Minnesota-based Developer Nolan Reynolds International (NRI) and health club chain Life Time Fitness have reached completion on Life Time Coral Gables, a 1.2-million-square-foot mixed-use project at 237 South Dixie Highway and 225 South Dixie Highway in Coral Gables, Florida. Designed by Gensler, the $500 million development rises 14-stories and sits parallel to train tracks leading up to the nearby Douglas Road Metrorail Station, yielding 495 high-end luxury apartments, an 80,000-square-foot athletic resort, 25,000 square feet of co-working office space and 105,000 square feet of ground floor retail.
NRI acquired the development sites from Jeff Berkowitz for $60.25 million in 2016, previously occupied by a car dealership. Bank of the Ozarks provided the initial construction loan of $158.37 million in January of 2018, the same year the project broke ground when it was then known as Gables Station. The developer held a grand opening ceremony on August 10, 2021. The project is made up of several H-shaped interconnected mediterranean-styled structures with spacious amenity decks and an exterior made of limestone or stucco clad concrete.
