33 Alhambra ProCo, LLC, an affiliate of a joint venture partnership between local developer MG Developer and Peru-based VYV, has submitted plans for an 8-story mixed-use development known as Alhambra Parc, also referred to as 33 Alhambra, in Coral Gables. The project aims to develop the 1.12-acre site at 33 Alhambra Circle, which was acquired in 2022 for $19,250,000. The proposed 104-foot-tall structure would yield a total floor area ratio of 170,694 square feet, comprising 78 residential units, 28,400 square feet of commercial space, and 151 parking spaces. Bellin Pratt & Fuentes Architects is responsible for the design of the Mediterranean-style building, set to be reviewed by Coral Gables’ Development Review Committee on May 31.
The property encompasses six contiguous land parcels at 33, 43, and 47 Alhambra Circle, along with 2001 Galiano Street and 42 and 20 Navarre Avenue. It spans 48,770 square feet and forms an irregular-shaped block within the Central Business District of Coral Gables. It borders Alhambra Circle to the east, Navarre Avenue to the north, Galiano Street to the west, and Minorca Avenue to the south. Below are two images showing the existing residential buildings on the site, which were constructed between 1927 and 1960.

The renderings of Alhambra Parc depict the building fully embracing the Mediterranean architectural style Coral Gables is known for. The design incorporates traditional brown barrel roof tiles that harmonize with the local aesthetic, adding a timeless element to the structure. The walls feature a blend of textured and smooth stucco, enriched with precast stone cladding and precast decorative cornices that underscore the elegance typical of Mediterranean architecture. Modern elements such as bronze aluminum railings, aluminum mashrabiya panels, and an aluminum and glass canopy structure are thoughtfully integrated, offering a contemporary twist while maintaining a respectful nod to the neighborhood’s architectural heritage.
