A pre-application has been filed for Santa Cruz Isles, an 8-story affordable senior living development planned for the northwest corner of SW 150th Avenue and SW 282nd Street in Leisure City, Miami-Dade County. Designed by Kaller Architecture, with Javier Tavel of Centennial Management Corp. listed as the applicant, the 94-foot-tall building would contain 120 one- and two-bedroom senior living units above ground-floor parking. The property is owned by 28201 SW 152 AVE, LLC, an entity managed by Lewis Swezy, founder, CEO, and president of Centennial Management Corp.
The property spans approximately 3.895 acres, or 169,653 square feet, according to Miami-Dade County property records. Preliminary site plans indicate that the proposed development would occupy the eastern portion of the parcel, with a listed gross lot area of 90,951.6 square feet, or approximately 2.09 acres. The site is located approximately two blocks east of South Dixie Highway, near the boundary with Naranja, and is positioned diagonally across from The Olivia, a nearby residential complex.
