A developer has proposed a supertall skyscraper in Miami-Dade County. Walter Defortuna, the brother of Fortune International Group’s CEO, wants to move forward with an 81-story building.
Florida YIMBY has learned of two Miami-based projects: one that has finished construction and another that could break ground next year. Here’s what we know.
Optimum Property Management hopes to get approval for a high-rise tower in Miami-Dade County. Plans call for the demolition of a low-rise apartment complex built in 1960. In its place would rise a 50-story building comprising close to 560,000 square feet of new construction.
Miami’s Urban Development Review Board (UDRB) will consider proposals for the second and third phases of Flagler Oasis, a multi-building mixed-use development underway in the heart of Little Havana being developed by Aventura-based real estate firm Gamla Cedron Group. With the first phase of the development already under construction and scheduled for completion later this year, phases two and three would bring a 16-story residential tower with 248 dwelling units and an additional 8-story structure containing 70,000 square feet of office space, as well as commercial spaces and integrated parking structures. The project is designed by Coral Gables-based Behar Font & Partners with Witkin Hults + Partners as the landscape architect, and is expected to rise as high as 176-feet or so.
