Highlight quotes:

Erick Collazo

On how Metropica is changing the area’s landscape, bringing an urban feel to a suburban community, and why that is important to Sunrise... 

“Similar to what's happened around the United States, typically suburban markets start as bedroom communities, as Sunrise did in the 70s and 80s. Then it evolved in the 90s to become a destination, between the construction of the Sawgrass Mills project and the BB&T Center across the street. Later, it became a job center in the 2000s by attracting tenants like HBO Latin America, American Express, and Ford.

“It afforded us the opportunity to actually bring in an urban landscape that would allow us to create an urban center for the Western portions of Broward County. So our objective in creating Metropica as a downtown for the Western portion of Broward County gave us the opportunity to go denser, to create height in the project, and to create socialization centers, not unlike what you're seeing along the eastern seaboard of South Florida.”

On Metropica’s multi-use residences, facilities, and location

“Our focus is creating socialization in those areas where people that work or live in the same complex have the ability to go down and have a coffee or have dinner and meet with friends. They can also go see a hockey game or a concert across the street to the BB&T Center, and, of course, we have Sawgrass next to us with plenty of retail. So the retail will still be successful as the pandemic leaves and there will still be more demand for socialization-type activities out of the project.

“Between Dade County, Broward County, and Palm Beach County we are truly the 50-yard line. We're the midfield of the entire urban core of South Florida. So that also has attracted new residents to the marketplace that were unaware of the infrastructure and the facilities that this marketplace offered.”

Danielle Cohen Lima

On how Sunrise business-friendly model and how it has been successful in drawing top-flite organizations

“I focus on economic development and redevelopment and attracting new businesses [to Sunrise] on a daily basis. Having direct access to I-75, I-595, and Florida’s Turnpike, makes Sunrise an attractive place for businesses to come because they know that they can [tap into] that pool of over 2.7 million workers in the region. Also, in terms of our location, we have a 650-acre international corporate park right in the heart of our business and entertainment district. And with having that corporate park, we already have all the infrastructure in place for businesses to come here.

“We need to be able to be competitive when it comes to incentives and we are. We find very creative ways to incentivize companies to come here, and we customize those incentives based on what that company is bringing to the city.”

On the continuing growth of Sunrise

“Our original neighborhoods in Sunrise are the eastern portion of the city, and we completed a master plan for that particular area of the city about two years ago. That's when I was brought in, to implement some of the recommendations of that master plan. The City has already invested about $30 million in making improvements to the original neighborhoods which really have so much character and a small-town feel.”

Sunrise in a nutshell

“Sunrise is a great location with an amazing quality of life. It's a financially stable city with great people and a close-knit community. It’s a great place to live, work, and play.”

Kate C. Goldman

On Baptist Health’s commitment to Sunrise

"We have an existing patient location in Sunrise, having been there for 10 years now. It's an amazing municipality, impeccably run, with beautiful parks. We are a non-profit hospital organization. Years ago, we made the commitment to develop a relationship with the City and its residents. It has been a wonderful partnership for Baptist Health and we are looking to continue growing that.”

We really do take pride in caring for the Sunrise community; it is a really tremendous community. I spent a lot of my time involved with the Chamber of Commerce in Sunrise which is phenomenal as well and really supports its businesses. I’ve spent some time working with the Mayor [Michael Ryan] and his Advisory Council. They are people that really care about their constituents and the residents of the City of Sunrise. They do a tremendous job making sure that the residents and the community have what they need to be happy, healthy, and secure.”

On how Baptist Health has evolved its healthcare services in Sunrise and beyond to meet the needs of communities

“We not only have primary care physicians, but we also have pediatrics, internal medicine, emergency medicine, as well as even mental and behavioral health. We have different modalities that people can access, including nutrition services, through our care on-demand app. Our website is also extraordinarily comprehensive and explains all of the services that we provide to the South Florida community at large.”

Effective immediately, individuals can designate up to six months of their rental payments towards the purchase of a new residence at One Metropica.

“As the many new residents moving into Metropica continue to tell us, there is no other luxury condominium that compares with Metropica in Broward’s western corridor. Because of that we are seeing demand from seasonal visitors, particularly those from the northeast,” said Joseph Kavana, CEO of Metropica Development. “Of course the program is available to anyone, but we are confident that once they stay with us and experience what the many residents who are now part of this spectacular setting are telling us, they will not want to leave! It’s extremely compelling to apply 100% of rental payments of up to six months to the purchase price.”

The post One Metropica Residences, Design by YOO, Launches “Try Before You Buy” Program appeared first on Haute Residence by Haute Living.

Metropica’s initial residential offering, ONE Metropica Residences, design by YOO, offers something no other luxury high-rise in the area can: all the amenities and benefits of a high-end condominium, coupled with access to nature and space. In short, the best-of-all-worlds.

When developer Joseph Kavana initially conceived Metropica, his goal was to build a multi-use community -- one that would serve as a departure from the traditional mixed-use enclave.

“Working with world-renowned architect Chad Oppenheim on the masterplan for Metropica, our focus was on the residential component,” said Kavana, Chief Executive Officer of Metropica Development, LLC. “We knew we were in an evolving area, one with significant space -- as well as the beauty of the Everglades nearby. We wanted our residents to experience city-center living, but still enjoy the suburban experience. We’re so proud to have achieved that.”

The key to the genius of Metropica was the work by its visionaries to hand-pick the very best elements of many projects around the world and meld them together to create a one-of-a-kind community.

As the COVID-19 pandemic hit, Metropica found itself in a most unusual situation -- in that the rush by prospective homebuyers to secure a living experience close to nature is now also included in the project’s first residential high-rise.

“Prospective buyers instantly realized that when they stepped out onto a unit’s balcony, there were expansive view corridors…or when they walked out of the building, there was ample space, not tightly-constructed buildings,” added Kavana. “We are able to offer what would not be remotely possible in a typical urban location.”

The response to this distinct niche among homebuyers has been overwhelming, with the building now more than 75% sold. Extremely compelling promotional incentives are additionally being offered through the end of September.

Buyers have a choice of three options:

• A closing credit equal to 2.5% (developer fees and closing incidentals are waived) and six months of HOA paid by the developer
• A second parking space, valued at $35,000
• A closing credit equal to 2.5% (developer fees and closing incidentals are waived) and a large storage unit in the building, valued at $15,000

From the onset of configuring Metropica’s masterplan, Kavana focused on three key pillars – happiness, nature and wellness – the most important of which was happiness. The world is stressful, and he wanted to not only create a sense of place, but a sense of joy.

In an age of unprecedented tension due to the pandemic, ONE Metropica Residences, design by YOO is a retreat from today’s stressors.

An expansive amenities deck -- inclusive of a pool, large gym, two tennis courts, and more -- affords residents a truly unique wellness component.

Said Kavana, “Chad Oppenheim of Oppenheim Architecture + Design is globally recognized for socially and environmentally conscious architecture, and he’s a very selective individual. If he doesn’t believe in a project, he will politely pass. From the onset, we have looked to Chad to set the tone, especially with our initial residential offering.”

With Oppenheim collaborating with London-based YOO Design Studio, the globally acclaimed firm founded by John Hitchcox and one of the world’s most celebrated designer Philippe Starck, the results have surpassed all expectations.

“We knew that ONE Metropica Residences would be truly special,” concluded Kavana. “The coronavirus pandemic has simply brought to light the crucial need for a home to be a true respite…a place where we can feel both safe and fulfilled. The fact that we have surpassed this expectation brings tremendous satisfaction to our entire team.”
