Construction has broken ground on Seventeen Gables Residences, an eight-story, 117-unit condominium development at 1715 Douglas Road in Coral Gables. Developed by BAM Development and Ascendra Capital, the project is designed by Caymares Martin A&E Design with interiors by Asprea Studio. The milestone follows the closing of a $60 million construction loan provided by Dwight Mortgage Trust.
The groundbreaking ceremony marked the formal start of construction for the development, which is located along the Douglas Road corridor near Coral Gables’ commercial core. Project principals, representatives from Cervera Real Estate, and members of the design and financing teams attended the event.

Residences will include one-, two-, and three-bedroom layouts, with pricing starting from the mid-$600,000s. Interior design is being led by Karen Asprea of Asprea Studio.

Amenities are expected to include a fitness center, sauna, pool, resident lounge, co-working spaces, and parking.

“Beginning construction on a project concurrent with the sales launch is highly unusual,” concludes Jesse Ottley, President of Development Sales for Cervera Real Estate. “Having a project move forward before the traditional sales threshold is a testament to this development team’s confidence in both the product and the community.”
Sales and marketing for Seventeen Gables Residences are being handled exclusively by Cervera Real Estate.
