This particular palazzo, at 7825 Atlantic Way, is a three-story number with fourth-floor roof deck, and prices in at $22.5 million. Built in 2016, it hit the market yesterday. The seven bedrooms are spread out over 8,500 square feet of interior space, including two guest suites clustered around a central courtyard. The lowest level and casual living areas look out onto pool, while the main living rooms on the second and the master bedroom on the third both get a good shot of the ocean beyond.

Oolitic limestone is one of the most historic and most interesting building materials used in South Florida and can be seen used heavily in such classic and iconic structures as the Coconut Grove Women's Club, Vizcaya, and the Biscayne Bay Yacht Club. Coral Gables' famous Venetian Pool was originally a coral rock quarry used to build many of the oldest structures in that city. Locally quarried coral rock was even used to give a local flair to particularly unique single-family homes as well (think of the Merrick House in Coral Gables) up through the 1930s, when this house was built. And just like it is today, even back then it was considered a special and unusual material.

The interior is no less magnificent. The low slung facade hides a grand, wood-paneled and vaulted living room, a double-height stair hall, large formal dining room, kitchen, and bedrooms on the second floor, facing a large rear yard. Ornate fireplaces decorate the living and master bedrooms, and a hot pink bathroom in original 1930s tilework, with a graceful arch over the matching tub, is in absolutely pristine condition. Probably the only rather odd aspect of the house is the pool, which is squeezed into the front yard under high privacy foliage to obscure the view. Relocating that would really open things up beautifully.

Although undeniably luxurious, Three Hundred Collins shows a certain economy of form, with simple rectilinear shapes and broad slabs, and an economy of materials, with large expanses of concrete among more expensive materials, align more closely with Juul-Hansens' socialistic beliefs. In an extremely honest but elegant way, the building's tray-like balconies reveal the exact orientation of units within. Although the five-story building contains only nineteen residences, it still has a surprisingly comprehensive amenities list, including a 75-foot rooftop saltwater swimming pool, fitness center, 24-hour doorman, and concierge. The units come wired with the latest smart home technology, 15-foot deep balconies, and private elevators.

The developer, JMH Development, recently confirmed the sale of Penthouse 1, which had a listing price of $6.45 million and was an upgrade from Penthouse 2 by the same buyer. Although the sale price has yet to be revealed, the developer says it is the highest price per square foot sale of a non-waterfront condominium in South Beach.

Observing the construction, even for a town as accustomed to residential buildings shooting up as Miami Beach is, has been a new experience because of just how unique the Ritz-Carlton Residences, Miami Beach is. Yes, with the Ritz-Carlton name it will undoubtedly be luxurious. Yes, it was designed by the extremely talented Piero Lissoni and is his first full-scale architectural project in the United States.

However, the Ritz-Carlton Residences, Miami Beach is an extraordinary case of a radical adaptive reuse of an older and formerly very utilitarian structure, at a significantly large scale. For many years it was a hospital. And although the bones and structure of the complex will essentially be the same, upon completion few who experience it will have any inkling of its former identity. The transformation is truly mind-boggling. Due to that unusual nature of the building, each of the project's 111 condominium apartments comes with a unique floor plan, with enough room left over on the expansive seven-acre site to accommodate 15 single family homes, each designed from the ground up by Lissoni, and Miami-based architecture firm ADD Inc.

Due to that unusual nature of the building, each of the project's 111 condominium apartments comes with a unique floor plan, with enough room left over on the expansive seven-acre site to accommodate 15 single family homes, each designed from the ground up by Lissoni, and Miami-based architecture firm Stantec. (previously known as ADD Inc. a name they always had trouble with, for obvious reasons) Courtyards will nestle between rambling, glassy wings. Tropical greenery will be everywhere. Breezy terraces will look out over a private marina on Miami Beach's secluded Surprise Lake. And the ocean, glimpsed between distant buildings much less intimate and secluded than the Ritz-Carlton, Miami Beach, will shimmer just before the horizon.

Nestled in the dense, jungly heart of the artistic, luxurious enclave of Coconut Grove, Glasshaus will be a low-rise residential building with large units beginning at over 1,000 square feet for a one bedroom unit and topping out at 2,380 square feet for three bedrooms. The design is contemporary yet natural, an aesthetic combination that has been right at home in the Grove since some of Miami's most interesting midcentury modernist architects started experimenting there in the years just before, and after the second world war. Buildings such as the Office in the Grove, the Coconut Grove Public Library, the glass house in Peacock Park, and the Mayfair Hotel, which is literally two blocks away from the future site of GlassHaus in the Grove, come readily to mind.

Amenities include a rooftop pool and summer kitchen (although in Miami 'winter kitchen' is really a much more apt description), private garden, fitness center, and of course walkability to everything else in Coconut Grove. Prices range from $595,000 to $1.2 million. It is being developed by GD.8 and Element Development LLC and designed by Varabyeu Partners.

Penthouse A: $55 Million

The top penthouse at Faena House, the unit spans the full top floor of the building and contains a long rooftop pool above. The unit stretches over 8,000 square feet under air and a full additional 7,000 square feet of exterior space wrapping the entire penthouse in a gigantic interconnected balcony modeled after the Alero of the Argentine country house.

Penthouse B $18 Million

Purchased at the same time as Penthouse A by a single owner, it is thought that billionaire Kenneth Griffin intended to combine the units to create an even more spectacular triplex. However, Griffin decided to relist both penthouses separately on the market. Spreading over a full half of the 15th floor, Penthouse B is an expansive 4,250 square feet, with an additional 2,750 square feet of exterior alero space looking out to the west over the City of Miami Beach and Biscayne Bay.

Penthouse D $33.9 Million

Almost as large as the top penthouse in interior square footage at 7,000 square feet, Penthouse D is considerably less expensive and yet still one of the most costly properties currently on the market. Its wrap-around alero is over 2,000 square feet, and connects all of the units' main rooms.

Apartment 14C $9.5 Million

Sitting at the roofline of many neighboring buildings, like the art deco Versailles tower next door, Apartment 14C captures bay and city views as well as the spectacular sunset over the Everglades in the far distance.

Apartment 7C: $7.2 million

Unit 7C is the most affordable of the bunch, if you use the term 'affordable' loosely, at $7.2 million. With 2,000 square feet of interior space and 1,000 square feet of alero, it has a side but still nice view of the ocean.

Apartment 6A $14.5 Million

It may be on a lower floor, but Apartment 6A is nothing to sneeze at, and priced accordingly. It has about 4,750 of interior square footage, and a few thousand of that signature Faena exterior 'alero' facing the ocean.

Apartment 5B $9.5 Million

At about 2,000 square feet of interior square footage and 1,000 square feet of alero, Apartment 5B has the same luxurious kitchen and bathroom finishes, high ceilings, wide glass walls, and expansive balconies as all the units above it.

Latin music legends and Star Island residents Gloria and Emilio Estefan have used the adorable Floridian chalet at 1 Star Island Drive as a guest house and a high-end rental property for years.

Two years ago, the 8,000 square foot mansion was listed on the market for $40 million; a price that appeared a bit high even by the standards of hyper-exclusive Star Island. Since then, even though the listing price has been only slightly adjusted, to $37 million, it is much more in line with the ever-loftier prices that Star Island is now commanding. The Floridian chalet is in fact the least expensive available listing on the island.

The property comes with 1.25 acres of land, 240 linear feet of water frontage, a four-bedroom villa with verandas, a 3-bedroom guest house, and a pool. 1 Star Island Drive can also be rented for $85,000 a month. Jill Eber and Jill Hertzberg are the brokers.

The over-8,000 square foot interior is encircled with an over-7,000 square feet of exterior balcony that wraps the entire circumference of the unit. You can literally jog laps around the penthouse. Although the unit is primarily on one floor, an oceanfront infinity pool on the roof feels as if it’s floating on top of the world.
