Demolition has begun at Biscayne 27 (the former Ion Edgewater site) in Edgewater. Workers have begun clearing the land and are in the process of demolishing all of the houses on the site. Most of the houses were built in the 1920's and were currently used as multi-unit apartment rentals.
Located at 2701 Biscayne Boulevard, Biscayne 27 will be 8 stories and have 330 apartment units. There will also be 9,537 of retail space, 396 parking spaces and courtyard with pool. The building was designed by Corwil Architects.
The 2.2 acre site was purchased by Richman Group for $30 million.
Construction on Biscayne 27 should begin before the end of the year.
