To say that Jorge Perez and his team at the Related Group have over delivered with 50 Biscayne would not only be an understatement but a downright insult. We toured the property last night during the Grand Opening party and the building is beautiful. The unobstructed views of Biscayne Bay at night, the Miami Beach skyline and the Port of Miami lit up and moving were breathtaking. The finish work is fantastic in the common areas like the fitness center and throughout the individual units…plus there are many attractive opportunities for those who are buyers. Here’s a list
The slightly subdued crowd that gathered on the amenities deck was full of buyers and brokers alike enjoying the live band, dancers, laser light show, open bars and refreshments. By 8 o’clock everyone was reminded of why Miami is the best town to work and live. Refreshing bay breezes, cool weather, a crescent moon and scads of beautiful people circulating through 50 Biscayne’s open spaces on the 10th floor completed the picture. The conversations became increasingly upbeat as folks realized that a critical mass will soon be reached in the Downtown Miami and Brickell neighborhoods that will create the tipping point to attract the work and live group to move in and stay.
Somehow, the center of gravity for all of Miami moved slightly west from South Beach last night toward Downtown. Fifty Biscayne is just the beginning! With Loft II, 500 Brickell and The Plaza on Brickell all coming on line in the next several months…Downtown Miami will be the place to be!
For all of us in the real estate industry, I’d like to thank Mr. Perez for having the vision to make these massive investments and for creating a brightly lit future for our city.
Gracias, Senor Perez.
