Privé Group is planning to build 120K SF of office space in the Ojus neighborhood near the Aventura Mall.
The Aventura-based investment and development firm filed a pre-application on Wednesday seeking approval from the county to build an 11-story office building and a small residential building connected by a seven-story parking garage at 18802 and 18820 W. Dixie Highway.
The Arquitectonica-designed development is called Aventura Office Center in a site plan for the three structures submitted with the application. The office building includes 4,400 SF of ground-floor commercial space and a rooftop terrace with landscape architecture from the Miami office of Enea, which is headquartered in Switzerland.
The office would front Dixie Highway with a two-story residential building set in the rear of the 1.32-acre site behind the parking garage. Privé is planning 12 studio units at the building sized at around 380 SF each.
Floor plates at the office building would span around 14K SF, with elevators, staircases and bathrooms in the core of the building.
The proposal is an update to plans submitted more than six years ago called Aventura Square. A local community council approved plans in June 2017 for Privé to build 94K SF of office condos, 5,700 SF of retail and 340 parking spaces on the site, the South Florida Business Journal reported. The council also approved up to 12 apartments at the property.
The original plans called for an eight-story building, but zoning rules have since been modified to allow buildings up to 12 and 15 stories in the Ojus District, allowing Privé to submit its 11-story plan, according to the letter of intent submitted by Vazquez with the application.
