Sunny Isles Muse Tower will Customize Sculptures for Each Condo Buyer

Sunny Isles Muse Tower will Customize Sculptures for Each Condo Buyer

PMG just unveiled Muse. As almost expected this new Sunny Isles project will be full or art in keeping up with the new trend of South Florida developers who are finding unique ways to incorporate art into their luxury condo projects. What is surprisingly new is thateach unit’s sculpture will be unique to that particular home because the artist Helidon Xhixha will meet with each prospective buyer personally to determine what the future resident’s tastes are. Xhixha is an Albanian-born artist whose light-reflecting steel sculptures have been showcased at Art Miami and Art Basel’s Swiss fair.

Architect Carlos Ott who also designed other PMG’s current projects including Echo Aventura, Echo Brickell, and Sage Beach formulated the super skinny Muse Tower Design. Muse is a 47 story, 649 foot tall, super skinny at only 60 feet wide, twisting tower smooshed in on 100 feet of oceanfront between neighboring condo towers Jade Ocean and Ocean 4. Muse Towermaxes out on allowable FAA height along with the Porsche Design Tower and Mansions at Acqualina, two other luxury projects in Sunny Isles Beach. Gil Dezer, a major developer in Sunny Isles Beach, obtained the first clearance to build to a height of 649 feet with the Porsche Design Tower.

With oceanfront parcels all but gone, the ultra-sleek 47-story, 68-unit tower will be shoehorned into a less than one-acre site with 100 feet of oceanfront at 17141 Collins Ave. With setbacks, the building will be just 60 feet wide facing the ocean. The skyscraper will feature spacious residences starting at 2,360 square feet, and will include two full-floor penthouses spanning more than 5,800 square feet with five bedrooms and 4 1/2 baths.

“From a staging point of view, it’s going to be difficult to put up: a tall, narrow building with a twist and cantilevers,’’ Maloney said. Maloney said PMG was approached to joint venture the project by co-developer S2 Development of Aventura, which controlled the land. S2 Development is headed by CEO J. Claudio Stivelman and president Marc D. Schmulian.

Maloney, a tall and lean triathlete, has revealed a penchant for tall, lean buildings. In April 2013, PMG announced plans for Echo Brickell, a luxury condominium at 1451 Brickell Ave. that will rise about 60 stories. He made headlines in Manhattan with plans to build a tall, thin skyscraper at 107 W. 57th St., along one of midtown Manhattan’s major east-west streets.

Muse is expected to begin taking reservations soon and to break ground in June. The blended price for the units will be $1,300 a square foot, with lower floors averaging less than $1,000 a square foot and upper floors reaching $2,000 a square foot. The developer  require 50 percent deposits from buyers, with 20 percent due at contract signing, 10 percent at groundbreaking, and 20 percent when the building is topped off.

Most floors will have two units, one on the east, with a thick support core, and one on the west. “When you go high, you end up with a thick core, with heavy shear walls to support the building,’’ Maloney said. * Notes taken from the Miami Herald.
