Miami New Construction Spotlight – Reach Brickell City Centre

1 Comment

Project Exterior Night (1) Reach Brickell City Centre 68 SE 6 St., Miami, FL 33131

Unless you’ve been living under a rock for the last year, you’ve probably heard a lot of hype about the mega project that is Brickell City Centre.   This $1.05 billion mixed-use development by Swire Properties  is the single largest project currently underway in Downtown Miami, which will consist of  a 565,000 square-foot shopping center, 128,580 square feet of offices, a 131,651 square-foot wellness center, 790 condominiums in two towers (“Reach” and “Rise”), 263 hotel rooms, 89 serviced apartments, and 2,600 parking spaces above and below ground.

Currently, only one of the two condo towers has been released for sale: Reach Brickell City Centre.  I had the opportunity to tour the sales office yesterday and hear from the sales team about this exciting new project.  Designed by internationally acclaimed Arquitectonica, Reach will consist of 43 stories with 383 luxury condominiums, and floor plans ranging from 1-4 bedrooms.

The building models were beautiful and incredibly detailed; read on for photos and more info on Reach Brickell City Centre.

Unit 405 at Wynwood Lofts
250 NW 23 St., Miami, FL 33127
1  bedroom/1 bathroom/ 1,063 sf

I am thrilled for my client who just closed on his fabulous new condo in Wynwood Lofts!  Located at 250 NW 23 Street just off of 2nd Ave., Wynwood Lofts is just a stone’s throw from neighborhood staples like Panther Coffee, Jugofresh and Cafeina, and a quick walk to the shops, restaurants and art galleries of Wynwood.  Built in 2005, the pet-friendly building has 36 loft-style units with soaring ceilings, concrete floors, covered parking and a rooftop pool.  In-unit camera monitors provide extra security allowing tenants to view building activity at all times.  The unique feature of Wywood lofts is that it is zoned for both residential and commercial use.  This provides for quite an eclectic mix of residents, from photographers to designers and beyond.

The unit my client purchased has 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom and 1,063 square feet.  It has 14-foot ceilings with a built-in mezzanine and spiral staircase, as well as an upgraded kitchen and bathroom, and upgraded light fixtures and air ducts.  It sold for $362,000 ($341/sf).  It’s an amazing space and I can’t wait to see what he and his fiance do with it!

There are currently two other available units for sale in the building and one available rental:

Unit #         Bedrooms          Bathrooms          SF          List Price           Price/SF

302                  1                               1                   1,463       $560,000           $382.7

Market Update: 1050/1060 Brickell – Year in Review

Leave a comment


1060 Brickell

1060 Brickell

Since I live in 1060 Brickell, friends and neighbors often ask me about recent sales in the building.  I decided to review and compare the sales data from 2013 and 2012, and I wasn’t surprised to see just how much prices have gone up in such a short time.

In 2013, there were 37 closed sales in 1050/1060 Brickell.  The lowest priced sale was unit #2512, a studio that sold for $230,000 or about $383/square foot.  The highest priced sale was unit #4507, a penthouse unit with 3 bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms that sold for $1,275,000 or about $497/square foot.

To get an idea of just how much values have gone up in the building, check out the data from 2012.  That year, there were 42 closed sales.  However, the lowest priced sale was unit #1509, a studio that sold for $175,000 or about $317/square foot.  The highest priced sale was unit #1820, a 2 bedroom/2 bathroom unit that sold for $425,000 or about $333/square foot.  What a difference a year makes!

Check out all of the sales data in detail below, and as always, contact me at lindsayrubens@avatarflorida.com or 305.799.2124 for more information.
