in the country, and Alba Palm Beach stands as a beacon of this city’s incredible transformation,” said Daniel de la Vega, President & CEO of ONE Sotheby’s International Realty. “The project represents the caliber of design, craftsmanship, and waterfront living that today’s buyers expect, and has set a new benchmark for high-end development in the region."

Alba Palm Beach offers more than 25,000 square feet of resort-caliber amenities, including a private dining room with temperature-controlled wine storage, a state-of-the-art fitness center with Technogym equipment and a Pilates reformer, sunrise and sunset pools, and onsite day docks along the Intracoastal. The development also integrates a series of exclusive partnerships designed to elevate the residential experience, including medical concierge services through Mount Sinai Health System and a one-year membership to the Palm Beach Yacht Club.

Inspired by the surrounding Intracoastal Waterway and Atlantic Ocean, the residences feature a soft, natural material palette and sculptural design elements complemented by turnkey furniture packages by Artefacto. “Our vision for Alba was to create interiors that felt both elegant and deeply connected to the surrounding waterfront,” said Tammy O’Rourke, principal and director of interior design at Spina O’Rourke + Partners. “The material palette and overall design language were intentionally shaped by the natural textures and tones of the Intracoastal and Atlantic.”

One Sotheby’s International Realty is the exclusive sales and marketing team for Alba Palm Beach. Alba Palm Beach is located at 4714 N. Flagler Dr. West Palm Beach, FL 33407

The Standard Residences Completed in Midtown Miami as Brand’s First Ever Standalone Residential Project Worldwide

The Standard Residences, Midtown Miami, the first-ever exclusively residential project from the iconic global brand, has announced its completion, marking the opening of the first new residential building in Midtown in nearly a decade. Developed by Rosso Development, in partnership with Hyatt, and Midtown Development, the 12-story pied-à-terre-style building arrives as a milestone in the continued evolution of one of Miami’s most walkable and vibrant destinations.

The Standard Residences, Midtown Miami, the first-ever exclusively residential project from the iconic global brand, has announced its completion, marking the opening of the first new residential building in Midtown in nearly a decade. Developed by Rosso Development, in partnership with Hyatt, and Midtown Development, the 12-story pied-à-terre-style building arrives as a milestone in the continued evolution of one of Miami’s most walkable and vibrant destinations.

“We wanted to create a building that doesn’t just exist in the neighborhood but participates in it,” said Carlos Rosso, Founder of Rosso Development. “We are incredibly proud to deliver a lifestyle where design, culture, and community meet. The Standard is a true gathering place authentic to the neighborhood, designed to bring people together and contribute to the creative energy that makes this part of Miami so special.”

Designed by Arquitectonica with interiors by Urban Robot in collaboration with The Standard’s award-winning in-house team, the project comprises 228 residences that blend culture, social connection and style with world-class design, amenities and service. The building showcases more than 34,000 square feet of resort-caliber amenities including a lively rooftop reminiscent of the vibe The Standard pioneered from LA to New York to London, with lush landscaping by Naturalficial, a 60-foot resort-style pool and Solana rooftop restaurant and bar by the acclaimed Juvia Group.

A series of social and wellness amenities include a state-of-the-art fitness center, yoga and stretch studios, an infrared sauna, co-working spaces, a screening room, and a pickleball court that doubles as a disco room. The lobby and gathering areas serve as an art gallery, with works by Argentinian artists Gaspar Libedinsky and Patricio Escobedo, as well as South Florida-based Jen Clay and Venezuelan-American fiber artist also based in Miami, Lisu Vega. Inspired by the neighborhood’s urban energy, the lifestyle experience is further elevated by on-site culinary and social destinations including Sushi Garage, Mannarino, Rosetta Bakery Café, and the Privato Speakeasy.

“The Standard has the unique ability to make a neighborhood come to life, from the Meatpacking District to King’s Cross and we see the same dynamic at play in Midtown Miami,” said Amar Lalvani, President and Creative Director, The Lifestyle Group, Hyatt. “Midtown has great attributes, but it was missing an anchor. It’s walkable, it’s connected and it sits right between some of Miami’s most interesting districts. At The Standard Residences, our owners get to fully inhabit The Standard brand while joining a community that will help shape the future of Midtown.”

The Standard Residences, Midtown Miami serves as a cornerstone of the broader evolution for the neighborhood, which includes Rosso Development and Midtown Development’s recently announced Midtown Park—a transformative five-acre, $2 billion mixed-use community with luxury retail, dining, residential, office, and an ULTRA padel club, designed to link Midtown, Wynwood, and the Design District through a new network of public green spaces and pedestrian paseos.

The Standard Residences, Midtown Miami is nearly sold out with limited units remaining. Sales and marketing is exclusively managed by Douglas Elliman Development Marketing.

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.

Snøhetta-Designed Landmark Office and Retail Building Revealed in Miami Design District

A new mixed-use office and retail building designed by Snøhetta, established in Oslo and New York City, is set to rise in the Miami Design District, further advancing the neighborhood’s position as a global destination for luxury, culture and design; developed by Miami Design District Associates in partnership with Raycliff Capital.

A new mixed-use office and retail building designed by Snøhetta, established in Oslo and New York City, is set to rise in the Miami Design District, further advancing the neighborhood’s position as a global destination for luxury, culture and design. Developed by Miami Design District Associates (MDDA) in partnership with Raycliff Capital, the eight-story project will span approximately 120,500 square feet on a 17,000-square-foot site, bringing together retail, workplace and design-forward public experience in a distinctive new architectural form. Construction is expected to begin in August 2026, with completion anticipated in early 2028.

This project comes as the Miami Design District continues its westward expansion, including the forthcoming Miami Design Residences by Fouquet’s designed by Pritzker Prize–winning architect David Chipperfield.

“The Miami Design District has always been about bringing together architecture, culture, and commerce in a way that feels cohesive and forward-looking.” says Miami Design District developer Craig Robins. “This project continues that vision by creating a building that is both functional and expressive, one that engages with light, materiality, and the public realm in a meaningful way.”

“Sweetbird North is a breathtaking leap forward for the Miami Design District. As the premiere workspace within a world-class cultural destination, this forward-thinking development transcends the ordinary and establishes a new benchmark at the intersection of form and function.” says Bippy Siegal, Founding Partner of Raycliff Capital.

Conceived as a new focal point within the district, the building is defined by a series of layered “veiled” volumes that shift between transparency and opacity. A finely calibrated mesh facade wraps the structure, filtering light while revealing glimpses of interior activity and planted terraces.

“Snøhetta is excited to for this opportunity to work with our partners in the Miami Design District to shape a new and distinctive contribution to a neighborhood long recognized for its commitment to design.” says Nathan McRae, Director at Snøhetta.

The design draws on themes of craft, materiality and movement, softening the building’s presence while creating a dynamic interplay between openness and enclosure. Throughout the day, the façade transforms with changing light conditions, giving the structure a luminous, ever-evolving quality.

At street level, approximately 22,500 square feet of retail space will activate the pedestrian experience across the ground and second floors, extending the district’s vibrant energy. Above, more than 92,000 square feet of office space is distributed across levels three through eight, with floor plates designed to accommodate flexible, high-end workplace environments for creative, luxury and cultural industries.

Curved terraces and integrated planting introduce permeability and calm, offering an elevated experience for tenants. Guided by ambitions to create a strong identity, attract cultural engagement and deliver an elevated experiential destination, the project reinforces the Miami Design District’s commitment to architecture as both commerce and culture.

With sales now underway, buyers and admirers of Kahlo alike have an exclusive opportunity to own a truly unique property in one of Miami’s fastest-growing submarkets.

A Canvas for Everyday Living

Frida Kahlo Wynwood Residences presents a wide range of floor plans, accommodating everyone from the budding artist to young professionals placing their roots in the neighborhood. Each fully finished and furnished studio- to three-bedroom suite includes refined finishes by Cotofana Designs, custom ITALKRAFT cabinetry, and premium appliance packages to seamlessly elevate everyday living. Select homes feature generous dens, ideal for creative work or flexible living, as well as private balconies with sweeping views over the vibrant Wynwood streetscape. Select homes also come with deeded office suites for those seeking additional space for their creative or business pursuits.

In addition to these features, the luminous interiors throughout the building are punctuated by moments of visual contrast, creating a sophisticated interplay of light and shadow throughout each residence. Subtle, expressive design details quietly nod to Frida Kahlo’s influence at each turn, balancing her artistic eye with intention, soft curves, and graceful beauty.

Introducing the Future of Home Healthcare

In addition to intentionally appointed homes, Frida Kahlo Wynwood Residences includes a selection of intentionally appointed amenity spaces to ensure residents can live life by expression with ease. Located on the ground floor of the tower, residents will be able to do just that thanks to Baker Health, a New York-based premier concierge primary care and holistic wellness platform making its grand entrance into Florida. Designed as a concierge-style wellness destination, Baker Health’s facility and online platform will provide a comprehensive suite of personalized services that place prevention, accessibility, and comfort at the forefront of care.

Its hospitality-driven model removes traditional barriers to healthcare by seamlessly blending advanced technology with a thoughtful, human-centered approach. From effortless scheduling to 24/7 direct access to physicians, every detail is designed to anticipate residents’ needs and elevate their overall well-being, delivering care that feels both sophisticated and deeply attentive.

As an exclusive benefit, all residents will receive a complimentary Baker Health membership during their first year of occupancy, followed by preferred rates for the duration of their residency. Members enjoy access to primary care, pediatrics, and integrated wellness services under one roof, along with personalized care plans that support long-term physical and mental health.

Spaces Built to Thrive

Beyond the Baker Health facility, residents are treated to numerous amenitized experiences where they can further their wellness journey and engage with their community. These include a luxurious resort-style pool with shaded lounge areas nestled among lush landscaping and an outdoor bar and lounge space, a signature thermal circuit with steam, sauna, and treatment rooms with a cold plunge, and a state-of-the-art fitness studio.

Once wellness goals are met, residents can unwind and enjoy their surroundings at “Diary,” a speakeasy bar inspired by the intimate spirit of Frida Kahlo’s diary, inside the lobby of Frida Kahlo Wynwood Residences. Designed as an homage, not a reproduction, this intimate, layered, and immersive environment will envelope residents and visitors from the moment they step indoors with the raw emotion, bold artistry, and rich symbolism that defined her work. There will also be a curated collection of custom art installations reflecting and paying homage to Wynwood’s artistic heritage.

Where Creativity Lies
