Crescent Heights Cancels 50-Story Alton Road Tower, Goes Back To Old Plan

Quote:
Crescent Heights is reverting to original plans for the 500 and 600 block of Alton Road, scrapping a plan for a 50-story tower at the site after opposition from the mayor and residents.

The developer is asking a city board to extend the original project approval for an additional year and allow the project to be built in two phases.

Crescent Heights principal Russel Galbut told TRD that plans for the 600 block of Alton would remain the same, and that he was moving forward ‘immediately’ on 445 rental apartments and 60,000 square feet of commercial space. Galbut was also quoted in the article as saying that a ‘more subdued park’ and ‘smaller tower’ would be built in the 500 Block.


What will go on the site instead:

Note: This may lead to something in the long run. We may not get the old proposal sadly, but something large may rise here.

Empire World Towers: Winning Bidder Selected After $80 Million Offer

Quote:
The Empire World Towers site will soon have a new owner.

PMG CH Downtown Developers, LLC has emerged as the the top bidder for the property with an $80 million offer, exMiami has learned.

Bids were due on July 9, with PMG selected as the finalist on July 21. A total of 15 offers were submitted, ranging from $25 million to $80 million.

PMG agreed to a $7 million deposit and a due diligence period that expires on August 1. A judge must also approve the sale, likely a formality.

In 2005, the property was sold for $31.75 million at what was then the peak of the market.

The market is hot red at the moment. A lot of the sales in terms of condo units for example are actually domestic. International sales do account for many units, but a lot of the units are also from citizens native to the region. Miami is experiencing a condo boom in which international buyers jump on that wagon, but it is also experiencing a rental boom in the form of large scale developments. Also, on the Midrise level, there are several projects scattered. Overtime, all of these small time developments which number in the dozens add up several 1000 units. In terms of development, is better to look at it on the scale of South Florida. While Miami might be hot, so are the surrounding satellite cities and counties along the coast. They are all experiencing a residential boom. Some of these residents are also transplants from the Northeast.

The boom should continue for a while. I think its only getting started as there really isn't any sign of a bubble. Well, at least from the perspective of the real estate analysts.

A good resource for condo information would be cranespotters. Be sure to check it if you haven't simms3_redux. It gives you an idea of many developments on the condo level.

Flying on American Airlines yesterday, there were a lot of ads for Miami condo buildings in their English and Spanish in-flight magazines. I saw ads for the following buildings:

Echo Brickell
Brickell Heights
One Paraiso
Hyde Hollywood
H3 (Hollywood)
The Crimson (Edgewater)

Reminded me of the boom days of 2006-2007.

Still pretty urbane. I rather have this than a tower with parking garages or lots around it.

Miami’s port tunnel to open in August



Quote:
More than two months and $7 million in contractor fines after it was supposed to open, Port Miami’s billion-dollar tunnel is finally about ready to handle traffic, officials said Thursday.

“It’ll be open in early August, no later than two weeks from today,” said Chris Hodgkins, vice president of MAT Concessionaire, the consortium of companies that built the tunnel and will operate it.

The tunnel was scheduled to debut on May 19, pulling a projected 16,000 port-bound vehicles a day off Miami’s downtown streets. But various glitches, including malfunctioning exhaust fans and a leaking drainage pipe, have prevented it from opening.

Condos & Hotel for Wynwood:



Quote:
The twelve story mixed-use tower of condos and hotel units in Wynwood which it was earlier reported that the Board of Planning & Zoning wasn't a fan of (for some reason) has gotten approval for rezoning, and the whole project should be completed by September of 2016. As far as we know, it doesn't have a name yet. The landscape architect is Raymond Jungles, the architect of record is ADD Inc., and most importantly the design architect is Studio Dror, notably the firm that proposed the winning design for DawnTown's Bayfront Park design competition.
