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.
The NoMad Residences Wynwood, a new nine-story condominium tower located in the Wynwood Arts District, has officially topped off. Developed by Miami-based Related Group and Manhattan-based developer Tricap, the project is the first residential concept by the NoMad Hotels brand, under parent company Sydell Group. Over 80% of the building’s residences are already under contract, with completion expected in the fourth quarter of 2025.
Related Group and Tricap have secured $141.5 million in financing for NoMad Residences Wynwood. The project, underway in Miami’s Wynwood Arts District, received a $51.5 million mezzanine loan from Related Fund Management and a $90 million senior construction loan from Kennedy Wilson. The nine-story condominium tower commenced construction in October 2023 following its September groundbreaking. Located at 2700 Northwest 2nd Avenue near the Wynwood Walls, the building is designed by Arquitectonica, with interiors by DesignAgency.
