Midtown 7 Apartment Building Advances With Construction Permit Filing

·37 Comments

In Midtown Miami, a developer has just applied for a construction permit to build the 31-story Midtown 7 apartment building.

The permit application was submitted on July 17.

According to the permit filing, the development will include 389 multi-family rental units. There will also be 28,877 square feet of retail, 4,445 square feet of office, and three levels of parking.

The hard construction cost is estimated at $126,943,300. Coastal Construction is listed as the contractor.

The numbers on the permit application roughly match an October 2022 utilities agreement with the county, and a September 2022 UDRB filing.

The UDRB filing stated there will be 501 parking spaces.

Arquitectonica is the architect.

AMLI is the developer.

Can’t say the design is the most exciting thing I’ve ever seen, but it will be nice to continue to fill in the Midtown area and add some more retail space

They need to get moving with that giant patch of grass across from it. Walmart sold that property ages ago and I haven’t heard anything.

That’s because it’s an empty grass rectangle and not a true park like Margaret Pace for instance.

Why can’t residents have parks? It raises the property values. That’s not entitlement, it’s smart planning, smart for residents and property values. Let’s all live in a concrete jungle in the heat with no parks, no space, no trees and no air. Sounds amazing! Property values will for sure rise! New developments will for sure go up in a hot, concrete jungle!

We can have parks, and we do have plenty of parks in the Urban Core. The commenter was making fun of the sense of entitlement among some Brickell residents who demand more parks at all costs. They even resort to pretending to care about ancient shark teeth so they can stave off development of badly-needed housing in hopes of getting another park.

Where are all these glorious parks you speak of? Every park here has too much concrete, too many palm trees, and not enough shade. They’re also small. Plenty of other cities have much better park systems than Miami. There are also a lot of cities that have very large parks where you can be fully submersed in nature with no hint of the city. And it’s not like the buildings going up are beautiful works of art. The city planning sucks and needs to get better.

The people who complain about parks (for some reason) have never been to a real world class city. You know with things like parks, libraries, and public transportation.

Seems like the people that complain that Miami doesn’t have parks HAVE been to other cities.

People whose panties aren’t knotted up about WE NEED more parks at any cost, have also been to world cities that have great parks. These people just appreciate HABU, money, and the fact that the public parks need a better governance regime in order to activate and program the parks that Miami already has.

1. Residents do have parks. Baywalks, River walks, and Miami has two National Parks.
2. Property values do not ALWAYS rise incrementally when adding additional parks. There is a law of diminishing returns.
3. IF property values do rise, so do property taxes. Elderly people, and people on fixed incomes will pay more.
4. Building a Parks COST money. Operating a park COSTS money every single year.
5. More often than not, the Highest and Best Use of of land can EARN money for the people every year. MIllions and millions of dollars would be better allocated to improving existing parks through wise investment and programming.

Go drive around the City of Detroit. That is a “Green Space” Utopia.

What do you except from a development with a Target and Marshalls? Yet, you get the same designs for MWC, and that’s supposed to be far more high end.

Those units were the last to sell during development. An investor bought a bulk of those loser units. Then, even he got foreclosed on those genius idea liner units.

if its a walkable area, the developer should have zero issue selling those units. I can see people being hesitant to buy where the liner units are facing a major road or highway, but a pedestrianized street, most people would love to live there. A lot of times the developer can make these units Lofts in order to attract people looking to get a more “house” type feeling

I live in a liner unit in Brickell and am obsessed with it. Unique shallow floor plan and car parked right outside my door is pretty unbeatable

The building looks alright, but why does Architectonica have such a monopoly on designing buildings in Miami? Is it a prerequisite? Are there literally no other architects?

Totally agree and like so many things here I would tie it to corruption. Most of their designs suck so its certainly not due to wanting beautiful buildings. Our corrupt politicians care more about padding their pockets and staying in power than taking care of the people they represent. Go to town halls, make your voice heard, and vote. There are enough new transplants in Miami that we should be able to get the corrupt ones out of office.
