South Beach, Mid-Beach and North Beach: the few new buildings on the island, each read from the developer’s documents by an independent desk.
The read continues below ↓
Miami Beach builds little that is new, because the island is built and its historic districts protect what stands. What is built is on the sites the code allows, and each is a different answer: a reborn hotel on Collins, an oceanfront site in Mid-Beach, a block in North Beach. A buyer looking for new on the Beach is choosing among a handful of buildings, not a category.
You will be speaking with the desk in Miami Beach, not a call centre. Tell us briefly what you have in mind and we reply personally within 24 hours, usually much sooner. On weekends, we are back with you on Monday morning.
The cards above are the buildings. This page says how South Beach, Mid-Beach and North Beach differ, what the city adds, and what the desk does with a brief for the Beach. Contact the desk at Miami Dossier for the current position on any building we cover.
South Beach is the streets: the historic districts, the restaurants, the life on the pavement, and a new building there is inside an old fabric. Mid-Beach is the oceanfront of the grand hotels and the towers between them, quieter, with the beach as the front garden. North Beach is the quiet end, low buildings, a neighbourhood that is changing block by block, and the new construction there is the first of a generation. The desk covers a building in each.
Miami Beach regulates what may be built and altered in its historic districts, regulates short term rental strictly and by district, and sits on a flood map that runs across the whole island, old and new alike. A buyer of a new building on the Beach reads the developer’s documents and the city’s rules together; the desk reads both.
On the Beach the question is rarely old or new. It is which of the few new, and which of the many old.
Current pricing, availability and deposit schedules are quoted on request for the building in question, the same day. The desk does not say which building is best, because the answer depends on the brief.
The desk at Miami Dossier covers every new building on this page with its own dossier and keeps the current position on each, on request. For a Beach brief it lays the covered buildings against the finished market in the same blocks, says which fit, and where the answer is the coast north of the Beach it says that too.
This is the desk at Miami Dossier, a real estate desk covering the Miami market. It reads the developer’s documents, keeps the current position on every new building it covers, and puts the buildings that fit a brief in front of you the same day.
A private report on the Miami market, sent when there is something worth knowing. No noise, no listings, no pressure.
Received. A note from the desk is on its way. If it has not arrived within a few minutes, please check your spam folder and mark it as not spam, so we can reach you.
Nothing on this page is legal, tax or investment advice, and the desk has no verdict on any building or place. Contact the desk at Miami Dossier and we will go through the buildings that fit, the current position on each and what the next step actually is. Where a question is legal, tax or immigration, we introduce you to advisers who handle that properly rather than answering it ourselves.
