To commemorate the topping off, the development team -- including Matthew Barry, Managing Director of Optimum Asset Management USA; Jamie Telchin, Executive Director of Optimum Asset Management USA; Edgardo Defortuna, President and CEO of Fortune International Group; and Andrew McAllister, Co-President of Moss Construction South Florida -- took to the top of the building, where they popped champagne and posed for photos against a dramatic background of Biscayne Bay and the city skyline. Moss Construction additionally hosted a celebratory lunch for 250 of the company’s construction workers, engineers, and other contractors who have been instrumental in the tower’s rise.

Completion of the internationally-lauded project, which broke ground in February 2020, is on schedule to be delivered at the end of this year.

“Seeing Monaco Yacht Club & Residences come to life and now in its final dimensions is an especially proud moment,” said Matthew Barry, Managing Director of Optimum Asset Management USA. “The global response to the tower has been nothing short of compelling and a testament to its international appeal. Now more so than ever before, buyers are recognizing the importance of having the intimacy of a full-service boutique building combined with the exclusivity of being located on one of the last remaining waterfront properties in the area.”

To be delivered fully-finished, each of the modern unit interiors was meticulously curated with precise attention to detail, inclusive of the refined Italian-made fixtures and finishes, with Arrigoni wide plank wood flooring from Austria.  The design palette of warm whites and rich woods for the lobby and the premier “Resident’s Lounge” -- featuring a library and breakfast bar for leisurely waterfront dining -- evoke a timeless, classic mood reminiscent of a luxurious Côte d’Azur summer resort and responds to the building’s program of luxury living, fun lifestyle, laid-back environment, and relaxed atmosphere.

“Luxury buyers from across the globe have been specifically seeking this project out for its boutique, full-service offering, unparalleled Bayfront location, and the rare opportunity to dock one’s boat in their very own backyard,” said Edgardo Defortuna, President and CEO of Fortune International Group, the project’s exclusive broker. “Combining the spectacular style and extraordinary talents of Piero Lissoni and Bernardo Fort-Brescia with an array of first-class services and amenities, Monaco Yacht Club & Residences celebrate the very best Miami Beach has to offer.”

These are but a handful of the jaw-dropping highlights that define Penthouse II at 57 Ocean, which has just sold for $10.9 million to New York resident Chuck Roberts.

Roberts, who is the Managing Director/Investment with Stifel, The CR Wealth Management Group, was represented by Dina Panchernikov and Ilya Panchernikov with Douglas Elliman.

For Roberts, the draw of 57 Ocean -- an internationally lauded haven on Miami Beach’s Millionaire’s Row, Greater Miami’s most elegant stretch of beachfront on Collins Avenue -- was undeniable, having already been singled-out by buyers worldwide for its Blue Health-oriented lifestyle and ocean-inspired amenities.

“I love this location and being able to live in a brand-new condominium on the Atlantic with so many amenities that are geared toward building a healthier lifestyle, including the calming effect of the ocean and daily strolls along the beach,” said Roberts. “This penthouse offers the best of both worlds as it’s going to have unobstructed views of the water on one side, and the city on the other. The neighborhood is also excellent. It’s more tranquil and family-friendly as it’s primarily comprised of residents versus tourists, yet I’m just a five-minute drive from South Beach.”

“I am honored to represent such a significant sale in one of Miami’s most high-profile addresses,” said Dina Goldentayer Panchernikov. “We know our client will be very happy to call 57 Ocean home.”

Overlooking 220 feet of rare unspoiled waterfront, Penthouse II boasts 5,205 square feet of indoor space and 2,141 square feet of outdoor terraces. The gorgeously appointed residence will feature a grand master bedroom with a unique outdoor spa area overlooking the Atlantic, three en suite bedrooms, five-and-a-half-baths baths, a den, home theater, outdoor summer kitchen, spacious living areas, and a gourmet chef-style kitchen.

Located at 5775 Collins Avenue, between Atlantic Heights and Mid-Beach -- and fashioned by the international award-winning firm Arquitectonica -- 57 Ocean enjoys close proximity to Miami’s chic Bal Harbour Shops, the prestigious La Gorce Country Club and Golf Course, and privileged views across Miami’s most exclusive expanse of beachfront. Slated for completion in 2021, the 18-story, holistic wellness-focused property will equally embrace luxury and nature with its tropically-inspired interiors by Brazilian designer Patricia Anastassiadis. Seventy-one spacious homes will evoke a sense of timelessness and tranquility that only the turquoise waters of the Atlantic can provide.

“Health, wellness, beauty, vitality -- these are the hallmarks of a life well-lived for the world's most sophisticated and discerning real estate buyers -- and nothing embraces these qualities better than well-designed homes nestled along the water,” said Marcelo Kingston, Managing Partner of Multiplan Real Asset Management, developer of 57 Ocean. “We are pleased that this buyer will soon enjoy an enclave of sophisticated families who appreciate the many benefits of living by the sea.”

It is from this inimitable, unspoiled setting and boundless blue vistas that 57 Ocean -- a haven on Miami Beach’s Millionaire’s Row, Greater Miami’s most elegant stretch of beachfront on Collins Avenue -- draws its inspiration.  Fashioned by the international award-winning firm Arquitectonica, every facet of the boutique condominium’s design -- from time-honored, natural materials to the soft, undulating façade and ocean-inspired amenities -- is a celebration of the sea at its most sublime.

In creating 57 Ocean, the project’s visionary, Dr. José Isaac Peres, revered founder of Multiplan Real Estate Asset Management, set out to ensure that the building and its 71 voluminous residences captured the essence of the location, allowing residents to immerse themselves in the serenity that surrounds them.  Here, the infinity of the ocean into the horizon, the fresh air, and the Caribbean waters are appreciated throughout -- with wellness being naturally promoted as an essential to the experience.

Slated for completion in 2021, the prism-shaped property is a glass-clad jewel on the coastline, illuminated by the sun and reflecting the sea and sky beyond.  From avenue to ocean, the architects have mastered a natural flow at ground level, connecting common areas to the beach-side terraces as well as the pool and adjacent dunes.  Enchanting vertical gardens at the base of the building’s façade lead from the porte cochère to the double-height lobby, while walls of glass seamlessly coax the outdoors in.  

Two- to four-bedroom homes, ranging from 1,200 to 3,600+ square feet, are exceedingly comfortable while lavish, merging classic details with contemporary elements such as beautifully-appointed Italian kitchens and baths by Poliform.  Deep terraces shade the glass surfaces that open up to sweeping water views, and balcony edges extend toward the south, as if influenced by wind and wake.  Every aspect has been well-crafted to enhance the connection between interior and exterior:  Wood-like accents and glass further the building's ties to the seascape, and state-of-the-art holistic spa and fitness amenities serve as reminders that physical well-being is a key part of a resident's happiness. 

With such meaningful, artfully-crafted links between nature and self, 57 Ocean is a place where the ocean is an extension of home…and home is the healthiest place to be.
