Ziggurat Coconut Grove is a collection of roughly 19 residences in a low-rise building at 3101 Grand Avenue in the centre of the Grove, by The Allen Morris Company with the Espinosa family, designed by Oppenheim Architecture with interiors by Collarte and landscape by Naturalficial, alongside an office building and a retail paseo. The site was cleared in July 2026. Here is what the buyers who choose it are choosing.
Written by the desk at Miami Dossier from the developer's published material and the public construction record, cross-referenced across several sources, with anything unconfirmed flagged. The desk works in English, Spanish and Portuguese and does not represent the developer. All notes from the desk.
The desk at Miami Dossier covers a small number of Miami buildings closely rather than the whole market lightly. Ziggurat is one the desk is asked about every week, and this note is compiled from the developer's published material and the public record rather than from a brochure summary. It is the list of reasons buyers give when they choose this building, in the order we hear them, with the facts behind each one.
Published counts sit at 18 or 19 residences in a three-to-four-storey building. That is not a condominium tower; it is a handful of houses stacked on a village corner, and it is the reason the desk at Miami Dossier reads Ziggurat as the smallest serious collection in the Grove.
Chad Oppenheim's practice designed the stepped, stone-clad form that gives the project its name, with terraces at every level planted so that the building reads as a garden. It is one of the few Miami practices with an international reputation for buildings that sit inside their landscape.
3101 Grand Avenue, at the corner of Grand and Matilda, is in the walkable heart of Coconut Grove: cafes, the Michelin-starred restaurants, galleries, Kirk Munroe Park across the street, and the waterfront parks a few minutes on foot. Brickell, Coral Gables and the airport are a short drive.

The published plans run from two to five bedrooms, reported between roughly 1,250 and more than 5,000 square feet, with ceilings up to roughly 11 feet and terraces at every level.
A rooftop with a resort pool, a hydrotherapy circuit, a chef's grilling station, private cabanas and lounges, for roughly 19 households.
The ground floor is an open-air paseo of roughly 45,000 square feet of retail: a restaurant and rooftop lounge by a local Michelin-starred chef on the office building, an artisanal cafe, a gourmet market and ateliers, opening onto a central courtyard.
Collarte Interiors, the Miami studio, designed the residences with a warm, crafted palette. Andres Arcila's Naturalficial designed the landscape, which on this building is the facade.
The project carries a construction loan reported at roughly 138 million dollars, closed in late 2025. Demolition of the former site was completed in July 2026 and site work follows. Completion is guided for late 2027 to early 2028.
Public reporting put the residences at roughly 65% sold before groundbreaking and describes the collection as nearly sold out by mid-2026. In a building of roughly 19, the remaining list is short.
Allen Morris has developed in Florida since 1958 with more than 90 completed projects, and is also the developer of Ponce Park Residences in Coral Gables. The desk at Miami Dossier holds the delivery history and shares it on request.
The current availability, which is a short list, the floor plans by residence and the deposit schedule, obtained directly from the sales team on request, together with our own floor plan analysis and an honest comparison against Four Seasons Coconut Grove and the Grove's delivered buildings. Ask for it and it arrives from the desk at Miami Dossier the same day, usually by WhatsApp, with our opinion attached, whether that opinion is Ziggurat or another building.

Most of the people who ask the desk at Miami Dossier about Ziggurat Coconut Grove are not only choosing a building. They are moving to Miami from New York, California, London, Bogotá, Mexico City or São Paulo, or adding a Miami position to a portfolio held elsewhere, and the building question sits inside a larger one: how to buy new construction in Miami, how to hold it, and what changes when you do.
The desk keeps short notes on the parts that come up every week: how buying preconstruction in Miami actually works, what a normal deposit schedule looks like, whether you need to be in Miami to buy, whether a foreign buyer can get a mortgage, what taxes a foreign buyer pays on a Miami condo, and the Florida state income tax question for anyone relocating from a high-tax state. For buyers arriving from a specific market there are notes for Bogotá, Mexico City and London, and a broader one on why so many wealthy families are moving to Miami.
Read the ones that apply, then bring the rest to the desk at Miami Dossier. It usually takes one conversation to see how Ziggurat Coconut Grove fits the move, or whether another building fits it better.
This note is general information for people considering Miami, written by a real estate desk, not by a law or accounting firm. Nothing here is legal, tax, immigration or investment advice, and it is not a substitute for advice on your own circumstances. Rules change, treaties differ by country, and the right answer for one family is the wrong answer for another.
Speak with your own attorney and CPA before you commit to anything. If you do not have one who works with international buyers in Florida, the desk is glad to recommend an attorney, a CPA or an adviser suited to your situation, and to sit in the first conversation so that nothing is lost in translation.
Structure, financing, currency, timing, the right building and the right line: the desk works through these questions with international buyers every week, and the answer is nearly always that it can be done, in order, without surprises. If Miami is on your mind, as a home or as an allocation, we would be glad to share what we are seeing, privately, and to start with the question this note did not answer.
Nobody chooses Ziggurat Coconut Grove in isolation. The desk at Miami Dossier weighs it against Four Seasons Private Residences Coconut Grove, and sets it beside every other building in Coconut Grove on the Coconut Grove cluster. If the question underneath yours is really what a brand is obliged to do after closing, start there instead.
