The Chetrit Group’s vision for the 6.2-acre Miami River may finally come to fruition after landing a loan to begin construction. The New York City-based developer was granted $310 million in financing from Madison Realty Capital for the first two phases of the 4.2 million-square-foot mega project in Brickell, which is comprised of building the first of four towers and the additions and improvements to the riverwalk. The deal was arranged by Henry Bodek of Galaxy Capital Group, and is collateralized by the land for the last three phases. Kobi Karp is the architect for development, which will ultimately yield 1,928 residential units, 330 hotel rooms, 196,882-square-feet of retail space, and 98,040-square-feet of office space across multiple glass-clad towers along with boat slips, an outdoor theater, a residents lounge, a business center, a state-of-the-art gym, a pool, and a café.
