A. Spencer Morris, President of Allen Morris Co. “Paired with a reimagined public greenspace and a lineup of extraordinary local culinary talent, this project reflects our deep commitment to place-marking at the highest level.”

Real estate development and investment firm Naftali Group has secured a combined $465 million in construction loan financing for the development of JEM Private Residences in Downtown Miami. Nuveen Green Capital (NGC), a leader in sustainable commercial real estate financing solutions and an affiliate of Nuveen, provided $235 million in C-PACE financing, while Bank Hapoalim (BHI) supplied an additional $230 million in traditional construction loans.
Located in the heart of Downtown Miami’s urban core within Miami Worldcenter, JEM Private Residences is a 67-story luxury tower designed by Arquitectonica and Rockwell Group, featuring 259 residences beginning on the 43rd floor, including exclusive Sky Villas with Interiors by FENDI Casa that crown the top of the development with the brand’s timeless aesthetic. Its 50th-floor amenity suite offers resort-style living with a 60-foot outdoor pool with a sculpture by Lorenzo Quinn, indoor Sky Lounge, state-of-the-art fitness center, boxing arena, yoga patio, spa suite with steam, salt, and sauna rooms, along with a co-working space and spirits tasting room for refined social experiences.
“Today, we closed the second phase of our construction loan while hundreds of construction workers are working hard on building our remarkable project in the heart of Miami Worldcenter,” said Miki Naftali, Chairman and CEO of Naftali Group. “Our JEM private residences offer quality second to none in one of the only walkable destinations in Miami with world-class retail, museum and cultural institutions, entertainment and incredible dining. It is the center of all major transportation, like the Brightline, Metrorail and the Miami International Airport. With JEM Private Residences, we’re bringing a new level of design, quality and attention to detail that defines our work, creating a building that will stand the test of time in the Miami skyline.”
Alexandra Cooley, CEO and Chief Investment Officer of Nuveen Green Capital, said, "It was an honor to partner with Naftali Group once again for this notable luxury property in downtown Miami. By leveraging C-PACE's low-cost, long-term financing and structuring flexibility, in combination with BHI’s senior construction loan, Naftali was able to finance their project cost-effectively. This record-setting transaction—the largest C-PACE-financed multifamily project to date in Florida—underscores the continued adoption of C-PACE by institutional borrowers to fund their large-scale projects.”
“South Florida remains a key market within BHI’s strategic growth plan, and partnering with developers who bring meaningful, lasting impact to the region is central to our approach,” said Ilana Druyan, Senior Vice President – Team Leader and Head of International Origination – CRE at BHI. “Naftali Group’s presence in Miami is growing, and we’re pleased to support their ongoing efforts to expand compelling inventory throughout the Miami market.”
Construction progress for JEM Private Residences is already underway. The project broke ground in April 2024, just under 6 months after bringing the project to market, which is atypical for the Miami real estate market. That momentum is reflected in the market as well, with sales moving at a strong pace, including the recent $8 million sale of Sky Villa 2 with Interiors by FENDI Casa. This move speaks to Naftali Group’s track record as a developer and underscores its confidence in the continued efforts to bring high-quality residential products to South Florida. The project is now rising past its sixth level and remains on track to be completed in Q4 of 2027.

Drawing influences from the world’s finest resorts and properties, Rivani will reimagine the estate as a South of France-inspired sanctuary blending the timeless elegance of the Mediterranean layered with architectural intimacy and the distinctive character of Miami. The design will incorporate the highest caliber organic materials and finishes, taking cues from the bay and lush outdoors with every element thoughtfully executed to deliver an exceptional living experience.
Dina Goldentayer of Douglas Elliman represented Rivani for the transaction, while Luis Bosch of Venetian International held the listing.
“Originally listed at $32.5 million, Robert acquired this estate at a significant discount, a testament to his ability to identify undervalued properties and unlock their true potential,” said Goldentayer. “The property has it all–scale, pedigree, location, and breathtaking water frontage—all exceedingly rare in Miami’s highly competitive luxury market. With Robert’s visionary approach, it’s destined to become a true legacy estate.”

With over $1 billion in real estate transactions executed independently, the firm’s portfolio includes an iconic roster of projects including a landmark ‘Class X’ luxury office building The RIVANI on Miami Beach, which attracted Playboy Enterprises as a marquee penthouse tenant. The firm is also behind the recent $37 million acquisition of the historic Lincoln Theatre building, acclaimed waterfront destinations including the upcoming GAIA, and the fully leased Wynwood Jungle and 325,000-square-foot regional power shopping center The Gardens in New Jersey.

OKO Group, the international real estate development firm founded by investor and developer Vlad Doronin and The Bastion Collection, a global leader in fine dining and luxury hospitality with a portfolio distinguished by 10 Michelin Stars and 3 Michelin Keys since 2019, have revealed a landmark partnership atop 830 Brickell, Miami’s premier 55-story Class A office tower.
The first building of its kind to be developed in the city for over a decade, 830 Brickell is a fitting home for the collaboration between OKO and Bastion who will bring a distinctive blend of business sophistication and vibrant social energy to Miami’s culinary landscape—filling a necessary niche in the city. The debut concept from the partnership introduces Seia, a contemporary Italian restaurant and private membership club located on the highest two floors of the tower (54th and 55th), complete with an expansive open terrace and panoramic views over Miami’s bustling financial district.
The two intrinsically connected yet distinct spaces, with interiors designed by Zervudachi, Roberts and Macadam London, will launch in 2026, complemented by an exclusive all-day café available to 830 Brickell tenants. Developed by OKO Group and Cain International, the newly delivered contemporary office tower brings a prestigious commercial offering to Miami’s Brickell Financial District – often referred to as the “Wall Street of the South.” The fully-leased building’s roster of best-in-class global tenants includes Microsoft, Citadel, Kirkland & Ellis, Marsh, Sidley Austin, Corient (formerly known as CI Financial), Thoma Bravo, Santander Bank, A-CAP, among others.
A distinguished partner to bring a refined hospitality offering to the area, The Bastion Collection’s stellar reputation in Miami is underscored by two acclaimed restaurants in the Design District: L’Atelier de Joël Robuchon, the city’s sole two-Michelin-starred establishment, and Le Jardinier, honored with one Michelin star.
Speaking about the collaboration, Vlad Doronin, Chairman and CEO of OKO Group, said, "With 830 Brickell, we set out to deliver an international calibre of architecture and lifestyle to the heart of Miami's financial district. Partnering with The Bastion Collection to develop Seia and Seia Club elevates that vision and introduces a new benchmark for culinary and exclusive social experiences in the city. Together, we are creating a destination that reflects Miami's global stature, bringing a new dimension of sophistication and world-class gastronomy to Brickell.’
“We’re proud to partner with premier developer OKO Group on Seia, which we know will become a crown jewel within the iconic 830 Brickell,” said Jamal Daniel, owner of The Bastion Collection. “This project is an extraordinary opportunity to bring our culinary and operational expertise to Miami’s most prestigious address, introducing concepts designed to evolve into institutions that serve Brickell’s corporate clientele by day. By night, Seia will become a destination for those seeking an elevated social experience.”

Dezer Development, in collaboration with Bentley Motors, has completed the mat foundation concrete pour for Bentley Residences Miami, the world’s first and only Bentley-branded residential tower, located at 18401 Collins Avenue in Sunny Isles Beach. Executed in partnership with Coastal Construction, the milestone marks a new record for the largest residential construction pour in the state of Florida as well as the second largest foundation concrete pour in the nation. Taking place over 36 continuous hours, the pour involved 2,100 truckloads and 20,000 cubic yards of concrete, 2,400 tons of reinforcing steel, and 10 concrete pumps. With the foundation for the tower now complete, Bentley Residences is ready to rise to its full height of 716 feet, making it one of the tallest buildings on any US oceanfront. Pricing starts at $5.8 million.
“Setting a record of this scale is an incredible achievement and a defining moment for Bentley Residences,” said Gil Dezer, President of Dezer Development. “This milestone is not only a testament to the strength and precision behind the project but also to the shared vision of creating a landmark that embodies innovation, craftsmanship, and the future of luxury living in Miami.”
Designed by Sieger Suarez Architects in partnership with Bentley Motors, Bentley Residences will feature 216 residences embodying Bentley’s design language. The brand’s iconic signature diamond pattern, exquisite craftsmanship and precision engineering will be integrated throughout its architecture and interiors. As the tower moves steadily toward its 2028 completion, this milestone marks a defining moment in Bentley Residences’ journey from vision to reality.
“The mat foundation pour at Bentley Residences marks a defining milestone for one of South Florida’s most extraordinary developments. As the largest pour of its kind in the region, this achievement reflects the enduring partnership between Dezer Development and Coastal Construction,” said Sean Murphy, Co-President of Coastal Construction. “This is a testament to our project team’s hard work and dedication and we look forward to the next major milestone, as we go vertical!”
Quality craftsmanship is an essential component of Bentley Residences. Spanning from 5,256 to 6,333 square feet, each residence embodies Bentley’s craftsmanship and sense of luxury with expansive indoor-outdoor living spaces, private heated swimming pools, summer kitchens, and sweeping ocean and Intracoastal views. At the heart of the building is the Dezervator, a patented automobile elevator that transports both driver and vehicle directly to a private sky garage, providing unmatched privacy and convenience. Inside, homes feature state-of-the-art Gaggenau appliances, Italian-designed cabinetry, and spa-inspired primary bathrooms with private saunas, behind-mirror televisions, and outdoor showers in select residences. Finishing touches such as chrome accents, textured door handles, and Bentley’s signature diamond patterning complete an environment that captures the brand’s spirit of precision, innovation, and elegance.
The lifestyle experience at Bentley Residences will be enhanced by a 20,000-square-foot suite of resort-style amenities and curated services that mirror Bentley’s dedication to sophistication and comfort. Residents will enjoy exclusive access to a private restaurant helmed by four-time James Beard Award-winning chef Todd English, a whiskey bar, cigar lounge, cinema, spa, oceanfront beauty salon, and fitness center, alongside a lushly landscaped beach club and pool deck with cabanas and food and beverage service.

Inside Alhambra Parc: Where Miami Luxury Meets BLACKLINE’s Sales Technology
In Miami’s pre-construction market, where competition is fierce and buyer expectations are higher than ever, standing out takes more than prime location and beautiful design. It requires a sales experience that is as elevated as the residences themselves. At Alhambra Parc Residences in Coral Gables, that competitive edge comes from BLACKLINE, a platform built to power sales and transform the way buyers connect with new developments.
In Miami’s pre-construction market, where competition is fierce and buyer expectations are higher than ever, standing out takes more than prime location and beautiful design. It requires a sales experience that is as elevated as the residences themselves. At Alhambra Parc Residences in Coral Gables, that competitive edge comes from BLACKLINE, a platform built to power sales and transform the way buyers connect with new developments.
Blending Mediterranean-inspired architecture with modern amenities, Alhambra Parc captures the spirit of Coral Gables. But what sets it apart is not just its design — it is how the development is brought to life inside the sales gallery. Instead of simply using traditional boards and models, buyers are invited to experience the residences through BLACKLINE Realm, an immersive platform that allows them to explore layouts, compare floor plans, and even visualize views with a simple touch.
“BLACKLINE really sets our sales gallery experience apart,” says Anniella Tabraue, Sales Director for Alhambra Parc. “Buyers want more than a brochure. The 3D model allows us to show buyers where units are within the building and they can truly experience their views throughout the different times of day as well as understand the setting of the surrounding area.”
For the sales team, the benefits run even deeper. BLACKLINE is more than a presentation tool — it is the engine that drives every aspect of the sales cycle. Pricing, inventory, and client data are all centralized, ensuring accuracy and saving valuable time. “It keeps everything organized,” Anniella explains. “Everthing is updated in real-time so I know the details I’m showing clients are always current. With BLACKLINE, we’re able to match the sophistication of the product with a sales process that feels just as elevated. It makes a real difference.”
Beyond inventory management, BLACKLINE’s platform streamlines workflows for agents. From generating real-time availability reports to tracking buyer activity, the system equips the team with insights that inform strategy and improve efficiency. Features like digital reservations and automated contract workflows also make the experience seamless for buyers, making the path from interest to purchase smoother than ever.
Clients have also embraced the technology. As Tim Ng, Founder & CEO of BLACKLINE, explains: “What buyers love about BLACKLINE Realm is the ability to explore a home in a way that feels personal. They can walk through different layouts, compare options, and visualize what their life could look like before construction even begins. It brings confidence to a process that can otherwise feel abstract.”
For developers and sales agencies, the takeaway is clear. Success is no longer just about building beautiful residences — it is about creating a sales journey that reflects the lifestyle buyers are investing in.
For buyers exploring a project on BLACKLINE, they can see the spaces in real time, interact with the options, and make decisions with confidence. It’s a transparent and exciting process.
By pairing Alhambra Parc’s timeless design with BLACKLINE’s innovative sales engine, the team has set a new standard for what new development sales in Miami can look like.

Iconic Palm Beach Estate With 250' Of Oceanfront Hits The Market For $185 Million
An iconic property originally commissioned by Joanie and Murray Goodman in 1975 has been listed for $185 million with Illustrated Properties, offering a rare acquisition opportunity in Palm Beach. Representing one of the largest oceanfront parcels to become available, the estate encompasses 2.21 acres and 250 feet of private Atlantic Ocean frontage.
An iconic property originally commissioned by Joanie and Murray Goodman in 1975 has been listed for $185 million with Illustrated Properties, offering a rare acquisition opportunity in Palm Beach. Representing one of the largest oceanfront parcels to become available, the estate encompasses 2.21 acres and 250 feet of private Atlantic Ocean frontage. The sprawling compound at 911 N. Ocean Blvd. was designed by architect Henry Harding and constructed by Rick Black.
“A property like this does not come around often, if at all,” said Marley Overman, daughter of Joanie and Murray Goodman and agent with Illustrated Properties. “My parents recognized the sheer potential of this location when they built here in 1975. This is an extraordinary opportunity for the next owner to acquire a rare piece of land with such vast potential, on the ocean, with the option to subdivide if they wish.”
The property’s primary value lies in its exceptional size and beachfront dominance. In a market known for intense competition for prime real estate, the availability of 2.21 acres with 250 feet of ocean frontage is virtually unparalleled. The property retains historic elements including a preserved Mizner seawall and stairs leading down to the beach along N. Ocean Blvd. The residence features a total of 23,956 square feet across all structures, featuring 12 bedrooms, 16 full bathrooms and 4 half bathrooms.The grounds feature a main house with a pool, a separate pool house, a tennis court and a detached guest house with its own pool.
Overman noted that while the main house has seen recent updates to the kitchen, master suite, living room and breakfast room, the ideal buyer is likely a "visionary ready to build new, or a steward of history" prepared to undertake an extensive renovation or new construction project.
“We would love the next owner to keep it for many generations and enjoy it like we did,” Overman added, emphasizing the family’s legacy on the island.

Newgard Group and Imperial Moto Launch 'Revault', A Design-Driven Luxury-Auto Vault and Collector Car Community In Little River
Newgard Group, the Miami-based development firm led by Harvey Hernandez, together with Imperial Moto, the iconic Miami lifestyle brand founded by Matt McKenna, has launched Revault, a first-of-its-kind community that blends for-sale luxury car storage, private club culture, Padel sports, and curated design into a single integrated experience.
Newgard Group, the award-winning Miami-based development firm led by Harvey Hernandez, together with Imperial Moto, the iconic Miami lifestyle brand founded by Matt McKenna, has launched Revault, a first-of-its-kind community that blends for-sale luxury car storage, private club culture, Padel sports, and curated design into a single integrated experience. Blending architecture, design and performance, Revault redefines luxury car storage by integrating customizable, for-sale Car Studios with exclusive club amenities and curated experiences.
Born from a shared vision, Revault combines Newgard’s development expertise with Imperial Moto’s deep authenticity in Miami’s car culture. Located in Little River, one of Miami’s fastest-growing creative districts, the 80,000 SF project will feature a limited collection of 16 luxury Car Studios, a members-only Clubhouse, a five-court indoor Padel Club, Imperial Moto’s signature café, and a creative campus designed for events and social connections.
“Revault is more than a real estate development; it’s a cultural ecosystem,” said Hernandez, Founder & CEO of Newgard Group, and a car collector himself. “Our team and Imperial Moto are aligned on creating something that doesn’t exist anywhere else: a destination that blends performance, design and lifestyle in the heart of Miami’s trendiest, up-and-coming neighborhood.”
At its core, Revault is a design-forward car vault concept, offering secure, climate-controlled, two-story Car Studio units with mezzanine lounges, bathrooms and fully customizable finishes. These spaces go beyond traditional car storage; they are lifestyle extensions of their owners, designed to host, work, collect, relax and connect with fellow members of the Revault Society, an invitation-only community built around shared passion for design, performance and culture.
Revault Miami Highlights:
16 for-sale Car Studios ranging from 2,000–8,000 sq. ft., fully finished and customizable
45,000 sq. ft. of hospitality-driven amenities including the Revault Concourse
Amenities include an Owners Clubhouse with concierge services, a temperature-controlled, five-court indoor Padel Club for year-round play, a gym, spa and wellness areas
Creative campus with work suites, conference rooms, and space for curated events and social programming operated by Imperial Moto
State-of-the-art security and monitoring throughout the building
Revault represents the first real estate venture for Imperial Moto, known globally for design-driven experiences, creative activations and a specialty coffee culture. McKenna and Hernandez initially pursued the same Little River site independently—Hernandez focused on a collector car condo concept, while McKenna envisioned a mixed-use development including a padel component. Their ideas converged naturally, forming a foundation for a true partnership.
“Imperial Moto has always been about connection through craft, design and shared passion,” said McKenna, Founder of Imperial Moto. “Revault is the evolution of that idea—a space where we can offer more than a product or a place. It’s a full-spectrum lifestyle built for people who live what they love.”
Revault Miami, at 7441 N. Miami Avenue, Miami, Florida, is now welcoming reservation inquiries from selective owners seeking to join this exclusive car collector community. Construction is slated to begin in 2026.
In addition to Miami, the partnership is actively working on other Revault locations in Delray Beach, Palm Beach and Nashville, with other cities to follow.
