Wynwood Square Expected to Break Ground This Summer

"We are excited about this mixed-use pedestrian-friendly project as it will help address Wynwood’s dearth of residential and office uses – while adding much needed prime retail to North Miami Ave," Jeronimo Hirschfeld, founder, chairman and CEO of One Real Estate Investment, said. "Our goal is to integrate these three elements, both physically and functionally, to enhance Wynwood’s already stellar appeal."

When completed, Wynwood Square will include 267 residential units, 55,227 square feet of office space, 25,214 square feet of ground floor retail, and almost 500 parking spaces.

From the article you posted above :

"Miami has a long history of money laundering. Its financial institutions report more suspicious activity than any other major U.S. city besides New York City and Los Angeles, according to FinCen data."

I guess that makes Miami 3rd. in "progress" in the US !

Still first in fraud!

This illustrates the point perfectly. Miami punches FAR above its weight class in this fight.

There's a glaringly apparent difference. NYC and LA have incredibly diverse economies that have long been established on a global scale. Those two cities' historic development booms are not significantly the result of international money laundering and international wealth parking/tax haven activities. Miami's is.

Do those practices happen in NYC, LA, and other cities? Absolutely and obviously. But the NYC and LA skylines weren't created overnight like Miami's was recently, in significant part because of it.

The illusion of prosperity is a powerful drug.

See any similarities?

Project: Morgan Flagler Village

Houston, Texas-based Morgan Group closed on the land for its Flagler Village apartment project in Fort Lauderdale, with plans to break ground later this year.

An affiliate of Morgan paid about $16.5 million for the 3-acre site between Northeast Third and Fourth avenues along Northeast Fourth Street. There, Morgan will build a seven-story, 350-unit apartment building, Evan Schlecker, Morgan Group’s regional vice president of development, told The Real Deal. The amenity-heavy project will also include commercial space and parking, Schlecker said.

MSA Architects and landscape architect Architectural Alliance are designing the development, according to plans filed with the city last year.

^ I wonder how much the developer paid for this lot & why are they building a 8 story building on a prominent Biscayne Blvd. site when the area is zoned for a height of up to 649 feet.

[chris08876]

Could be that they are being cautious or don't want to over commit. We always hear those gloomy stories about Miami going down the shitter economy wise and how the boom is dying. Been hearing that for years now. Usually every month you'll hear it. But IMO it seems like a wasted opportunity. Richman Group is working on the project. They do have a big portfolio of mid rises, so I guess that's their thing. Make me wish Related had this site. And its in Edgewater too with so many towers in the works.

Edge On Brickell has a new design and the site is back in action.

Project: FIU Engineering Center

Florida International University on Tuesday unveiled a $150 million engineering center that it wants to build on 64 acres of county parkland leased by the Youth Fair next door and called on Miami-Dade Mayor Carlos Gimenez to endorse moving the annual event to South Dade.


[...]

Tuesday’s event in a glass-walled campus building overlooking the fairgrounds was designed to highlight what could be done with the land once FIU took over. The 225,000-square foot engineering building would be just one structure to go up on the 64 acres. It would provide more space for the school’s existing programs for engineering, computer science and other technical fields.
