Mixed-Use Building To Rise Where Wynwood And Edgewater Meet

A 12-story mixed-use residential building is planned for a site where Wynwood meets Edgewater in Miami.

Developer Wynwood Owner LLC is proposing the project, 2100 NMA, at 2100 N Miami Ave.

The building will be home to 339 residential units with amenities, and about 407 on-site parking spaces and five on-street parking spaces.

The city’s Urban Development Review Board unanimously recommended approval.

Along with the residential uses, the building is to include 25,653 square feet of retail and 18,713 square feet of amenities.

Carli Koshal, an attorney representing the developer, said the property at the northwest corner of North Miami Avenue and Northwest 21st Street is 65,842 square feet, or 1.512 acres. The structure will amount to 503,000 square feet of floor area.

The developer is requesting zoning code waivers to allow:

  • A 30% reduction in required parking spaces within a transit corridor
  • Up to 10% increase related to lot coverage
  • Up to a 10% increase related to setbacks above the eighth floor along Northwest Miami Court
  • Up to a 10% increase in floorplate length and floorplate area
  • Substitution of two residential loading berths for one commercial berth
  • Spacing of vehicular entries along Northwest First Avenue

Ms. Koshal told the board the property was rezoned to permit structures of this size and mass.

Arquitectonica is the architect.

Miami Heat Star Partners With Developer On Wynwood Project

Miami Heat’s Udonis Haslem retired this week, but his career as a developer is just getting started after he broke ground on a project for affordable housing in Wynwood.

Wynwood Works, which received a large amount of public investment, was started by Haslem and Magellan Housing.

The 20,238-square-foot lot at 2035, 2037, and 2043 N. Miami Ave. was deeded free of charge to Wynwood Works MTZ LLC, headed by Larry D. Capp of charity Mt. Zion Developments. Then, the nonprofit sold the lots to Wynwood Works LLC, a joint venture between Magellan Housing and Haslem, for $6 million.

The developer agreed to preserve affordable housing on the property for 50 years in exchange for a grant from the CRA worth $9.9 million and a portion of the retail rents. There will be 48 studio apartments, 66 one-bedroom units and eight two-bedroom units with rents ranging from $512 to $1,756 per month.

The purchase was made through Wyn Garden North, LLC, a subsidiary of ABH Developer Group led by Alexis Bogomolni. Closing took place May 11th. The acquisition completes ABH Developer Group’s assemblage in the Wynwood Norte district, which includes the purchases of 3129 NW 1st Ave., 3131 NW 1st Ave., 75 NW 31st St., 79 NW 31st St., 85 NW 31st St., and 93 NW 31st St., bringing the total purchase price of the assemblage to $10,125,000.

The firm has 13 projects ranging from 24 to 150 units in various stages of development just within the Wynwood Norte boundaries. ABH is planning to transform the assemblage into a multifamily development to serve the growing demand for attainable housing options in Miami.

The Wynwood Norte district is bordered by I-95 to the west and North Miami Avenue to the east, and Northwest 29th Street to the south and I-195 to the north. Given its walkability to many art, cultural and entertainment and dining destinations and its recent zoning overhaul, the neighborhood is poised for significant development.

Real Estate Lending Firm To Open 8,000-SF Wynwood Office

Arbor Realty Trust, a publicly-traded lender of residential rental projects, will move into an 8,000-square-foot office in Miami’s Wynwood Arts District later this year.

The Uniondale, New York-based company with $16.59 billion in assets as of March will open an office on the seventh floor of Wynd 28, an eight-story building at 127 N.W. 27th Ave. Its Miami office is currently in a WeWork space at 360 N.W. 27th St. in Miami.

Arbor Realty Trust specializes in providing financing for multifamily and single-family rental portfolios and other diverse commercial real estate assets.

The company opted to stay in Wynwood because the location “symbolizes the trends and growth potential of the Miami market as the neighborhood has emerged as a marquee hub for young creatives — not unlike Brooklyn and Arts District Los Angeles,” the company stated. The neighborhood is also part of Miami’s downtown submarket, “which accounts for one-fifth of the Miami multifamily market’s total inventory.”

Available office space for Wynd 28 is listed on LoopNet.com for $65 per square foot.

Moishe Mana Plans $20M+ Redevelopment Of RC Cola Plant In Wynwood

Moishe Mana plans a $20 million-plus redevelopment of the former RC Cola Plant in Wynwood, a move forward on the long-stalled vision for his portfolio in Miami’s arts district.

The project will include an indoor food hall with nine tenants, a bar spanning 100 feet on two sides, outdoor space for food trucks, a beer garden, retail, event space, and 10,000 square feet of parks and gardens at 550 Northwest 24th Street, according to Mana and Thomas Martin, RC Cola project director.

Dubbed Mana Wynwood @ RC Cola, the project is more of a repurposing than a new development. While two small buildings will be demolished per city requirements to allow for a loading area, the rest of the site and all of the murals will remain, Martin said.

Mana bought the 2.7-acre RC Cola Plant in 2010 for $2.1 million, according to records. Since then, he has run it as a concert venue. The 145,000-square-foot site will continue as such a venue, and will include outdoor event space and 10,000 square feet of indoor seating and stage space.

“We are going to put [on] outdoor music at night that we have for concerts. During the day, it will be a place for families to visit,” Mana said. “It’s really a huge undertaking.” 

Mana Common, the developer’s company, has narrowed down the list of potential tenants to 20 but leases have not been signed, according to Martin. One retailer will sell RC Cola-themed and Wynwood-themed merchandise. The rest of the retailers are expected to rotate and sell merchandise tied to events.

Renderings show the main entrance emulates the look of a subway station with a graffitied sculpture of a subway car.

“It’s an ode to the original tagging community, when the tagging community used to tag on the subway trains. That was their canvas,” Martin said. 

Construction is expected to start soon, with completion slated for December of next year.

The RC Cola Plant is separate from his Wynwood properties that obtained a special area plan, or SAP, designation from the city in 2016.

JV Proposes 10-Story, 115-Key Hotel In Wynwood

Robert Finvarb Companies and Hidrock Properties are planning a 115-room branded hotel in Miami’s Wynwood, marking the joint venture’s third project in the artsy neighborhood.

An affiliate of Aventura-based Robert Finvarb and New York-based Hidrock bought a 0.2-acre site at 160 Northwest 28th Street for $6.7 million, records show. The seller, an entity managed by Maxmillian Beltrame Widmann in Miami, had paid $3 million for the vacant lot in 2016.

The proposed 10-story hotel will cost an estimated $20 million to build, said Hidrock CEO Abraham “Abie” Hidary.

“We are in the very early stages of planning it,” Hidary said. “There will be three food and beverage components on the ground-floor, the second floor and the rooftop.” 

The joint venture has not yet identified the brand for the hotel, Hidary added.

Hotels represent the next wave of development in Wynwood, Hidary said. The neighborhood’s first hotel, the 217-key Arlo Wynwood at 2217 Northwest Miami Court, built by Quadrum Global, was completed last year. A partnership involving Andres Klein, founder and principal of BH Investment Group, is developing One Eleven Wynwood Hotel by Sonder, a proposed 72-room project at 111 Northwest 26th Street. And in December, Aventura-based Turnberry Associates unveiled plans to build a mixed-use hotel project at 127 and 135 Northwest 24th Street and 128 and 138 Northwest 25th Street. Last year, Turnberry paid $13.1 million for the properties.
