Florida YIMBY has an update regarding a mid-rise building we first covered in April 2023. Our sources share that the final deck of VIDA Residences has been poured, indicating that that the project is moving forward with its scheduled 2026 completion.
Facade work is making significant progress on the first of two 43-story towers at 222 NE 1st Avenue in Downtown Miami, known as Namdar Towers or simply “222.” Developed by New York-based Namdar Group, the project will encompass approximately 1.3 million square feet, integrating residential, commercial, and parking components. Designed by Behar Font & Partners, with De Los Reyes Engineering Inc. as the structural engineer, the development is being constructed by John Moriarty & Associates of Florida. The first tower stands 450 feet tall, while the second tower is planned for the opposite side of the block, replacing a low-rise structure currently occupying the site.
Two developers are moving forward with a high-rise multi-family development in Broward County. Sereno Fort Lauderdale will measure 14 stories above grade, requiring 230,000 square feet of new construction.
Construction continues to climb at Okan Tower, a 70-story mixed-use skyscraper at 555 North Miami Avenue in Downtown Miami. Designed by Behar Font & Partners with Thornton Tomasetti as the structural engineer and Ortus Engineering as the civil engineer, and developed by Okan Group, the 902-foot-tall tower will feature 163 luxury residences, 236 condo-hotel units under the Hilton Hotels & Resorts brand, a 316-key hotel, 64,000 square feet of office space, and multiple retail and dining venues. Okan Construction is the general contractor.
Two developers are one step closer to making their multi-family housing project a reality. That venture? Parks at Davie, a 383-unit apartment complex.
