Terra Launches Leasing For The Arquitectonica-Designed 'The Offices At THE WELL' in Miami's Bay Harbor Islands

One of Miami’s most in-demand neighborhoods is getting a welcomed dose of modern office space. The Offices at THE WELL is part of a new mixed-use development set to rise in Miami’s exclusive Bay Harbor Islands neighborhood, becoming the first high-end office building to launch in the community in decades. Developed by Miami-based Terra, THE WELL Bay Harbor Islands development will include 98,420 square feet of class AA office space, 54 luxury residences, 11,000 square feet dedicated to an integrated wellness experience operated by New York-based wellness company, THE WELL, and a 6,500 square foot signature food and beverage outlet, complete with an expansive rooftop with amenities, garage parking and an elevated plaza. Construction is scheduled to begin in Q1 2023, with completion anticipated in late 2024.

Located at 1177 Kane Concourse, The Offices at THE WELL Bay Harbor Islands will meet growing demand for high-end boutique office space as residents and companies continue to gravitate to South Florida, while reinvigorating Bay Harbor’s iconic Kane Concourse main thoroughfare.

THE WELL New York opened in 2019 as a luxury health and wellness destination that offers clients a range of holistic healthcare services – from Eastern healing practices and Western medicine – including fitness classes, yoga and meditation, acupuncture, sound therapy, spa treatments, and access to the top practitioners in functional medicine and beyond. Since its New York City launch, the brand has expanded with additional locations in Connecticut with THE WELL at Mayflower Inn, and Costa Rica with THE WELL at Hacienda AltaGracia. THE WELL Bay Harbor Islands will become the company’s first Florida location.

“THE WELL Bay Harbor Islands will be a premier address for working, living and wellness just as Miami enjoys a surge of new residents and businesses,” said David Martin, CEO of Terra. “The Offices at THE WELL will be an ideal option for companies looking to incorporate wellness into the workplace, with tenants being able to access all of the exclusive benefits of THE WELL’s curated programming and wellness center.”

Designed by Arquitectonica, with interiors by Meyer Davis, the Offices at THE WELL will reimagine the traditional office lobby into a programmed social space for tenants featuring food and beverage service, unique gathering spaces, and the ability to book THE WELL micro treatments. The development will include four floors of office space complemented by a grand lobby and a rooftop amenity deck, with on-site amenities such as a social lobby and café with comfortable lounge areas, where coffees, juices, and culinary treats can be enjoyed and ordered via text for quick, convenient service. For an outdoor work experience, tenants will have access to greenhouse-style work pods as well as a rooftop level with outdoor meeting areas and community gardens. Office users will also benefit from additional outdoor experiences at an elevated landscaped Plaza, a controlled access parking garage, office valet, and state-of-the-art security.

Office tenants will receive a discounted membership to The Club at THE WELL Bay Harbor Islands, which will include a state-of-the-art fitness and wellness center, as well as full-service concierge services from THE WELL Team, dedicated private outdoor and indoor classes, access to annual health coaching sessions to guide tenants in creating individualized wellness plans, preferred pricing on treatments and services, and exclusive benefits across THE WELL locations globally.

Terra has enlisted a best-in-class team to represent The Offices at THE WELL Bay Harbor Islands, with the Blanca Commercial Real Estate team of Tere Blanca, Danet Linares, Christina Jolley, and Nicole Kaiser leasing the building’s office space.

“Today’s office users are placing emphasis on planning and building custom-designed space in areas that are walkable, accessible to shopping and housing, and which offer on-site outdoor recreation. The Offices at THE WELL Bay Harbor Islands checks all of these boxes – and more,” explains Tere Blanca, CEO of Blanca Commercial Real Estate. “The Offices at THE WELL’s superior technology systems, sustainability initiatives, private rooftop space, and exclusive on-site access to THE WELL and its network of health and wellness destinations globally are appealing to firms looking to establish their presence in one of Miami’s most sought-after neighborhoods.”

Bay Harbor Islands is an exclusive community made up of two islands connected by the Kane Concourse/Broad Causeway bridge, which also leads to Bal Harbour, Surfside and Miami. Other nearby neighborhoods of interest include Indian Creek and Sunny Isles on the Atlantic side, and Sans Souci and Miami Shores to the west. Bay Harbor Islands has its own elementary school, the Ruth K. Broad Bay Harbor K-8 Center, which is consistently rated among the top public schools in the county, along with three neighborhood parks, a tot-lot playground, outdoor fitness space, public tennis courts, a community center, and an assortment of independent shops, galleries, bistros, and professional offices.

Robert Rivani's Black Lion To Bring Philippe by Philippe Chow To One Ocean In Miami Beach's South of Fifth

New York-based restaurant Philippe by Philippe Chow has signed a 15 year lease to occupy the coveted restaurant space at One Ocean South Beach which was acquired by Robert Rivani’s Black Lion Investment Group in November 2022. With plans to open the flagship outpost in Q2 2024, Abraham Merchant and Richard Cohn are bringing the brand's legacy of sophisticated Beijing-inspired dining to Black Lion’s entire ground floor space at One Ocean in the heart of the South of Fifth neighborhood.

“Landing a legendary restaurant brand with an incredible following is in step with Black Lion’s vision to curate an epicenter for elevated dining and nightlife experiences,” said Robert Rivani. “Philippe by Philippe Chow will deliver a culinary cornerstone unique to the neighborhood and is the perfect fit for its future.”

Philippe by Philippe Chow will occupy 13,500+ square-feet on the corner of South Pointe and Ocean Drive. Attached to multi-million dollar residential condos, the space interiors span 10,000-square-feet with 3,500-square-feet of exteriors. An iconic restaurant for almost two decades, Philippe Chow’s first, and now flagship, location opened in Uptown Manhattan in 2005. Since then, the restaurant remained an undisputed favorite among New York City’s power crowd—including athletes, musicians and film stars—who crave Chef Chow’s interpretation on traditional Chinese cuisine.

Known for his modern, flavorful, and theatrical style, Chef Philippe Chow—the brand’s visionary and namesake—is world-renowned for his lavish, Beijing-style dishes and pioneered the way for fine-dining Chinese cuisine in the U.S.

“The expansion of Philippe Chow to such an iconic location in this taste-making gateway city is a key milestone for the brand both here in the United States and overseas,” says Abraham Merchant, president and CEO of Philippe Chow.

This will be Philippe by Philippe Chow’s southern flagship in the United States, following its Washington DC Wharf outpost opening in April of 2023, along with a downtown Nashville location targeted for a 2024 Q1 opening. In addition to the US expansion, the Middle East expansion continues, in addition to a multi-unit agreement in KSA, a new agreement in Kuwait City has been signed, and discussions are proceeding in Egypt and Dubai.

With nearly two decades of storied history, the Chinese eatery is a carefully crafted offering where substance drives notoriety. Meticulously designed signature dishes are infused with the flavor of Chow’s upbringing and made with the freshest ingredients, including the legendary Peking Duck, carved tableside for an unparalleled experience.

Black Lion was represented by Fabio Faerman and Sebastian Faerman with FA Commercial, while Philippe Chow was represented by Jeremy Modest and Ryan Tucker of RIPCO Real Estate.

“We were thrilled to work with Phillipe Chow to support the company’s expansion to South Florida. The Miami market continues to showcase strength and remains an attractive location for world class operators,” said Jeremy Modest, Executive Managing Director at RIPCO Real Estate. Our goal at RIPCO Florida is to help guide the best tenants New York City has to offer down to Florida by focusing on finding excellent locations and the right Landlord’s to partner with which was demonstrated in our work with Philippe Chow.

Specializing in ownership of flagship restaurant properties, Rivani’s vision for Black Lion’s transformative “Restaurant Row” along South Pointe Drive is now complete, with Philippe by Philippe Chow anchoring One Ocean South Beach, Catch Miami Beach opening at the Continuum high-rise this fall, and Marea Condominium’s multi-restaurant space reaching 100% occupancy with Kosushi Miami, a Brazilian-based Michelin Star restaurant; RED, a locals-favorite steakhouse; and a soon-to-be-announced, world-renowned tenant.

Since 2022, Black Lion has secured over $100 million in acquisitions across South Florida with a rapidly expanding portfolio of restaurant/hospitality properties from Miami Beach to Wynwood, Brickell and Downtown – including the space for Gekko by David Grutman x Bad Bunny; Amara at Paraiso with chef Michael Schwartz; Wynwood Jungle with a newly opened Fable rooftop restaurant; the ground floor of Zaha Hadid’s iconic One Thousand Museum; and Delilah at Brickell Bay boardwalk.

Apocalypse Manufacturing And SoFlo Customs Acquires Pompano Beach Manufacturing Facility for $10.7 Million

South Florida-based Apocalypse Manufacturing and South Florida Custom Jeeps (SoFlo Customs), known for their one-of-a-kind custom-made jeeps led by founder Joseph Ghattas, has closed on a $10.7 million acquisition of a new manufacturing facility to build and fabricate custom trucks. The 41,520-square-foot state-of-the-art facility was developed in late 2022 and is located at 2151 Hammondville Road in Pompano Beach, Florida. As a result of the off-market transaction, the new warehouse property will be used by the buyer to build and fabricate every Soflo Custom and Apocalypse 6x6 truck which will be sold off-site.

The purchase represents the expansion of the companies’ manufacturing facility from a 18,000-square-foot location in Fort Lauderdale to more than double the space at the new site in Pompano Beach. In addition to the physical expansion, the auto company plans to add approximately 35 skilled workers.

“The Hammondville Road location is perfect, as it is a brand-new facility with 16 grade-level doors and situated within a half-mile from Florida’s Turnpike and less than one mile from Interstate 95 offering convenient tri-county access,” said Viscount. “A spec building developed as an investment and marketed to rent the property’s design with a fairly narrow truck court limited the pool of potential prospects looking for industrial space but was ideal for my client, especially in a market where industrial space is scarce.”

South Florida Custom Jeeps was represented by Avison Young Principal Tom Viscount in the transaction. CBRE’s Tom O’Loughlin and Larry Genet represented the seller 1501 N Powerline LLC in the transaction.

“To move forward with the transaction, we had to work with the City of Pompano Beach to get the use of the facility approved,” explained Viscount. “We met with the city commissioners, zoning committee, and the mayor, all of whom were great to work with and unanimously agreed to the requested light manufacturing use of the building.”

SoFlo Customs has upgraded, customized and built from scratch over 3,000 Jeeps which they are famous for building with lift kits, big wheels, eye-grabbing rims and custom tailor-made leather interiors. The vehicles are sold throughout the country and internationally, with many designs exceeding hundreds of thousands of dollars. The high demand for the Apocalypse truck, which have waiting lists that consist of celebrities, athletes, and other high-profile buyers, led to the company’s search for a newer, larger facility that could accommodate the workflow. The trucks have been featured on Jay Leno’s Garage and in MotorTrend. SoFlo Customs has four stores and approximately 40 employees.

Quest’s lease coincides with a $4 million renovation of the building’s lobby and common areas, and the addition of a ground-floor, soon-to-be-announced destination restaurant on the building’s ground floor, scheduled to open this summer.

Lance Benson of Newmark represented Quest, Thad Adams, Maricarmen Cabrera and Rafael del Rosal represented Alhambra Towers.

After much anticipation, Giselle Miami, the new restaurant concept from E11EVEN and The Restaurant People, will open its doors on February 3, 2023 in the heart of Downtown’s Arts and Entertainment District. Situated on the rooftop of E11EVEN Miami, Giselle will serve as a lively addition to the local culinary scene merging Asian, Mediterranean & French-inspired cuisine, elevated cocktail programming, and exquisite design with supreme hospitality-driven service. Boasting mystique and an undeniable sense of allure, the rooftop restaurant concept will transport guests on a journey into the world behind the eyes of Giselle.

“We are thrilled to finally be opening the doors to Giselle,” said Dennis DeGori, Creator and Co-Founder of E11EVEN Miami. “Between the cuisine, beverages, and ambiance guests will indulge in, coupled with the one-of-a-kind five-star hospitality experience that we and The Restaurant People are known for, Giselle Miami is ready to welcome all!”

Executive Chef Gustavo Zuluaga brings years of experience to the anticipated concept and has designed a menu packed with unexpected flavors and refined Asian, Mediterranean & French influences. Guests can look forward to fresh fare enriched with Giselle’s signature added flair:

• At ‘First Glance,’ you’ll experience Bluefin Tuna Truffle Cones (Seasonal Truffles, Wasabi Creme Fraiche, 24K Golf Leaf), Hamachi Crudo (Duo of Coconut Sauces, Agrumato Lemon Olive Oil, Puffed Amaranth), Truffle Toast(Seasonal Truffles, Raclette, Cremini Duxelles); and Kurobuta Pork Ribs (Yakiniku Glaze, Togarashi, Scallions), etc..

• See her ‘Seaduction’ with the Chilean Sea Bass (Miso Japanese Eggplant, Baby Bok Choy, Tarragon), Mediterranean Branzino (Fennel Confit, Garlic Broccolini, Lemon Chervil Nage), and Flaming Lobster Thermidor (2lb Maine Lobster, Cognac & Dijon Mustard Sauce, Crispy Shitakes), among other options.

• Reach your ‘Desire’ with mouthwatering meats such as an 8oz Filet Mignon(Piquillo Peppers, Pearl Onions, and a Choice of Sauce) and Free-Range Peking Chicken (Bao Buns, Hoisin, Leeks, and Radishes).

• Experience pure ‘Indulgence’ with the Japanese A5 (Snow Aged A5 Wagyu, Sushi Rice, Shiso Leaves, Truffle Ponzu), and Flaming Australian Wagyu Tomahawk (Pomme Puree, Wild Mushrooms, Sauce Selection).

• Treat yourselves to ‘‘The Finer Things’ including Champagne & Caviar (Dom Perignon Vintage Luminous, 4oz Siberian 5-Star & Accompaniments), or a Seafood Tower (Maine Lobster, Stone Crab, Oysters, Shrimp).

• Or perhaps, providing the most ‘‘Temptation’ is the impeccable Chef’s Selection 6-course tasting experience.

• But, don’t forget to satisfy your ‘Pleasures’ with the Giselle’s Pearls (Gold and Silver Pearls, 6 Leches Sponge Cake, Crème Chantilly) or the Flambé Roquefort Tart (Savory Cheese Tart, Grand Marnier, Cabernet Poached Petite Pears).

Giselle will lure guests in with an indulgent collection of skillfully-crafted cocktails and an extensive list of high-end wines and spirits. Her curated cocktail program is centered around names and flavor profiles that provoke thoughts of memorable adventures and nights out on the town. The refreshing ‘Head Over Heels’ cocktail is a mix of E11EVEN Vodka, Sparkling Rosé, Raspberry, Lemongrass & Citrus served in a glass stiletto and designed to be shared, while the French Kiss is made with Sipsmith London Dry Gin, Champagne, Lemon, Maraschino Cherry.

“We couldn’t be more proud and excited to welcome guests to Giselle,” said Tim Petrillo, CEO & Co-Founder of The Restaurant People. “In addition to the elevated food and drink offerings that Giselle will offer, we are super excited to introduce Giselle to Miami and be part of the E11EVEN family which has been the gold standard of the Miami nightlife for close to a decade.”

Giselle is sophisticated yet eclectic, seductively captivating, edgy, and outright extravagant on every level, from her presentation to the aura of mystery she evokes in each guest that walks through her doors. The team tapped international award-winning South Africa-based interior architect Tristan Du Plessis to completely transform the space with high-style design, modern elegance, and custom-made decor elements from all around the world, including Italy, Netherlands, Paris, London, Greece, New York, South Africa, and Miami.

Upon arrival, guests will take a private elevator up to the main entrance of the rooftop restaurant, where they will be invited to step into the sultry fantasy world of Giselle via a luminous mosaic-tiled tunnel that whimsically leads into Giselle’s foyer. A custom-built retractable roof spans the entirety of the indoor-outdoor restaurant, allowing for a truly dynamic dining experience. The dazzling, panoramic setting was designed with an unparalleled level of artistry that breathes life into each of the exceptionally detailed areas that make up Giselle Miami.

Giselle’s 14-seat marble-adorned Bar presents an idyllic space for guests to sip and savor her signature libations. Offering guests an added multimedia art experience, an animated digital art display cases the wall behind the Bar and showcases the work of Miami-based filmmaker and producer Frank Kelly. Kelly was tapped to produce a custom short film series for the space that reveals snippets of Giselle’s persona with a seductive cinematic eye.

An intimate Lounge/Terrace area extends from the Bar, offering comfortable lounge seating and elegant black marble embellished dining tables set against Miami's evening skyline. Separating this space from the central dining area within the venue, a double-sided mirrored sign spells out, in neon fluorescence, the spoken words of Giselle: “I’ll be here, if by chance, you’ll be here too.”

Giselle’s Central Dining area houses a thoughtful curation of table settings to accommodate varied restaurant-goers party sizes – from cozy tables for two all the way up to larger seatings for ten. A partially enclosed space, bordered by lush greenery and marble scaffolding, boasts three large-party custom-built round tables. Refined with sleek wood paneling and delicately hand-carved trimmings, each table setting within this area can comfortably seat up to 10 guests.

The must-see crown jewel within Giselle’s artfully devised layout leads us to the concept’s utterly awe-striking Dream Room. This high-design main dining room space is engulfed with impossibly oversized French lace and elaborate baroque detailing, whereas the walls and ceilings are ornamented in 3D wood-carved architectural detailings. At the heart of the Dream Room, an open interactive kitchen offers an exclusive experiential element for guests. Giselle’s spectacular settings each offer their own unique personality and idyllic backdrops for bespoke private dining experiences and events.

Giselle is located at 15 NE 11 St., Miami, FL 33132. Opening hours of operation are Wednesday - Sunday, from 6:00pm until late.
