The iconic building, which is located at 1675 Meridian Ave., was developed in 1953 and is one of the oldest retail buildings in Miami Beach. The building spans 102,009 SF on a 1.15 acre lot.

Ken Griffin Revealed As Buyer Behind The Record Breaking $106 Million Deal For Adrienne Arsht's Bayfront Estate

When a residential sale crossed the $100 million threshold for the first time in Miami-Dade County history in August as The Arsht Estate sold for $106,875,000, many wondered who the mystery buyer was. It has been revealed that multi-billionaire hedge fund magnate Ken Griffin, who founded and recently moved Citadel Securities from Chicago to Miami, was the buyer in the mega-transaction for the four-acre waterfront compound which was formerly owned by Adrienne Arsht. Ashley Cusack with Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices EWM Realty represented Arsht and Jill Hertzberg of The Jills Zeder Group with Coldwell Banker represented the undisclosed buyer later revealed to be Griffin.

Neighbored by the historic Vizcaya Museum, The Arsht Estate encompasses more than 25,000 square feet of exquisitely detailed structures. Overlooking Biscayne Bay from atop one of Miami’s highest bayfront elevations, it features more than 400 feet of water frontage, as well as panoramic views of Key Biscayne and downtown Miami. Throughout the years, the property -- often referred to as South Florida’s “embassy” -- has been the backdrop for numerous important events and gatherings involving international luminaries, including U.S. presidents, ambassadors, and world leaders. The Arsht Estate features two connected estates, a primary residence, known as Indian Spring, which was built by Arsht in 1999 and designed by Jose A. Gelabert-Navia; as well as Villa Serena, which was built in 1913 by former U.S. Secretary of State and three-time U.S. presidential candidate William Jennings Bryan and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

After announcing earlier this year that both Citadel and Citadel securities will move to Miami from Chicago, Griffin has been on a buying and expansion spree. Citadel signed a lease for 95,000 SF at OKO Group’s 830 Brickell office tower. At roughly the same time, through an entity Griffin acquired the adjacent 1250 Brickell Bay Drive and 1260 Brickell Bay Drive for $20 million, the lots total roughly 6,655 SF. The lots are adjacent to 1221 Brickell Avenue, which an entity tied to Citadel reportedly acquired in June 2022 for $286.5 million.

The assemblage of properties spanning from 1221 Brickell Avenue to 1250-1260 Brickell Bay Drive is across the street from 1201 Brickell Bay Drive, which Citadel was revealed as the buyer of after Tibor Hollo’s Florida East Coast Realty sold the 2.5 acre supertall development lot in a $363 million mega-deal also in April 2022. The price equated to $145 million per acre, $3,340 PSF dirt value. Citadel is planning to develop the property with the Chicago-based developer Sterling Bay.

Ken Griffin’s net-worth is estimated to be about $31 billion and he has been one of the largest luxury property buyers in the world over the past several years. Also in Miami, Griffin has spent years and $170 million acquiring a Star Island assemblage. He made a splash when he acquired 8 Star Island Drive, a teardown built in 1993 on 1.8-acres, for $75 million. The sale set record for single-family home sales in Miami-Dade County at the time, a record Griffin is no stranger breaking. Griffin has also acquired the adjacent 10 Star Island for $25 million and 11 and 12 Star Island Drive in an off-market deal for roughly $37 million and 13 Star Island for $32.5 million. The acquisitions total $170 million.

In 2015 Griffin purchased two penthouses in Faena House on Miami Beach for a record at the time $60 million, he later sold them off for a combined $46 million. In 2019 Griffin purchased a $240 million unit at 220 Central Park South in Manhattan, NYC, in a deal that broke the record for the most expensive residential transaction ever recorded in the U.S. In Palm Beach Griffin has assembled $350 million of land at Blossom Way and South Ocean Blvd. where he began buying in 2012.

The St. Regis Residences, Miami 'Wow' With Curated Lifestyle Amenities

Private marinas, 24/7 concierges, unmatched waterfront views, and in-unit elevators – these are just some of the lifestyle offerings today’s evermore demanding buyers expect when shopping for a luxury condominium in South Florida. To stand out amongst increasingly over-the-top high-rises, developers of branded residential projects across booming Miami are going on the offensive, offering curated amenities that exceed even the loftiest expectations. 

“It’s all about surprising buyers – offering something they never knew they couldn’t live without,” says Jon Paul Perez, President of development powerhouse Related Group. “We’re always pushing the bar higher and working to outdo ourselves. Take golf simulators and VR amenities, for example. Not too long ago, these were an extra luxury reserved only for our most high-end projects. Now, these types of options are simply expected.”

Branded residential concepts, like Related’s and Integra Investment’s St. Regis Residences, Miami, are setting the pace for a new wave of condominiums vying for the spotlight in sunny South Florida. By partnering with beloved brands, Miami developers can curate their projects to match the passions of buyers and deliver entire turnkey lifestyles with exceptional, five-star service. Simply using a brand name isn’t quite enough, however. 

“We invested considerable time and resources into ensuring our amenities, signature butler services, and rituals live up to the rich history of the St. Regis name,” says Nelson Stabile, principal and co-founder of Integra and co-developer of The St. Regis Residences, Miami. “Many of our buyers are loyal to the St. Regis brand and want to immerse themselves in the iconic brand full-time. As such, every lifestyle feature and service offering in The Residences is hand-curated to exude that unique St. Regis spirit.”

Located in the heart of the Brickell neighborhood and situated on an exclusive waterfront site, while offering glimmering views of Biscayne Bay, The Residences come brimming with lifestyle touches, including over 60,000-square-feet of hand-selected amenities. Among the many standouts is the elevated waterfront pool deck, designed to evoke the prestigious roots of the St. Regis brand. The expansive terrace features a saltwater swimming pool and poolside cabanas overlooking turquoise waters, as well as a poolside café and bar, a whirlpool, and luscious gardens with ample seating for residents to admire the greenery – all complemented by breathtaking bay views and serene sounds of the water.

The property’s state-of-the-art fitness center includes the latest in cardio, strength training, yoga and meditation equipment curated by The Wright Fit. The on-site spa continues the dreamy experience, and showcases the resort-inspired lifestyle, with comprehensive facilities – including an indoor lap pool, cold plunge pool, salt spa room, dual saunas, and state-of-the-art treatment rooms. 

Additional highlights include a St. Regis signature tearoom, where residents can enjoy the brand’s historic afternoon tea service, a fine-dining restaurant helmed by James Beard Award-winning Chef Fabio Trabocchi, a private marina, programmable golf simulator, and a 31st-floor sky lounge with 360-degree views of the Magic City.

Owners will also enjoy a world-class portfolio of services, including a 24-hour St. Regis-trained butler dedicated to fulfilling owners’ personal requests. Whether arranging personal appointments, coordinating travel and transit, or hosting an event in one of the signature St. Regis spaces, like the tearoom or cognac room, the aim is to keep residents at ease. 

And while developers of The Residences place a heavy emphasis on amenities, the 342 residences were no afterthoughts. The units come in varied floor plans, including penthouses and sky villas, and range from one to seven bedrooms. The open-concept layouts come standard with custom European marble flooring, Wolf appliances, custom Italian cabinetry, Dornbracht fixtures, and full-height wine refrigerators. Units start at $1.5 million.

Pulso Capital Acquires Stellar At Palm Aire Build-For-Rent Townhome Community For $21.5 Million

Pulso Capital has acquired Stellar at Palm Aire, a new build-for-rent community consisting of 39 townhomes located in the center of the Palm Aire Country Club in Pompano Beach, Fl., for $21.5 million, or $551,282 per unit. The sale and financing were overseen by Berkadia. Senior Managing Directors Roberto Pesant and Jaret Turkell, along with Director Yoav Yuhjtman, Associate Director Omar Morales and Senior Analyst Jose Mota of Berkadia Miami, marketed the property on behalf of Stellar Communities.

Senior Managing Director Mitch Sinberg, along with Managing Directors Matt Robbins, Scott Wadler and Brad Williamson, and Senior Analyst Michael Basinski of Berkadia Miami arranged the debt on behalf of the buyer. Steeprock provided the $14 million, fixed-rate, five-year loan at a 65% LTV, with full term interest only.

“In a region where for-sale housing has seen prices increase by up to 50% in some cases, Stellar at Palm Aire provides residents with a spacious, new-construction high-end property with private outdoor areas and luxurious finishes at a rent that is attainable,” said Pesant.

“We have a strong belief in the dynamics of the South Florida Market and are actively looking for the right opportunities for our group,” said Maor Benami, co-founder of Pulso Capital Group. “This unique, Class A Built-for-Rent product, coupled with our management capabilities, makes Stellar at Palm Aire a perfect fit for us as we continue to grow our portfolio.”

Effective rent in South Florida rose 25.2% year over year, according to Berkadia Research – driven by an influx of new residents and corporate migrations over the last 12 months.

Located halfway between Fort Lauderdale and Boca Raton in a suburban setting west of I-95, Stellar at Palm Aire is the first new construction in the Palm Aire Golf Course community in over 10 years. There are two-bedroom (1,475 square feet), three-bedroom (1,744) and four-bedroom floor plans (1,825 to 1,961) with rents ranging from $3550 a month to $4,350. Townhomes have attached garages. Its location in a peaceful community, surrounded by greenery, golf course views, walking, running & biking trails allows residents to enjoy the calm of suburban living while in close proximity to two of Florida’s main employment hubs. It is just 10 minutes from I-95, five minutes from the Florida Turnpike, and 15-20 minutes from both Downtown Fort Lauderdale and downtown Boca Raton.

Established in 2009, Stellar Communities is a full- service real estate development company with a progressive focus on eco-construction initiatives for residential communities. Since its inception, Stellar has helped over 2,500 families move into the next stage of their lives with a new home. With a deep-rooted commitment to quality and value, Stellar Communities builds inspiring homes and communities with unmatched efficiencies in some of the most highly sought-after coastal, urban, and suburban locations across South Florida.
