Highlight quotes from the webinar:

Paulie Hankin: " Miami has become a 12-month city... Our location at 300 Biscayne Boulevard Way is the last parcel of water-side land in Miami in the downtown Brickell corridor, so, it sets us apart. We have almost 500 linear feet of Marina built into the programming of the building. There is direct access to the ocean with no bridges, and we have an amazing butler service that will provide exclusive private yacht services that will take you directly to enjoy our Beach Club and other amenities throughout the city... We are over 60% sold, which is an amazing feat to accomplish. As ownership would say, we are not building with the brand, but rather a brand that is building a skyrise in Miami... During the pandemic, everyone has been looking for outdoor activities, and we are extremely well-positioned with our amenities, indoor and outdoor pools, beach access, and our magnificent marina. Our residents can arrive in style by land or sea... We are on the 30th floor of construction. We will deliver the building at the end of 2022, with finished and move-in ready residences. The pace of construction has continued through the pandemic on schedule."

Ralph Navarro: "Honoring the first responders was a very humbling experience. How they took on the seriousness of risking their lives, it was great to hear their commitment to being involved and not be afraid. It was a great experience for us to welcome them and give them a day on the water. It was very special for us… Like most businesses in Miami, we got a little nervous when the pandemic started. We still have a lot of work to do. This week we are celebrating the Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show. A lot of clients are coming to town, and we have been showing boats all day at FLIBS. We are excited about everything that is going on and that people are coming back to the water realizing that it’s a safe environment. Our issue now is a lack of inventory. When something becomes available, it flies... Aston Martin Residences is doing an amazing job. I can't wait for the building to be finished. I saw the finishes in the showroom and I can tell you this building is special. It will make the Miami skyline the most beautiful one ever... Miami is the number one yachting city in the world.”

The Yacht Guy: "I'm always down in Florida two or three times a year, and I'm always on a boat. There are not too many cities in the world where you can take the boat and move it around and end up in different locations. Great places like Monaco, you dock and then walk. But with Miami, there are so many places on the coast, Miami Beach. If you're going to live the yacht life, Miami is the place to do it… I'm working on purchasing a yacht. I have one in mind that I'm talking to a few friends. It's a big project going on, so we will be doing "The Yacht Guy Live" from my own yacht. To be able to show people the dream come to fruition is the next step for me... Being on the water for me, there is nothing like it. Tranquility at its best... I look forward to doing this in person next year [at Aston Martin Residences]."

The 66-story sail-shaped tower is about to receive the first Aston Martin customer DBX to cross the Atlantic Ocean to the Americas. During the webinar, Hankin announced the luxury SUV had just finished its journey to the US.

On the heels of the Monaco Yacht Show, undeniably the glitziest event of the yachting calendar, South Floridians have the exclusive opportunity to experience a taste of the Côte d’Azur in their own backyard with Monaco Yacht Club & Residences, a new luxury Bayfront condominium located in Miami Beach.

Situated on one of the last remaining waterfront properties in the area, Monaco Yacht Club & Residences are being developed by Optimum Development USA in collaboration with two of the biggest names in design, interior designer Piero Lissoni and international architecture firm Arquitectonica.

The nautically-themed, 12-story boutique project features 39 exquisite waterfront residences that celebrate the very best of urban waterfront living. World-renowned Italian interior designer Piero Lissoni meticulously curated each of the unit interiors with precise attention to detail inclusive of the refined Italian-made fixtures and finishes throughout, as well as the lobby and the premier “Resident’s Lounge” featuring a library and breakfast bar for leisurely waterfront dining.

Elegant private elevators will lead to sophisticated one to four-bedroom residences ranging in size from 918 to nearly 5,000 square feet. Featuring floor-to-ceiling glass windows with stunning direct water views, each of the signature modern units will be delivered fully-finished with European custom wood flooring curated by Piero Lissoni. Primed for indoor/outdoor living and entertaining, the residences feature oversized wraparound terraces with finished floors and ceilings that offer sweeping views of Biscayne Bay, the Atlantic Ocean, and the Miami skyline.

A limited collection of two impressive penthouses will offer expansive living areas, including private terraces with summer kitchens, starting at 2,888 square feet.

Punctuating the style and sophistication of the project are Boffi contemporary Italian kitchens with stone countertops, 10-11-foot high ceilings throughout, large walk-in closets, pre-wired for Home Automation systems with the latest “Smart Building” technology. Imported Italian marble flooring, spacious tubs and frameless, glass-enclosed rainfall showers with designer faucets add to the premium bathroom interiors.

Offering the best of a yachtsman’s lifestyle, Monaco Yacht Club & Residences features a 12 slip marina available exclusively to residents, as well as a yachting concierge available for maintenance needs, yacht charters or sailing and fishing excursions for the day to the Bahamas, the Florida Keys or to enjoy the Atlantic Ocean and the best of South Florida’s coastal living. Additional waterfront amenities include paddle boarding, kayaking and more.

A myriad of additional first-class amenities includes a breathtaking rooftop terrace with panoramic views of the Miami skyline featuring a pool with poolside chaise lounge chairs, Jacuzzi and shaded lounge areas with a grill for entertaining, as well as a state-of-the-art fitness center overlooking Biscayne Bay.

Monaco Yacht Club & Residences is slated to break ground in October, when it will also open its official sales gallery. The project is scheduled for completion in 2021.

With exclusive sales and marketing handled by Fortune Development Sales, Monaco Yacht Club & Residences is priced from $1.1 million.  For more information, please call 305.749.9126 or visit: https://monacoyachtclubresidences.com/.
