National investment and development firm Property Markets Group and Toronto-based real estate private equity firm Greybrook Realty Partners have changed the programming for a newly completed 49-story project once known as Society Biscayne on the southwest corner of Biscayne Boulevard and Northeast 5th Street in Downtown Miami. The developers rebranded and launched the 571-foot-tall tower as The Elser Hotel & Residences and the property is now addressed as 398 Northeast 5th Street. The newly completed tower offers 646 fully furnished residences, over 19,000 square feet of curated amenities and 5,000 square feet of prime retail space. PMG Residential is the exclusive sales team for the property, with residences priced from the $600,000’s or the equivalent cryptocurrency exchange rate.
“Downtown Miami is the city’s most desirable location for luxury real estate, resulting in high levels of demand met with record-low inventory,” said Ryan Shear, Managing Partner of PMG. “On the heels of an incredible response to our recent pre-construction developments, Waldorf Astoria Residences Miami and E11EVEN Hotel & Residences, PMG continues to meet the demands of Miami’s evolving real estate market by now delivering a new, move-in-ready luxury residential tower to the heart of Downtown with The Elser Hotel & Residences.” Contributing to its growth, Miami has also experienced a flurry of notable corporate relocations from prominent financial institutions over the past two years including Citadel, Blackstone and Thoma Bravo, among others.
The Elser Hotel & Residences, designed by Sieger Suarez Architects with interior architecture and design by Cotofana Designs, boasts sweeping views of Biscayne Bay and the Miami skyline. Fully-furnished residences range from studios to three-bedrooms spanning 404 to 1307 square feet. Managed by industry-leading management company Highgate, the property will allow owners to enter a short-term rental program with daily rental options through The Elser Hotel & Residences Owners Program.
Amenities include a double-level amenity deck spanning over 19,000 square feet which overlooks Downtown Miami and Biscayne Bay, a 132-foot resort-style pool with private lounge areas and a 16-foot poolside screening LED wall. Additional amenities include co-working spaces, oversized modern gyms and fitness studios with frequent group classes, multiple lounges, smart package lockers, bike storage facilities, and a yoga lawn overlooking Biscayne Bay, among others. The property will include a new lobby cocktail bar and restaurant by the creators of Jaguar Sun as well as a coffee lounge by Cafe Domino.
“With historically low resale inventories and long lead times for new projects under development to be completed, we are very excited to be launching The Elser Hotel & Residences Miami, together with PMG, in order to capture the strong demand for move-in ready residences in the Downtown Miami market,” said Peter Politis, CEO of Greybrook Realty Partners. “The short-term rental optionality available to owners, coupled with the high caliber of finishes and offerings, will continue to serve the city as it experiences a population, tourism and corporate relocation boom.”
