Genting World Resorts Miami Site
The Miami Herald is speculating that the Genting Group might be looking to flip the 14 acres of land they purchased in 2011 for $236 million and even had a potential buyer look at the site.
When the site was purchased, Genting planned to build a mega resort on the edge of Biscayne Bay that would also include a casino. Included in the purchase of the land was the former Miami Herald Building, which took almost a year to completely tear down.
There was even discussion in 2014 with The Related Group to partner on a project, but plans never came to fruition.
The only activity on the site is the renovation of the historic Boulevard Shops on Biscayne Boulevard.
The 80 story proposed condo Liquid Lofts, located at 35 SW 1st St in Downtown Miami has been sent for review to the Urban Development Review Board, according to The Next Miami.
The building designed by architect Charles Sieger has been approved by the FAA at a height of 866 feet.
Under the proposal, Liquid Lofts will have 482 residential units and 311 parking spaces on the .48 acre lot.
The 32 story rental condominium Monarc at Met 3 in Downtown Miami is now completed and accepting leases.
Construction on the building began in December 2012 after years of being an empty lot. The Whole Foods on the ground level has been open since March 2014 while construction continued on the upper levels.

At Miami's Downtown Development Authority meeting last week the issue was raised whether it was feasible to build a tunnel connecting Brickell and Downtown Miami, according to Miami Today.
A study was looked at in 2006, but since the span of 10 years the growth of Brickell and Downtown Miami has changed drastically bringing heavier traffic. The bridge is consistently open during rush hour times in the morning and evenings, which increases traffic and causes people honking their horns in their cars. Construction and new development in the area is only increasing in the next 3-5 years and traffic will continually get worse.
Study to put a tunnel under the Miami River will take a year.
New renderings obtained by The Next Miami show what Riverwalk East Development plan on building on the the former Epic East site at 300 Biscayne Boulevard Way.
Being built on the 1.25 acre lot that was purchased for $125 million will be a 70 story condo that will rise 817 feet. It will include 384 residential units and 561 parking spaces. A lighthouse will be built on the top of the building.
The architects are Revuelta Architects and Boda Miani Anger.
Conditions on being built include widening and extending the public Miami Riverwalk to connect One Miami and Epic Hotel.
