Fortune International Group, one of South Florida’s preeminent residential real estate development, sales and marketing leaders for nearly 40 years, in partnership with Blue Road, a Florida-based integrated developer of hospitality, residential, commercial, and mixed-use projects, has announced the sales launch for Nexo Residences. The newest condominium development in North Miami Beach introduces short-term rental capability with full flexibility and central connectivity.

The property, featuring 254 residences, is one of the first condo projects with short-term rental capability in the rapidly growing city of North Miami Beach, adding to the area’s economic growth currently underway. Located at 13899 Biscayne Boulevard, it presents move-in-ready residences with full home-sharing capabilities without restrictions, coupled with resort-style amenities.

Nexo Residences’ units will be delivered turnkey and are priced from the $400,000s, studios to four-bedroom townhomes range from about 525 to 2,190 interior square feet. Each homeowner has the choice to rent his/her residence for short-, seasonal or long-term durations without listing limitations, making it a coveted property type for investors, while enjoying the option to utilize it at their own discretion or for personal leisure. Sales and marketing are exclusively overseen by Fortune Development Sales.

“Nexo Residences will serve as the premier short-term rental offering in North Miami Beach, an area that has been underserved in hotel and rental product; most projects of this kind concentrate in Downtown Miami and Brickell,” said Edgardo Defortuna, president and CEO of Fortune International Group. “This booming submarket continues to draw residents and visitors for its nearby office parks, universities, shops, and dining. We envisioned the project as a complement to its surroundings, while activating the property with thoughtful features and technology that speak to the future of real estate.”

“Understanding the consumer demand to be at the nexus of everything, we chose a location that allows residents to take advantage of all the experiential offerings in the neighborhood, with the added benefit and comfort of hotel amenities and services,” added Jorge Savloff, CEO of Blue Road.

Each turnkey residence is fully finished with floor-to-ceiling windows, porcelain flooring, built-in bedroom closets, dedicated lockable owners’ closets, and expansive balconies with glass railing. European-style kitchens are outfitted with quartz countertops and matte black fixtures for a modern look.

Enhanced digital features, such as smart key access, a self-service package system, and Wi-Fi throughout the common areas, provide ease for owners and guests. Additional tech-driven management systems to further elevate the transient experience will also be introduced in the future.

Blending the necessities of remote work life with inspiration from South Florida as a year-round vacation destination, Nexo Residences’ suite of amenities includes a two-story arrival lobby and lounge, which will be an impressive visual experience upon entry to the building. A two-story tech hub with a café, coworking spaces, and a business center make work a breeze, while entertainment offerings include an outdoor children’s playground, multi-purpose clubroom and private event area.

Health enthusiasts can relish the indoor/outdoor fitness center with a yoga studio and virtual trainer. To enjoy Miami’s sunshine, visit the luxury pool deck complete with a resort-inspired pool and two spa pools with loungers, or meet friends in the summer kitchen, followed by stargazing on the rooftop observatory deck. Additionally, residents can rest assured that their four-legged friends are welcome in the pet-friendly building.

The project is designed by Frankel Benayoun Architects Inc, with consultation from internationally-renowned architect Carlos Ott. Its common areas, residence interiors, and landscaping are curated by Urban Robot, the local, full-service design collective behind some of the city’s leading hotels and retail concepts, including W Hotel South Beach, the Gucci Flagship in Miami’s Design District, and Oasis Wynwood.

Nexo Residences is in proximity to a plethora of business and leisure offerings in Miami, Bal Harbour, Aventura, North Bay Village, Sunny Isles, Hollywood Beach, and beyond. The property is ideally set along the main thoroughfare of Biscayne Boulevard, minutes from the Intracoastal, and is nearly equidistant to both Miami International Airport and Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport. Nexo Residences is also nearby Bal Harbour Shops and Aventura Mall, which recently underwent a multi-million-dollar expansion, and popular outdoor recreational areas and green spaces, like Oleta River State Park and Haulover Park.

B&B Italia Is Distilling The best of Italian Living in Miami’s Downtown

Nobody does luxury quite like Italy. From unmatched gastronomy, to revered art and design, the Italian peninsula offers a sense of style unlike anywhere else in the world. This focus on form and beauty has long defined Italian design, whether it be in automobiles, fashion, interior design or home furnishings. Italian design always stands out, with countless attempts to emulate the Mediterranean region’s understated, yet exquisitely refined aesthetic.

Nobody does luxury quite like Italy. From unmatched gastronomy, to revered art and design, the Italian peninsula offers a sense of style unlike anywhere else in the world. 

This focus on form and beauty has long defined Italian design, whether it be in automobiles, fashion, interior design or home furnishings. Italian design always stands out, with countless attempts to emulate the Mediterranean region’s understated, yet exquisitely refined aesthetic. 

Based in Novedarte, Italy, B&B Italia is not content retreading previously explored ideas, however. Working with visionaries, like Artistic Director, Piero Lissoni, the world-renowned design house is working to reimagine the quintessential Italian ‘look’ for a new generation of connoisseurs. 

The approach has proven to be highly successful, with robust growth and an impressive stable of A-list collaborators, including iconic brands like Rolex, Piaget, Rolls Royce, Fendi, Apple and many more. 

B&B Italia is now venturing into the luxury real estate space, partnering with development powerhouses Related Group and Alta Developers, to deliver their first-ever residential property. 

Casa Bella Residences by B&B Italia is an exclusive luxury condominium located in the heart of Miami’s downtown neighborhood, just steps from the sparkling waters of Biscayne Bay. With architecture by Arquitectonica and interiors hand-curated by Piero Lissoni and the B&B Italia team, every aspect of the 55-story tower is envisioned as an oasis, offering a refined Miami aesthetic rooted in contemporary Italian design. 

We recently sat down with Francesco Farina, Chief Executive Officer for B&B Italia’s US operations to learn more about Casa Bella Residences by B&B Italia.

Why is B&B Italia venturing into branded real estate? What kind of draw does this hold for you and your team?

Casa Bella Residences by B&B Italia is supposed to distill the very best of Italian design. What does that mean to you? 

B&B Italia continues to stand out for both its representation of contemporary culture as well as its research and innovation. There is a fruitful partnership that we have between the company’s Research and Development Center, a workshop for excellent ideas, and the best international design professionals outstanding talent, which has resulted in the creation of iconic products that have defined our brand.

This is a unique project for B&B Italia. Your team is handling furnishings while Piero Lissoni handles interior designs. Does this type of approach give your team greater creative freedom? 

This sort of approach gives us the ability to really work with Piero in a unique way outside of his role as Artistic Director for B&B Italia. Piero has played a key role across many other Related projects, which gives us a leg up of sorts. He helps us anticipate challenges unique to the development world and helps us deliver an even higher quality product. 

We cannot wait to show the world what we’ve been working on! 

B&B Italia is known around the world for its home furnishings. How are you translating that brand ethos into a full residential experience?

Eyzenberg & Co. Structures $73.35 Million Construction Loan For Downtown St. Petersburg Condo Development

Eyzenberg & Company has arranged a stretch-senior construction loan to finance the development of Reflections Condominiums, a 17-story condominium tower on Mirror Lake in St. Petersburg, Florida. The New York-headquartered commercial real estate investment banking firm was retained in 2021 as the exclusive financial advisor for the development of the 326,468 SF building.

Eyzenberg & Company has arranged a stretch-senior construction loan to finance the development of Reflections Condominiums, a 17-story condominium tower on Mirror Lake in St. Petersburg, Florida. The New York-headquartered commercial real estate investment banking firm was retained in 2021 as the exclusive financial advisor for the development of the 326,468 square foot building.

Situated at the Edge District of St Petersburg, Reflections is surrounded by new restaurants, boutique shopping, as well as award winning galleries and museums. With nationwide interest of homebuyers flowing into the greater Tampa and St. Petersburg markets of Florida, the developer was well positioned to deliver a product in extremely high demand. In the months leading up to loan closing the developer pre-sold over 55% of the building’s available units.

“Our firm and team members have a long history of representing developers in the South Florida community, one of the many reasons we established a local office in Miami in 2019” Said David Eyzenberg, President of Eyzenberg & Company.

The tower features open floor plan options ranging from 1,168 to nearly 2,285 square feet of interior living space. Reflections’ residents are provided private access to the tower’s 12,000 square foot rooftop featuring a glass façade, air-conditioned fitness center and social club, a tropical pool and spa terrace, outdoor kitchen and wet bar, and unparalleled panoramic views of Mirror Lake, Downtown St. Petersburg, and Tampa Bay.

The Eyzenberg deal team included Robert Ginsberg, Aaron Stelzer, Alex Anderson and Elena Burgos. After exploring the equity and structured capital markets to fill the existing gap in the capital stack, Eyzenberg arranged a construction loan from a debt fund that provided stretch-senior construction financing that allowed both existing sales deposits as well as future sales deposits to be treated as a source of capital that filled the entire capital stack. “This particular transaction underscores the need for sophisticated structuring capabilities vs introduction services in complicated scenarios” said Robert Ginsberg, managing director of Eyzenberg & Company

With economic headwinds facing the construction industry from inflation, the lingering effects of Covid-19, and geo-political pressures in Europe, Eyzenberg was able to work with both the lender and borrower to bridge cost overruns and a steepening yield curve and shepherd the transaction to a successful close.

The project is anticipated to reach completion and deliver the final units in April of 2024.
