When stepping off of the private elevator, owners and guests are greeted with a Studio Munge-designed haven of luxury that includes floor-to-ceiling windows with sweeping views of the Atlantic Ocean and South Beach.

Rift-cut white oak hardwood flooring blends seamlessly with the hand-selected premium Calcatta marble countertops and rich textiles in the main living areas. In the kitchen, some residents have custom-designed breakfast areas built into the end of the preparation bar that also offers guest seating. Backlit fluted glass accents and bronze finish inlays give a glamorous touch to the integrated Gaggenau appliance suite, which also includes a wine refrigerator in most residences.

With just 30 private oceanfront residences positioned in a glassy 15-story tower, each home in the sky is curated by Studio Munge and designed by Kobi Karp. The project is being designed in a manner that allows direct ocean views from each residence, while simultaneously paying homage to the historic Art Deco architecture of the neighborhood.

Utilizing a $4.85 million grant from the City of Miami Beach, the development team (Lionstone Development, Flag Luxury Group and Ben-Josef Group) have agreed to re-develop the public section of the beachwalk that tied the old Morris Lapidus-designed Sagamore Hotel to Lincoln Road in a manner that honors Morris Lapidus and his contribution to the history of Miami Beach architecture.

In the background of the above rendering, you can see the entrance to the public beachwalk near the entry to the historic hotel and how they match the historic MiMo style.

Despite the nearby public beachwalk, The Ritz-Carlton Residences South Beach will not sacrifice on the privacy that the global elite seeks. The condo tower is situated behind the historic hotel and cantilevered over the current Ritz-Carlton South Beach Hotel with a private entrance.

Private Amenities At The Ritz-Carlton Residences South Beach

Within the condo portion of the development, owners can expect an exclusive residents’-only amenity floor with a signature Mediterranean restaurant, Zaytinya, and Lapidus Bar by the highly decorated Michelin-starred celebrity chef, José Andrés.

Chef Andrés is also the most recent recipient of the Presidential Medal of Freedom for his contribution to humanitarian efforts, and has been listed on Time Magazine’s “100 Most Influential People” list TWICE, among many other prestigious honors.

Standing 519-feet tall, Five Park is the new tallest building in Miami Beach. This is a record once held by the Blue Diamond and Green Diamond at 47th and Collins, measuring 502 feet each.

Five Park Miami Beach Completed Tower

Canopy Park at Five Park Monstrum Playground

Impact On The South Beach Neighborhood

One of my favorite aspects of Five Park is the impact it has had on the section of South Beach around 500 Alton Road and West Avenue.

For decades, visitors were met at the gateway to South Beach by an eyesore that was an old building that had been gutted and abandoned surrounded by some vacant lots that were filled with overgrowth and trash. Not very welcoming. Going forward, the new residential tower is surrounded by a lush Canopy Park, activating the sprawling site with community-oriented amenities that include a MONSTROM playground, an orchid garden, art installations, outdoor gym, event lawn and a new dog park!

ArquitectonicaGEO, the landscape architecture arm of the iconic Miami design firm has also formed a bioswale or “dry river”. This will combat against flooding and keep the park beautiful into the foreseeable future by channeling excess runoff and high tides into a cistern for irrigation.

Five Park Miami Beach Pedestrian Bridge

Connecting South Beach And South Of Fifth Through Art

While most neighborhoods in Miami Beach flow together seamlessly, South of Fifth has traditionally been secluded by the busy intersection of the I-395 MacArthur Causeway and Alton Road.

With the addition of Five Park’s new pedestrian bridge, residents can stroll over the traffic and enjoy the amenities closer to South Pointe. This connects the Beachwalk, Baywalk and the public parks in between along with all of the restaurants.

For the drivers, they are able to enjoy a new permanent art installation at the same time. The Miami Beach Canopy, as it is called, was designed by artist Daniel Buren. His design concept was inspired by “Walking Under, Along and On the Colors”.

Five Park Residences’ Private Amenities

Inside Five Park is just as well-thought-out as the public amenities. In addition to the luxury amenities we have come to expect in a new Miami Beach tower, the 26th floor of Five Park is reserved for an exclusive residents-only club called the “Canopy Club.”

The Canopy Club offers a club lounge, bar, billiards room, a jewel box bar, private dining room and a private restaurant by celebrity chefs Michelle Bernstein and Jeffery Chodorow.

Inside the wellness center, residents will enjoy private training areas, indoor and outdoor workout zones, a yoga deck with juice bar, spinning, as well as an in-house wellness coach and personal trainer. The spa offers lounges with separate saunas, a hammam and dedicated massage/treatment rooms with personalized concierge service.

Additional amenities include a lushly landscaped amenity deck, swimming pools with cabanas and water views from all around, a meditation deck, movie theater, a learning lab for the littles as well as a teen club. In the garage you will find a charging station for electric vehicles. If you prefer to not use your car, the 24-hour concierge and butler services can help you arrange the use of the house car.

At the private beach club on South of Fifth residents can enjoy lounge chairs, umbrellas and towel service. Transportation is provided by an electric Moke vehicle.

Rendering of Five Park Miami Beach Living Area

Inside The Residences

The designs of the residences at Five Park are meant to hone the natural light, making the space and natural materials stand out, creating a serene and thought-out space.

In the kitchens, residents will find Gaggenau appliances, including wine chillers. Italian cabinetry with integrated appliances complements the porcelain flooring and stone countertops. The residences have 10-foot ceilings with floor-to-ceiling impact glass on all outer walls.

Divided into two categories, the Park Residences are on levels 8-25. This is where you will find one- to three-bedroom layouts with a more action-oriented view. On floors 27-48 you will find the larger Canopy Residences. These are larger, with two- to five- bedroom layouts and unobstructed water views from each room.

Rendering of Five Park Miami Beach Downtown View at Sunset

Despite the soaring height, there are only 226 residences in total at Five Park. Some purchase opportunities do remain, with pricing starting at $1.2 million.

David Martin + THE WELL Founders/Brand

David Martin, CEO of Terra Group, has teamed up with the Founders of THE WELL, a pinnacle wellness brand based in New York, to deliver the most fitting condo project in Miami’s most unique neighborhood, Coconut Grove. David Martin needs absolutely no introduction to Miamians with his astonishing reputation of making Miami-Dade County a better place to live. So the fact that he is teaming up with THE WELL on their second project in South Florida is no surprise to me.

Behind THE WELL is a collaborative team united by a shared purpose to change the way people think about wellness…for the better. THE WELL was founded by 3 distinct founders who each contribute their own experiences, knowledge, backgrounds and understanding as category innovators, wellness consumers and entrepreneurs. Together, Rebecca Parekh, Sarrah Hallock and Kane Sarhan continue to illuminate a path forward for all followers of wellness.

THE WELL your one-stop-shop for wellness for a reason – it’s true. Rather than address only a few aspects of wellness like fitness or mental health, we’ve assembled a comprehensive platform that also enhances social, spiritual, emotional and work-life balance in a single destination.” — Kane Sarhan, Co-Founder & CCO

THE WELL is the Pinnacle of a Wellness Brand

Authentic wellness is not a one-size-fits-all proposition. If it were, we could all follow a single plan and see the same results. The reality is that wellness is as nuanced as the individual and we all need something different to achieve our own personal goals. At THE WELL, we focus on holistic, whole-person wellness through a personalized, integrative and comprehensive approach centered around:

Team Of Experts: From our Chief Medical Officer and our Director of Mindful
Movement, to our licensed massage therapists, we connect you
with world-class experts in their fields of health and wellness.

Integrated Whole-Person Care: We integrate modern medicine and ancient healing practices
to address the physical, mental and spiritual aspects of your
well-being.

Personalized Robust Offering: Wellness looks different for everyone – that’s why we offer a
variety of services, products and experiences to personalize
your journey towards better health.

Quality and Excellence: We did our research, so you don’t have to. We study both
proven practices and leading-edge developments and refine our
experience to reflect the highest levels of safety, effectiveness
and enjoyment.

THE WELL’s 5 Key Pillars of Wellness

There are 5 key pillars of wellness that serve as the framework for THE WELL and how we integrate modern medicine and ancient healing practices to deliver whole-person care.

Food & Nutrition: Food is medicine; it can harm or heal us. Learning your body’s
unique needs can empower you to better nourish and care for
it every day.

Movement & Performance: Mindful movement and functional fitness – tailored to your
needs, abilities and goals – fuel both your mental stamina and
physical strength.

Mind & Spirit: There is a proven and powerful link between the mind and the
body – caring for your mental, spiritual and emotional health
optimizes your overall well-being.

Body & Skin Care: Massages and facials aren’t just feel-good spa treatments —
they are healing body treatments (just a few of many that we
offer) that are critical to the health of your mind, body and spirit.

Lifestyle & Community: Simple lifestyle practices and a supportive, inspiring community
are keys to long-term health and happiness.

A groundbreaking ceremony is always a reason to celebrate, but this one is especially special as the now-demolished tower has been a vacant deteriorating building for years now, so today we celebrate something new and luxurious to come.

“The groundbreaking for The St. Regis Residences, Miami marks a pivotal step in bringing an unparalleled luxury experience to one of South Florida’s most dynamic urban neighborhoods. With each milestone, we’re transforming the Downtown Miami skyline, introducing a level of sophistication and service that only the St. Regis brand can deliver,” said Nick Pérez, President of Related’s Condominium Division.

Rendering of St Regis Residences Miami Brickell Bayfront Bar

With architecture from the famed Robert A.M. Stern Architects (RAMSA), the project used the golden-age ocean liners as a muse and merged them with the modernity of today’s luxury properties.

The future residents of St. Regis Residences, Miami in Brickell will enjoy all of the amenities of a St. Regis Hotel, yet none of the foot traffic. This tower offers the privacy and exclusivity of being a residential-only development.

Among the amenities offered will be the famed St. Regis Tea Room as well as a fine dining restaurant heralded by Fabio Trabocchi. He is a Michelin-starred chef based in Washington DC who originated from a remote part of Italy on the Adriatic Coast.

Coastal Construction is overseeing the manpower that will bring this building to reality, and they expect it should be finished by 2027.

As of today, we know that the tower is over 60% sold with remaining purchase opportunities being offered between $3.7 million up to $45 million for a penthouse.

In addition to the tower residences, two of the residences are rare stand-alone villas, which pay respect to the neighborhood’s history of luxurious estate-style living. These villas also present a unique offering for a waterfront estate on Brickell Avenue that is practically extinct… until now.

All together, only 152 residences will be offered. They range from two to six bedrooms.

Designed by Rafael Viñoly Architects, the project begins with a redesign of One River Point, which gained headway in 2015. The redesigned project is set to bring 440 residences to the area in twin riverfront towers that are each 60 floors at 90 SW 3rd Street, along the Miami River Walk.

Connecting the two towers will be a two story sky bridge with Faena-designed amenities spanning 45,000 square feet. This will serve as the cultural epicenter of the project, according to a statement.

Faena Residences Miami River District Sky Bridge Pool View

“Building on the legacy we established in Miami Beach, our vision for this project is to create a community rooted in our core values-blending artistic expression, cultural immersion, wellness, and innovative design. This new Faena District on the Miami River embodies the true essence of Faena in one of Miami’s most vibrant neighborhoods, offering Miami’s first fully resident-centric design aimed at enhancing well-being and elevating the experience of happiness,” said Alan Faena in a statement.

The globally acclaimed lifestyle brand from Argentina has already reshaped a previously blighted section of Miami Beach into a thriving and luxurious cultural district with Faena House at the epicenter. Ken Griffin has is among the elite residents, with his purchase of the $60 million penthouses.

The development team anticipates that sales and marketing will be open in time for Art Basel, in about a month.

Ransom Everglades’ beautiful campus, located at 3575 Main Highway has a long and storied history. It’s beautiful waterfront campus includes buildings dating back to the beginnings of Miami with the Pagoda. Built in 1902, it was the first structure that began the behemoth that is now Ransom Everglades Academy.

Ransom Everglades Coconut Grove Miami Florida Pagoda

Over the years, the campus has grown to nearly 17 acres right in downtown Coconut Grove and has harvested graduates that have gone on to earn Olympic medals, Oscar awards, novelists, Federal judges and an array of other famous professions.

The school typically garners 90% or more of the 900+ AP exams taken each year that result in a score of 3 or better.

“The school strives to develop students who pride themselves on their academic rigor alongside their morals. Its carefully curated curriculum is reflective of this; students are taught to be independent thinkers, capable of collaborating with others but confident enough to defend their own ideas,” reads the Spears review of the curriculum.

About The Ritz Carlton Residences South Beach

Being known as the original South Beach “Art Hotel,” the Sagamore Hotel at 1671 Collins Avenue was a spearhead to the Art Deco movement in Miami Beach. The hotel is located directly across from Lincoln Road on the South Beach sand and has been a staple in South Beach’s scene of art, history, architecture and entertainment since it opened in 1948.

Directly behind the Sagamore is the Ritz Carlton South Beach Hotel, which will also be incorporated into the redevelopment.

The new Ritz Carlton Residences South Beach will be cantilevered above the Ritz Carlton South Beach hotel, with it’s glassy 15-story structure bringing 30 new oceanfront beach houses that all enjoy ocean views. The owners of these beach houses will also enjoy the full suite of Ritz Carlton amenities, yet they will be separated from the hotel traffic.

Along with the new tower, the developer Lionstone Development, has teamed up with the City of Miami Beach to utilize almost $5M of grant funds to redesign the Lincoln Road Beachwalk. The redesign will pay homage to Morris Lapidus and his contribution to Miami Beach architecture.

About The Beach Homes At Ritz Carlton Residences South Beach

With only 30 purchase opportunities in total, the Ritz Carlton Residences South Beach is the epitome of an ultra-luxury boutique development. Upon launch, potential buyers needed an invitation to even consider the project including the sprawling $125 million upper penthouse.

Because of the exclusivity, privacy and level of service, the ultra high net worth community took notice quickly. We were incredibly proud to be able to represent the first buyer of the building. Our very discerning client took notice of the opportunity and was the first to raise his paddle and speak for residence 7A. When completed, it will be an ocean-facing 2 bedroom with 2.5 baths.

With just 30 total residences and prices beginning at $3.9 million, the developers are expecting a total sell-off to top $450 million by the time closings begin in 2027.

With the continued influx of hedge fund capital coming into Miami and with this being the first ultra-luxury residential development in South Beach for decades, we anticipate this goal will come to fruition.
