Last year, David Beckham and his wife, Victoria Beckham, purchased a penthouse at One Thousand Museum by Zaha Hadid Architects. That news was soon followed by another soccer star, World Cup champion Paul Pogba, who also purchased a unit at the exoskeleton skyscraper in Downtown Miami.

South Florida real estate has been the hottest destination for the affluent and celebrities of film, TV and sports alike over the past couple of years, but especially since the pandemic started. The captain of Argentina's national team and FC Barcelona is relocating (temporarily or permanently?) to Miami after buying an entire floor at the Regalia condominium in Sunny Isles Beach in Miami-Dade County. The world's third highest-paid athlete reportedly shelled out $7.3 million for the fully-furnished ninth floor unit that includes four bedrooms, four and a half bathrooms, 2,100 square feet of terrace space, and a wine room that holds 1,000 bottles.

In 2020, the iconic, exoskeleton tower had a record-breaking year of sales, with over $100 million in total. Buyers included star athletes and celebrities like David Beckham and Paul Pogba, as well as affluent purchasers from the Northeast and California that have been migrating to Florida and its prime residential destinations, topped by One Thousand Museum.

“While our original timeline for securing an inventory loan was pushed due to travel restrictions that hindered lenders from walking the finished project, we ultimately found the right lender in Cirrus Real Estate Partners,” said Louis Birdman, co-developer of One Thousand Museum. “We are pleased to enter this new chapter and confident in the upcoming sellout of our landmark building.”

“Despite the pandemic, South Florida proved to be a thriving spot for new residents who flocked to Florida from within the United States, and One Thousand Museum was a project that shined,” said Mayi De La Vega, Founder and CEO of One Sotheby’s International Realty, the Exclusive Broker for One Thousand Museum. “The tower had a record-breaking year with $100 million in sales, and 2021 has already started off with more than $35 million in sales, putting us on pace to exceed our 2020 success.”

The combination of tax benefits and a bustling cosmopolitan city that keeps growing in Miami have continued to bring in new residents from around the world. This year alone, One Thousand Museum has closed $35 million in sales, on track to surpass the milestone reached last year.

“We look forward to the commercial growth of One Thousand Museum,” said Tony Tufariello of Cirrus. “We worked to deliver capital quickly to maintain momentum at the property.”

“We have the experience to understand the operating complexity that comes with a high-profile luxury tower such as One Thousand Museum,” added Joseph McDonnell of Cirrus. “We believe that the capital we provided will help the property fulfill its significant potential."

One Thousand Museum – developed by Louis Birdman, Gilberto Bomeny, Kevin Venger, and partners Gregg Covin and Todd Glaser – was officially completed in August 2019, as one of the country’s most anticipated masterpieces.

What’s the current status of the high-end home market?

The high-end is seeing a lot of demand and performing better than other market sectors right now. We have seen a ton of interest of late, and even logged over $100 million in transactions this year.

How has COVID-19 impacted this sector? Which markets are doing relatively well? Which have been impacted the most? How has it played out in towers/condos?

In March when the pandemic hit, there was a migration out of highly dense cities. One Thousand Museum saw immediate interest from states like New York, Connecticut, Illinois and California – some buyers who had been mulling over a home in South Florida and ended up expediting their timelines. While some vacation home shoppers opted for single-family homes over condos, the tower didn’t see any drop-off as its floorplans run upwards of 10K interior square feet, and include the benefits and conveniences of condo living.

What’s the investment outlook for this segment?

Not only is it a buyer’s market right now, but interest rates are historically low. It’s a great time to buy.

Will COVID cause more people to want second homes as a refuge/place to social distance, or will the economic uncertainty caused by COVID make buyers want to sit on cash instead?

Shelter-in-place has made people evaluate how and where they live. And while some have been more cautious and are taking a wait-and-see approach, real estate remains one of the safest investments.

How is the second home market different from the primary home market? What are the similarities?

The primary home market is also performing well, again due to the migration from highly dense cities. South Florida has been a popular destination for second-homes and permanent relocations, not just due to the pandemic, but over the past few years and spurred in part by the SALT tax and overall lifestyle benefits of the area.

What design elements and must-haves do homeowners want and expect?

Buyers right now are craving space, both interior and exterior, and they want either ocean views or access so even while remaining at home, they never feel cooped up.

Factors such as privacy, five-star services and amenities, world-class design and the availability of turn-key homes are key drivers for buyer demand at One Thousand Museum during this time. This full-floor residence offers new options and joins a select few highly-curated furnished homes on the market.

The residence was furnished by Luxury Living Group and designer Hernan Arriaga, featuring a neutral palette that plays perfectly against the use of color. As a "mansion in the sky," it is over 10,000 interior square feet in size, featuring five bedrooms, six and a half bathrooms, a private foyer and living area encased in glass. The residence also comes with its own home gym, media room, and a master "wing."

“We are thrilled that One Thousand Museum’s desirability continues to be recognized across the country, especially as now, more than ever, people are reevaluating where and how they live,” said Louis Birdman, co-developer of One Thousand Museum. “In addition to the flurry of interest from states impacted by the SALT tax, we’re seeing many of our new residents express priority over elements that only South Florida can offer, such as ocean views and access, ease of living, estate-style condos and competitive pricing.”

The debut of this full-floor penthouse follows a string on high-profile sales. Earlier this year, athlete, entrepreneur and global icon David Beckham closed on his own penthouse. That news was followed by World Cup Champion Paul Pogba, who also purchased his own unit at One Thousand Museum.

The exoskeleton-shaped building by the London-based firm that decorates the Miami skyline like no other ever officially opened in August of last year as one of the most anticipated developments worldwide. It has top amenities including an indoor-outdoor 1KM wellness center with state-of-the-art equipment by Techno-Gym, yoga facilities, a Spa with relaxation pods, and private rooms for spa services. The Aquatic Center on the 61st floor features an indoor lap pool. One Thousand Museum's Sky Lounge has ample space for private events and fine dining by the building's culinary team. The building has a dedicated Curator of Hospitality to attend after residents' needs on- and offsite.

Pogba has already amassed accolades on the soccer field, winning the 2018 FIFA World Cup in Russia as part of the French national team. Off the field, a vacation residence in the building seen by millions of eyes that have traveled in and out of Miami is the Adidas brand ambassador's latest acquisition.

“One Thousand Museum is truly like nothing else on the market, and has continued to attract high-profile clientele due to its striking design, unmatched level of safety and security, lifestyle offerings and location in Miami’s epicenter,” said the development team of One Thousand Museum. “We know these factors were integral to Mr. Pogba’s decision, and we look forward to welcoming him and his family home.”

Pogba will have access to amenities that include a Sky Lounge for dining and private events with seasonal menus curated by the buildings culinary team; an on-premise bank vault; nearby private Beach Club, Museum Beach; access to a house car service, 1KM wellness center featuring state-of-the-art equipment by Techno-Gym, a Spa with relaxation pods and private treatment rooms for spa services and the Aquatic Center featuring an indoor lap pool at the 61^st Floor.

The exoskeleton design of One Thousand Museum was officially debuted last August to high expectations and generated even higher reviews. The private rooftop helipad makes One Thousand Museum the only residential building in Miami to have its own airport.

The news of Pogba's purchase comes just weeks after the announcement that David Beckham, who also played for ManU at Old Trafford in his legendary career, bought a full-floor penthouse at the already iconic building that sits on downtown Miami's Biscayne Boulevard.
