2900 Terrace Approved In Edgewater: ‘Will Create New Category Of Luxury Rentals’

Miami’s Urban Development Review Board voted yesterday to approve the 2900 Terrace residential tower in Edgewater.

Developers Oak Row Equities and LNDMRK Development said in statement that the new building will “will create a new category of luxury rentals,” with large units and high end details that will rival condos.

“We are intentionally delivering oversized units with spacious primary bedrooms, large walk in closets, airy great rooms, and most residences will have a study/den.” said Erik Rutter, Managing Partner of Oak Row.

The 38 story tower is being designed by Arquitectonica.

It is planned to include 324 residential units, and over 500 parking spaces.

Completion of 2900 Terrace is planned for 2026, the developers said yesterday.

Oak Row Equities and LNDMRK recently obtained a site work permit for a nearby 40-story apartment and office tower at 2600 Biscayne.

Oak Row is also co-developing the Wynwood Plaza, a 1 million square foot office, residential, and commercial complex. Completion is scheduled for 2025. A top-off celebration was held earlier this year.

new category? More like an affordable high rises without transportation in an area where infrastructure was designed as a suburb.

Why do you say “without transportation”?

There are dozens of buses that run north and south along Biscayne Blvd 24/7.

The roads have allowed for pedestrians, bicycles, and cars for over 100 years.

no need, with the better bus network you have 24 hour bus service with the 3 (with 15 minute service from 7 to 10) and express service that’ll get you downtown in 15 minutes with the 203

Believe me, no bus or car will get you downtown in 15m at 8:30am. More like 30m. Slightly faster than walking.

With all the new development around the metro mover, there won’t be any reason to go that far. Other trendy spots will emerge closer

The NYC Second Ave subway cost $2.5Billion per mile.
The LA Purple line extension costs $930 million per mile.

IF….WE NEED….a Metromover extension from Flagler to NE 29th Street, which is about 2.5 miles.

Do WE NEED to pay 2.5 x $930,000,000 to do that?
That’s about $23.5 Billion…or $23,500,000,000.

Take $23.5 Billion and divide by the number of riders….let’s be generous….500,000 per year for those WE NEEDS to ride the 2.5 miles from Flagler to this property.

$47,000 per person to pay the set up costs of this “WE NEED or else no one will move to Miami” extension. PLUS the annual operating costs per day…whether you are riding it or not, the trains still run and cost money, and WE NEED to distribute that cost among everyone.

Does it really make sense?

Do WE NEED it if WE HAD to pay for it? or does it only make sense if Daddy buys us that pony?

This math doesn’t is misleading at best, intentionally wrong at worse.

1) The second ave extension in NYC was an underground multi-track subway. Much larger and much higher costs than the metromover. Boring large tunnels under a city is expensive.

2) The metromover already goes to 15th street. The extension wouldn’t need to start from Flager. ~1 mile not 2.5

The math still sucks…fuck walk or uber or stay home and watch high school volleyball on ESPN2 because nobody outside your hipster circlejerk of Brickellites wants to pay what its costs to expand the beer can bumbus!

Here’s an idea… stop complaining and buy a car (certainly enough parking has been built to accommodate). If you don’t want to buy a car, then walk, bike, or ride share. Never seen this many people complain about walking a mile or 2 🤦🏻‍♂️. Here’s the best part before everyone complains about the cost of buying the car… if you lease that car then you can pay for it entirely through ubering a few times a week when you’re bored or otherwise would be out spending money on beer. You can lease a reliable Toyota Carolla for under $200/mo with no down payment (swap a lease). If you can’t make more than $200/mo to pay for that car, you should consider living in a different city.

2.5 times 1B is 2.5B not $25B. Sooo $4700 per person not 47K. Your entire logic chain is broken. 😆

learn basic math first if you want to appear smart.

2.5 times $0.93 billion is $2.3 billion, not $23.5 billion lmao…you have to be a troll

No need, there is already a service proposed on the existing FEC tracks with a greater capacity and speed. Of course, you wouldn’t like it because it won’t be your free electric beer can, and you would have to walk an extra five minutes.

Anon

The proposal for the FEC is a suburban train with leadways of at least 30m. Add to that the fact that the FEC line is plagued with accidents that disrupt schedules because it is not grade-segregated. Not exactly convenient.

I agree. I think running the metro mover above the existing brightline tracks is best. No flyovers on nobody’s business and no disruption to traffic

Is “new category of luxury rentals” a new category of B.S. buzzwords to sell another box?

someonethatknows
17 days ago

just to remind you, every dwelling dating back to the pyramids is a 4 wall box with different exterior articulation. Let’s not pretend anyone has done anything new in the last 3,000 years unless you live in a circus. The biggest difference between luxury and not luxury is unit size and amenities. Not much to do with the angularity of the building

how did it get approved with zero liner units?

Anonymous

Read the code….. There is a waiver allowed to eliminate the liners if they provide an art/glass treatment that’s approved by UDRB…..

so as long as UDRB thinks a cheap screening/mural is ‘good enough’..it will get approved? sounds very subjective to me and is prone to kickbacks/bribes

The UDRB board is appointed by the commission. If you don’t like the results then talk to your commissioners instead of whining of blogs that will achieve nothing. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Hate to applaud more unaffordable housing in Miami, but construction like this sure makes me justify raising rent on a condo I own beyond what I could get a few years ago. It’s the Los Angeles-ization of Miami.
