June 2, 20223 yr Author rats are running wild and the ny population is moving to the sixth boro aka se fla en masse — so the crotchty murdoch tool cuoz goes off on it: Listen up, New York — Florida sucks, and you’ll all be back in five years By Steve Cuozzo June 1, 2022 5:08pm Updated Will the last New Yorker leaving for Florida turn out the lights? As The Post reported, a record 61,728 New York State residents fled to the Sunshine Statelast year, a number likely to rise in 2022. Lower taxes! Schools without masks! No shoebox-size apartments that cost more to rent than it took to build Hudson Yards! You’ll all be sorry. As Jason Mudrick, head of Madison Avenue-based Mudrick Capital Management, put it, “The main problem with moving to Florida is that you have to live in Florida.” more nonsense here: https://nypost.com/2022/06/01/what-every-new-yorker-moving-to-florida-should-know/
June 8, 20223 yr WEST PALM BEACH DEVELOPMENT THREAD West Palm Beach is booming, especially with the shift of financial and hedge fund jobs from New York to South Florida during the Pandemic. Even though the City is within the Miami metropolitan area I felt like the growth here deserved it's own thread. I wanted to share some recent developments under construction and recent proposals. First up is the new tallest building in Palm Beach County. One West Palm - Under Construction Designed by Miami firm Arquitectonica, One West Palm is one of billionaire Jeff Greene's projects. The 30 story, mixed-use towers will contain 328 apartments, a 200 key hotel, 200,000 SF of office over ground floor retail and 7 stories of parking. The towers topped out earlier this spring and window installation is underway. Edited June 8, 20223 yr by Ginger Planner
June 8, 20223 yr One Flagler - Under Construction Up next is the 25 story One Flagler being developed by Related (Hudson Yards Development in NYC). The tower will include 227,000 SF of office and repurpose the old grecian temple styled First Church of Christ building. It broke ground earlier this year and is expected to open in 2024. Edited June 8, 20223 yr by Ginger Planner
June 8, 20223 yr 575 Rosemary - Under Construction This 21 story mixed use tower is being built in the heart of The Square, West Palm Beach's entertainment development (think Easton with palm trees and mediterranean architecture). It will contain 364 apartments (85% high-end luxury and 15% workforce). It broke ground earlier this year and is expected to open in late 2023. It is another project from Related. Edited June 8, 20223 yr by Ginger Planner
June 8, 20223 yr Forte - Approved & Funded Forte is a 24-story, high-end condo tower on the southern edge of downtown. Each floor only has two units with the top pent houses taking an entire floor. It is already 70% sold and commands some of the the highest residential condo prices in Palm Beach County starting at over $6 million for a condo between 4000SF. It is in the pre-construction phase and is expected to be completed in 2024. Edited June 8, 20223 yr by Ginger Planner
June 9, 20223 yr Flagler Towers - Approved Twin, mission revival/Mediterranean inspired towers rising 28 stories next to the Forte development near downtown West Palm Beach. These luxury condos start at $10 million with the multi-storied penthouse expected to go for $70 million. If it sells at that price point it will break records for Palm Beach County. The architects are the same ones that designed 5 Central Park West and 220 Central Park South in NYC. Expected completion in 2026. Edited June 9, 20223 yr by Ginger Planner
June 9, 20223 yr Datura Hotel + Residences - Approved This recently approved 20-story mixed-use tower in downtown West Palm Beach will bring 180 apartments, 275 parking spaces, and a 132 room boutique hotel across the street from the Brightline train station.

June 9, 20223 yr A couple of projects that wrapped up late last year, earlier this year. 360 Rosemary - Completed late 2021 The 20-story tower has 300,000 SF of commercial space. Goldman Sachs claimed a large portion of the tower for 350 workers they moved from NYC earlier this year and are expecting to relocate more in the near future. It is one of the new high-rises attracting major financial firms to WPB with the end goal of establishing the City as "Wall Street South". The ground floor will contain multiple restaurants including a second location of Manhattan's Harry's Stakehouse.
June 9, 20223 yr Bristol Condominiums - Completed late 2021 24-story condo tower built on the intercostal waterway separating West Palm from Palm Beach Island. Completed last year, the condos range from $10-million to an almost $30-million penthouse.

June 10, 20223 yr Author yes its great to see all this i had no idea — please keep them coming and with updates and pix when you can. it does make me think about like how wise is it to put so much money and effort into developing the waterfront with global warming sea levels rising and hurricanes and the like. not just florida, but up and down the atlantic coast. i dk, just a worry we all have to live with i guess.

Yeah my exact thought. I guess when you are selling units for $10 million+ your money is recouped pretty quick and it isn’t the developers problem anymore. Saw an article yesterday that said the caps are melting even faster than originally thought.
June 10, 20223 yr Author the thing is, inevitably we all pay when a big storm hits and the feds have to come in with expensive rescue, cleanup and remediation money. but back to the thread, telooking them over i am surprised that all of these developments are quite handsome. no clunkers!
June 29, 20222 yr West Palm Beach is studying a proposal for a 13 mile east/west light rail line to connect downtown to the communities to the west of I-95. We already have high(er) speed rail - Brightline, and commuter rail linking the entire Miami metro north/south but there are not a lot of good transit options going east/west. The proposal's design is based off of similar light rail expansions in Austin, Portland, Phoenix, and SLC. The train would run on dedicated tracks operated from travel lanes and include raised platforms for boarding. The rough order magnitude cost is approximately $850M.
June 29, 20222 yr Author i wonder why they dont loop it back around across forest hill? i guess that’s another $850M!

The second tower will rise 54 stories or 648 feet, according to the construction permit filing. That is identical in height to the first tower now under construction. Tower 2 will include 468 residential units, and 6975 square feet of retail.

January 2, 20232 yr Author now this one right here is really interesting --- 1428 brickell ave (@sw 15th rd) 861'/75 fl World’s First Solar-Powered Residential Skyscraper Planned in Brickell Plans have been announced for a 70-story residential tower called The Residences at 1428 Brickell that will be be partially powered by solar panels into the building’s glass. It will be the first residential high-rise in the world partially powered by the sun, the developer says. The Residences at 1428 Brickell will also be one of the tallest building’s in the area, with an amenity level at 860 feet above ground. On the west side of the tower, a nearly 20,000-square-foot “solar backbone” is planned, with 500 photovoltaic-integrated windows. The lifespan of the solar panels will match the windows, the developer said. The system will be capable of generating 170 megawatts of solar energy per year, which would result in the reduction of approximately 4,700 tons of CO2 and the use of 3,000 barrels less of oil. A total of 189 residential units are planned, with prices ranging from $2 million to over $40 million. Ceiling heights will start at 11 feet, with penthouse units ranging from 12 to 30 feet. There will be eight amenity levels totaling 80,000 square feet, including five amenity levels at the top of the tower and a rooftop pool and atrium on Level 70. Another pool will be located on level 7, along with guest suites. Architecture is by ACPV Architects Antonio Citterio Patricia Viel along with Arquitectonica, with interior design also by ACPV. Cosentini Associates is the solar energy consultant. John Moriarty Associates is the contractor. Ytech, Led by CEO Yamal Yidios, is the developer. more: https://www.thenextmiami.com/worlds-first-sun-powered-residential-skyscraper-planned-in-brickell/
