IQ Concept Developments, led by Samir Dichy, and Sagewood Corp. have proposed an 11-story apartment complex just west of the Aventura Mall in the Ojus neighborhood.

The developers, through affiliate 2530 NE LLC, filed an administrative site plan with Miami-Dade County officials for the 0.66-acre site at 2530 and 2540 N.E. 192nd St. It currently has a few single-family homes. The site is located just east of the Scheck Hillel Community School and near the Brightline passenger rail station.

The same developer submitted plans to erect 36 rental units there in 2020. Using the county’s new workforce housing density bonus, which mandates that 10% of the units be workforce housing, it now presented a larger bid.

The project, known as IQ Lofts Ruby, would house 92 parking spaces, some of which would have electric vehicle chargers, and 90 units totaling 94,216 square feet of leasable space. Coworking space, a game room, a fitness facility, and a pool on the third level are among the features.

Dichy said he plans to break ground on IQ Lofts Ruby in the second half of 2024. Construction should take around 18 months.

Clevelander Submits Plans To Turn South Beach Party Spot Into Housing

The owners of the Clevelander Hotel and Bar submitted plans to the city of Miami Beach on Monday to transform the famous party spot into a restaurant and 18-story housing development, shorter than the 30 stories first floated last month but substantially taller than other buildings nearby on Ocean Drive.

The proposal calls for a 200-foot tower above a ground-floor restaurant where the Clevelander currently stands. The project would have 137 residential units, 55 of which would be designated as workforce housing.

Monday’s submission comes more than six weeks after Jesta Group announced its intention to redevelop the Clevelander and adjacent Essex House hotel under Florida’s Live Local Act, which lets developers circumvent local height and density regulations if they commit to designating 40% of new housing units as affordable to renters earning up to 120% of the area median income.

Miami Beach To Consider Mixed-Use Development Deal For City Land

1000-washington_photo credit sfbj 1170x435

On the city parking lot next door, the owner of Miami Beach’s Washington Park Hotel has proposed to create a mixed-use project.

On October 18, the City Commission will consider how to move forward with WPH Properties LLC‘s offer for the 14,694-square-foot parking lot at 1000 Washington Ave. It may decide to suggest that municipal employees make a contract, look for additional bids, or decide not to proceed with any proposal at all.

For $43.75 million, WPH Properties purchased the nearby Washington Park Hotel in the beginning of 2021. The business made the city an unsolicited bid for the parking lot later that year. The preliminary terms of a development agreement have been considered by city employees.

The developer wants to pay $2 million over the first three years, as well as $470,000 annually with a 2% annual increase, to lease the lot from the city for 99 years. The property was evaluated for $8.8 million, according to the city.

WPH Properties presented their ideas for a seven-story structure that would house 1,75 parking spaces, including one level of underground parking, 4,065 square feet of commercial space on the ground floor, and 33,640 square feet of office space. On the roof would be an amenity deck with a pool.

The term sheet does state that, contingent upon the developer’s choice of business plan, the middle three stories of office space—roughly 25,000 square feet—might be substituted with workforce housing apartments. Still, the applicant wants to keep the office space on the top floor regardless.

Miami Beach Neighborhood Draws $150M Block-Size Residential Towers Development

North Beach $150 Million Residential Development_Arquitectonica 1170x435

A $150 million development promises to bring two high-rise towers built on an entire block in North Beach, following a wave of new projects in a once often-ignored neighborhood of Miami Beach.

Twin 19-story residential towers would replace surface parking lots and boutique apartment rental buildings on the 1.57-acre corner of 72nd St. and Dickens Ave., according to developer Russell Galbut. Galbut, Matis Cohen and development firm Lefferts — headed by Mendy Chudaitov — submitted plans to the city of Miami Beach’s land use board, which reviews development plans in October. Lefferts owns the entire block, except for an apartment rental building that would remain on site.

Designed by Arquitectonica, the development would deliver a total of 125 residences.

The project remains in the early phase, but construction was expected to begin in late 2024, if the partners gain the necessary approvals in the coming months. Galbut said it would take about another two years to complete.
