PROJECT CHALLENGES
​
-
At the time of the acquisition, the City of Miami enacted a law limiting property heights in South Beach to 100 feet or 10 stories. This law would have reduced the scope of the proposed development rendering it economically unfeasible.
​
-
Although the site encompassed the southernmost acreage on the beach, the “South of Fifth” neighborhood was not considered a prime residential location.
​
-
Strict environmental laws governing endangered species, beach erosion and aquatic life posed design and construction challenges for the proposed development.


OUR SOLUTION
-
Used the government re-zoning process to gain approval to develop 1.4 million square feet.
​
-
Worked with government/conservation officials to ensure protected wildlife, habitat and aquatic life were not disturbed during the development process.
​
-
Property master plan was designed to create the only gated oceanfront community on South Beach. The exclusivity and design concept achieved the highest sales per square foot in South Beach.
​
-
Utilized a phased development approach, which allocated costs for the overall property amenities (spa/fitness center/tennis courts/beach pavilion) into Phase 1. This increased the marketability of Phase 1 and Phase 2. More importantly, it decreased the costs associated with Phase 2, reducing the exposure and significantly increasing the profitability.
