Miami Blue Lagoon Development Site Slated for Auction Following Foreclosure Ruling
A development site in Miami’s Blue Lagoon area, previously approved for apartments and a hotel, is now facing foreclosure and is set to be auctioned due to a $17.9 million lawsuit. Miami-Dade County Circuit Court Judge Thomas J. Rebull granted the foreclosure judgment on August 10 in favor of TIG Romspen US Master Mortgage against 7 at Blue Lagoon LLC and loan guarantor Caroline Weiss. The judgment is tied to a loan with $13.2 million in outstanding principal and additional interest and fees. The court found that the borrower failed to repay the loan by its maturity date on October 1, 2022, and neglected to pay real estate taxes from 2020 to 2022.
