Royal Palm Companies Launches Sales Of Legacy Hotel & Residences At Miami Worldcenter

Miami-based real estate developer Royal Palm Companies (RPC), has officially launched sales for Downtown Miami’s newest mixed-use tower, Legacy Hotel & Residences, the soaring branded mixed-use skyscraper in the heart of mega-project Miami Worldcenter (MWC). On the heels of the successful completion of PARAMOUNT Miami Worldcenter, Downtown Miami’s newest residential condo tower with its famous Sky-Port, developer Dan Kodsi aims to transform Miami’s skyline again, this time in the hospitality and branded residence market. Located at 942 Northeast First Avenue, Legacy is expected to break ground in 2020. OneWorld Properties will be leading marketing and sales where pricing starts at $300,000.

Designed for the innovative and cosmopolitan traveler seeking a home away from home, Legacy Hotel & Residences aims to disrupt the condo space by introducing microLUXE living to Miami. The concept will offer homeowners luxury small living with the flexibility to live in or rent their home without rental restrictions, which will fulfill the demand of a rapidly growing and more international downtown core. Residents will have the option to rent on their own or through the tower’s hotel rental program, offsetting carrying and maintenance costs.

“When travelers come to Miami and stay on the beach, they find themselves inevitably crossing the bridge to the mainland, where all the latest attractions are; from Wynwood, the Miami Design District to the American Airlines Arena and PAMM. We've seen the tourism growth and are filling a void for the leisure traveler who doesn't have a downtown hotel with resort-style amenities in the center of it all,” said Dan Kodsi, Developer at RPC.

Legacy Hotel & Residences will bring international flair to the downtown skyline where the neo-futurism-inspired tower will feature 278 branded residences sitting atop a 255-room hotel. Legacy’s microLUXE residences range from 400 SF to 949 SF with studios and two-bedroom units. RPC takes the micro-living movement to the next level with their microLUXE concept, where each residence will offer the functionality of a micro-style home with the high-quality design and superior finishes of an elite luxury condominium. All residences will be equipped with a full kitchen and washer and dryer combinations. These small ergonomic but bespoke residences by RPC’s in-house design team in collaboration with Kobi Karp Architects and IDDI will offer buyers the freedom to rent their microLUXE residences without any restrictions.

The mixed-use tower will offer a suite of first-of-its-kind amenities, including ground floor retail, a hotel, microLUXE residences. Signature amenities of the tower include a sophisticated members-only international business lounge, dramatic cantilevered, Singapore-inspired pool, downtown’s largest hotel pool deck set on one acre, a first-of-its-kind medical and wellness center, all topped with the project’s signature amenity: the city’s first enclosed rooftop atrium, taking up the top seven floors of the tower.

“With our experience selling Downtown Miami through previous projects during its various real estate cycles, we understand the downtown buyers and their demands,” said Peggy Olin, CEO of OneWorld Properties. “We are bringing our buyers from over 60 countries an alternative pied-à-terre – the piece that was missing— for residents who seek small living and large experiences,” she said.

Legacy Hotel & Residence’s will become an iconic centerpiece of Miami Worldcenter, one of the largest private real estate developments underway in the United States. The ten-block project will include world-class retail, hospitality and residential uses in the center of Miami’s urban core. Providing unmatched accessibility, Legacy Hotel & Residences is conveniently located next to I-95 and I-395, as well as the Virgin MiamiCentral Station, the Metrorail and Metromover stations.

Ugo Colombo Completes Miami’s Tallest Condo Tower As CMC Group’s Brickell Flatiron Receives TCO

Brickell Flatiron, CMC Group’s new 64-story luxury condominium tower in Downtown Miami’s Brickell Financial District, has received its Temporary Certificate of Occupancy (TCO) from the City of Miami. The milestone opens the door for closings to get underway as buyers take ownership of their residences, begin interior build-outs, and prepare to move-in this fall. With its distinct flatiron shape and curvilinear façade designed by architect Luis Revuelta, the 736-foot-high, 64-story, Brickell Flatiron tower becomes the tallest condominium south of New York City. Approximately 95% of the development’s 527 units have already been sold, with remaining residences priced from $790,000 to $3 million, and one upper duplex penthouse for $8 million.

Brickell Flatiron has attracted a diverse mix of residents since launching in 2015, including a significant percentage of domestic buyers. While the tower has enjoyed steady sales activity among buyers from Mexico, Argentina, Italy, Venezuela and Colombia, U.S. buyers have accounted for more than half of all unit sales to date. Approximately 70% of the building’s buyers came from U.S. markets, evidence that Americans are increasingly drawn to Downtown Miami’s urban lifestyle, which comes at a fraction of the price of luxury living in other gateway cities.

“When we started developing in Miami in the early 1990s, our firm viewed Brickell and Downtown as a ‘blank canvas’ that would one day come to life as a vibrant residential and commercial district where streets were alive 24 hours a day,” said developer Ugo Colombo, Founder of CMC Group. “Brickell Flatiron stands out for its unique luxury lifestyle woven into the urban landscape and is a reflection of Miami’s coming of age as a cosmopolitan city with a thriving downtown at its heart.”

Italian design architect Massimo Iosa Ghini used inspiration from Brickell Flatiron’s curved façade to outline the building’s sleek amenity spaces, creating a seamless transition from exterior to interior. The tower’s 64th-floor rooftop amenities encompass a Sky Spa, Sky Pool and Sky Gym with 360-degree panoramic views of the bay and downtown Miami’s glimmering cityscape. Residents have access to a host of therapeutic services and other offerings including private steam, sauna and locker facilities, a 6,300 SF state-of-the-art fitness center with Pilates, yoga and aerobics studios, and a juice bar. Additional features include a resort-style lap pool and separate children’s pool on the 18th floor, private movie theater with stadium seating, billiards and cigar room, wine cellar, 24-hour concierge and valet parking, on-site vehicle washing and detailing, and electric car-charging stations.

In 2016, CMC Group completed the $22.5 million sale of Brickell Flatiron’s 24,800 square foot ground-floor retail/restaurant space. The buyer, Elysee Investments, is a firm led by Avi Dishi of New York and Haim Yehezkel of Miami, which owns and manages a portfolio of commercial properties in New York and South Florida. Exciting tenants have already signed on to lease the space, including a popular London-based Japanese entertainment restaurant concept.

Delivery of Brickell Flatiron coincides with a rapid population boom in Miami’s urban core. Downtown Miami’s residential population has more than doubled since 2000 and grown by 40% since 2010, according to a recent demographics study by the Miami Downtown Development Authority. Today, more than 92,000 people live in the area and that number is expected to eclipse 100,000 by 2021. This growth has been driven by the rise of vertical residential towers and the activation of a thriving streetscape that ranks among the world’s most dynamic urban centers.

Located at 1030 15th Street, Miami Beach, Ten30 South Beach will rise 4-stories and will offer studios, one- and two-bedroom units ranging in size from 626 SF  up to 1,196 SF. Designed by architectural and interior design firm Saladino Design Studio, Ten30 echoes the beauty of its surroundings. The building will be surrounded in greenery, natural woods and finished concrete throughout. The outdoor courtyard by the building’s entrance boasts a lounge area and a living green wall. Ten30 also will feature a sprawling 6,000 SF  rooftop deck with a rosé-colored pool, lounge, outdoor kitchen area complete with barbecue and yoga space. Residences come with expansive terraces and covered parking. The lobby interiors will showcase colorful, eclectic, Mid-Century stylish furniture and artwork. 

With state-of-the-art technology and high-end finishes, each residence will offer sophisticated technology, including the Samsung Family Hub refrigerator, which allows residents to send messages, order Uber rides, play music or see inside their fridge and browse the internet for recipes using available ingredients. Italian-designed chef caliber kitchens, Bluetooth enabled keyless entry with cameras that offer complete control through a homeowner’s mobile phone and spacious master bedrooms with a unique open bathroom concept complete Ten30’s array of amenities that tastefully create a sense of sanctuary expressed in lyrical terms.

“Ten30’s distinctive design will pay homage to Palm Springs and the Miami Beach of yesterday with a modern twist and a boutique oasis feel,” said Mike Saladino of Saladino Design Studios.

“We look forward to the materialization of this project and its aesthetic addition to the neighborhood,” added Sean Saladino of the namesake firm.

“This project is designed to ensure residents can experience all that South Beach has to offer,” said Edgardo Defortuna, President and CEO of Fortune International Group. “Ten30 truly sets itself apart with an unparalleled location and luxurious design and is an ideal primary or secondary home. It is a privilege to manage their sales and marketing efforts.”

Pricing at Ten30 starts from the $400’s with low association fees of less than $400 per month and is being exclusively marketed and sold by Fortune Development Sales.

Aston Martin Residences Miami Adds Private Superyacht Marina Offering Dockside Arrival & Moorage

The marina at the Aston Martin Residences will be available to owners when the project is delivered in 2022.

“As the development is right on the river with direct access from the sea, it made sense that owners and their guests may wish to birth their superyachts right outside their properties. With the increasing size of superyachts, we’re excited to be able to offer our residents large yacht berths for major vessels including yachts over 300 feet. We’re also focusing on our green credentials, protecting and restoring marine ecology to safeguard the wildlife and conserve the stunning location,” said German Coto, CEO of G&G Business Developments. “Every aspect of the Aston Martin Residences at 300 Biscayne Boulevard Way has been carefully considered to meet the needs of our owners, from the 42,275 square feet of sky amenities to the private butler service offering personal support and now the addition of the superyacht marina.”
