News on Brickell Heights



The Related Group obtained a $160.5 million construction loan for its dual tower Brickell Heights project in Miami.

 

Wells Fargo Bank, acting as an administrative agent for a group of lenders, granted the mortgage to Related Group affiliates 9SMA LLC and 9SMA West LLC. The Miami-based developer broke ground on the 49-story project at 850 South Miami Ave. in July 2014. Like most Miami condo projects during this new cycle, it’s heavily funded by 50 percent buyer deposits.
Brickell Heights will have 358 units in its east tower and 332 units in its west tower.
The project should be completed in early winter 2017. Prices start in the low $300's per square foot for the smaller units and reach $500 per square foot. Unit sizes range from 600 square feet to 2,400 square feet for the penthouses.
Amenities include a 35,000-square-foot Equinox gym, a Soul Cycle studio, and several restaurants. The east tower will include 35,000 square feet.

Timing is everything for Related Group with Brickell Heights


The Related Group broke ground on the 49-story Brickell Heights in July 2014 
The Related Group is pacing itself in this new development boom so it doesn't flood the market with too much supply – a strategy it's employing in Miami's wealthy Brickell area.
The developer broke ground on both towers of the 49-story Brickell Heights in July 2014. After selling out about 95 percent of the 358 units in the east tower, Related has now launched sales of the 332 units in the west tower. Given that the construction schedule was the same for both, they could have put them on the market at the same time.
"The way Related programs all its condo development is we don't want to flood the market with too much product at once," said Arden Karson, Related's project manager for Brickell Heights. "We are strategic in how we release inventory. It allows us to go to market with a lot of pent up demand."
Some analyst estimate that about 6,400 condos are scheduled to be completed east of Interstate 95 in South Florida this year, followed by 6,700 units in 2016 and 5,000 in 2017. That's assuming all of those projects move forward as scheduled. Related is once again the largest developer in this round of building.
Brickell Heights, located on South Miami Avenue between 9th and 10th Street, is scheduled to be completed in early winter 2017, Karson said.
Karson said Brickell Heights has a pricing advantage over much of the new products in downtown Miami. It starts in the low $300's per square foot for the smaller units and goes up to $500 per square foot. Many other new condos on Brickell are listed in excess of $600 per square foot.
Related can offer a lower price point at Brickell Heights because it purchased the site for a reasonable price in 2013 and locked in construction costs before the explosion of development activity, he added.
"We bought it at a different point in the cycle so our buyers can experience tremendous value," Karson said.
Units in Brickell Heights range from 600 square feet to 2,400 square feet for the penthouses. Amenities include a 35,000-square-foot Equinox gym, a Soul Cycle studio, and several restaurants. The east tower will include 35,000 square feet of office condos, which are mostly sold out, she said.

FAENA announces 2 new luxury projects in Miami Beach



Faena announces two condo towers at Miami Beach’s Versailles Hotel 

 

 Miami Beach's market for luxury apartments seems relentless. Foreign buyers'  apetite for ultra-luxurious condos and penthouses will promptly find new opportunities.

I read today in the South Business Journal what will put some excitement in a few realtors' life:

Alan Faena plans to build 22 condos in the former Versailles Hotel and a 41-unit condo next door. 


Argentine developer Alan Faena announced plans for two condo towers at the site of the Versailles Hotel in Miami Beach.

Located at the southeast corner of Collins Avenue and 35th Street, Faena Versailles Classic will have 22 units designed by William Sofield and Faena Versailles Contemporary will have 41 units designed by Brandon Haw. Prices range from $3 million to over $50 million in both projects. They are slated for occupancy in 2017.

“Faena Miami Beach will be the new paradigm of the Miami lifestyle, one where design, refined hospitality and culture converge,” said Faena, head of Faena Group, who is partnering with Len Blavatnik on the project.

The Faena Versailles Classic will be built inside the historic façade of the hotel, which was built in 1940. The design will stay Art Deco with a grand lobby, terrazzo flooring and custom chandeliers, in addition to a garden and reflecting pool. Units will range from one bedroom and 1,034 square feet to four bedrooms and 2,743 square feet. It will also have two duplex penthouses of up to 7,300 square feet with a private roof deck and pool.

Faena Versailles Contemporary will be a new structure next to the hotel and aims to have a design that reflects the hotel's architecture. Units will range from 1,111 square feet with one bedroom to 5,469 square feet with five bedrooms. Each unit will have a balcony. There will also be a full-floor penthouse of 8,000 square feet with 2,500 square feet of outdoor space and a rooftop duplex of 8,200 square feet with a private deck and large infinity pool.

Faena has many projects underway in the Faena District, which spans from 32nd Street to 36th Street in Miami Beach. It owns the Faena Saxony Hotel.

The company is currently building Faena House nearby and said all 47 units are sold out and expected to start closing this spring. Faena acquired the Versailles property for $100 million in 2013.
