  • Aims to set a new standard with integrated rain gardens, bioswales, drainage wells, and cistern systems

Why it matters: Key Biscayne is one of South Florida’s most unique communities, and this project reinforces its long-term value by combining environmental responsibility, elegant architecture, and neighborhood investment.

The big picture: In addition to ocean-view homes and resort-style amenities, the project will support local infrastructure with drainage upgrades, traffic improvements, and contributions to public spaces—strengthening both quality of life and the tax base.

What’s next: Development kicks off in late 2026. Once complete, it will offer a boutique residential experience with pools, spa, lounges, fitness spaces, and on-site dining, all crafted to meet the demands of modern coastal living.

The bottom line: This new oceanfront project in Key Biscayne promises sustainable luxury with deep community impact—positioning it as a flagship model for future beachfront developments.
