Developer Baron Property Group is one step closer to realizing a long-anticipated project in Miami. The firm, now working in partnership with LargaVista Companies, secured $30 million in construction financing for Merrick Parc.

Construction has gone vertical on Bentley Residences Miami, a 62-story luxury residential tower rising in Sunny Isles Beach. Designed by Sieger Suarez Architects in collaboration with Bentley Motors and developed by Dezer Development, the 716-foot-tall structure will yield 216 condominium residences with private in-unit sky garages accessed by the patented Dezervator vehicle elevator system. The tower will also include more than 20,000 square feet of amenity space, including a private restaurant by four-time James Beard Award-winning chef Todd English, wellness and fitness facilities, a cinema, whiskey bar, cigar lounge, beach club, and oceanfront pool deck. The beachfront property is located at 18401 Collins Avenue along the Atlantic Ocean, between Turnberry Ocean Club Residences to the north and Sahara Beach Club Condo to the south.

Construction has begun on the Helen and Jacob Shaham Academic Medical Center, a 7-story academic and healthcare facility planned for the campus of Florida International University in Miami. The $158 million project is being developed through a partnership between Florida International University’s Herbert Wertheim College of Medicine and Baptist Health South Florida, with Stantec serving as architect and a joint venture between Robins & Morton and Thornton Construction serving as general contractor. Upon completion in 2028, the facility will encompass approximately 163,000 square feet of academic, research, and outpatient healthcare space.

Two developers have started construction on a low-rise residential endeavor in Miami’s Ojus neighborhood. Canal by IQ will measure six stories above grade and feature a total of 34 condos.
