Developer Proposes 120K SF Office With Studio Apartments In Aventura

Prive Group's Planned Office Building in Aventura 1170x435

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.

Developer Plans Nearly 900-Unit Workforce Housing Project Near Allapattah

construction_canstockphoto5885163-2-1170x435

Developer and investor Vivian Dimond took over a land lease near Allapattah where she plans a nearly 900-unit workforce housing project.

Dimond, a principal at the Coconut Grove-based private equity firm Bayshore Grove Capital, said the project will cost an estimated $175 million to develop. It’s expected to include two 15-story buildings constructed next to the Earlington Metrorail Station at 2100 Northwest 41st Street in Miami’s Model City, on the northern border of Allapattah.

Dimond’s Earlington Metro LLC paid $9 million to acquire the 99-year land lease from EH Development, led by Alain Lantigua, in August, records show. EH Development signed the lease with Saint James Community Development Corp. in 2020. Miami-Dade County owns the 7-acre property.

Arquitectonica is designing the project, which will include 856 apartments ranging from studios to three-bedroom units, as well as about 35,000 square feet of retail space, according to a press release.

Wynwood Project To Include 54 Small Housing Units

Alchemy-ABR-BCP Wynwood LLC's 12-Story Project At 18 NW 23rd St. 1170x435

The booming Wynwood Arts District is preparing to welcome yet another mixed-use residential development with ground floor retail.

Owner-developer Alchemy-ABR-BCP Wynwood LLC plans the 12-story project at 18 NW 23rd St.

The development is to become home to 178 residential units, 13,498 square feet of retail uses, and parking for 183 vehicles.

The City of Miami’s Urban Development Review Board is recommending approval of the project.

The site is bounded by Northwest 23rd Street on the north, Northwest Miami Court to the west, Northwest 22nd Street to the south, and North Miami Avenue on the east.

According to the attorney representing the developer, the property is within the Neighborhood Revitalization District (NRD-1), the intent of which is to facilitate Wynwood’s transition from an industrial district to an active, diverse, mixed-use neighborhood.

He said to accommodate 178 residential units, the owner-developer intends to utilize the Wynwood Transfer of Development Density Program.

In particular, the project will utilize the Affordable Housing Payout option, which allows for a 50% density increase subject to a cash contribution to the Wynwood Public Benefits Trust Fund.

The 54 bonus units provided will each be less than 650 square feet, as required, he said.

The developer is requesting waivers to the Miami 21 zoning code, which would allow:

  • A 30% parking reduction, for property near a public transit corridor.
  • Parking within the mezzanine level. This parking level will be masked with the required art treatment for 100% of the impacted area of the façade.
  • A 10% increase in lot coverage, for the first through eighth stories. This waiver will allow for the lot coverage of 87.71%, up from the base permitted lot coverage of 80%.
  • Reduction in drive aisle width.
  • A 10% increase in floorplate area above eighth story.
  • A 10% increase in rooftop enclosed area. This waiver will allow for an increase from 20% to 22% of the rooftop to be enclosed space. The project includes a 3,812-square-foot enclosed rooftop area, which will accommodate resident amenity space as well as back-of-house functions.
  • Parking in the second layer on primary frontage, and the secondary frontage, and all of this parking area will be masked by the required art treatment.

Arquitectonica is the architect.

The motion to recommend approval of the project passed unanimously.

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.

On the ground floor alone, plans include various restaurants with a combined indoor space of 14,091 square feet, plus extra space on the second and third floors, according to the preliminary site plan by Miami-based Arquitectonica. A drop-off area and a modest parking garage would be present.

The food hall, dubbed L’Isola, will include select restaurants and vendors with a varied selection of international cuisine, as well as a rooftop restaurant and cocktail lounge, according to Miami-based attorney Brian S. Adler, who represents the developer in the application. He stated that there would be 19,200 square feet of internal area, in addition to rooftop and outdoor eating.
