Developer Signs Utilities Deal To Build 1,215 Apartments At Overtown West

The developer planning a massive new Overtown apartment complex has signed an agreement for water and sewer utilities.

The property is where Inter Miami’s soccer stadium was once planned, before it was moved to another site next to the airport.

In May, Miami’s Urban Development Review Board voted 4-0 to recommend approval of a new apartment development on the site.

The new utilities agreement lists the project name as Overtown West.

According to the agreement entered into on November 13, Miami-Dade will supply utilities for the following uses at Overtown West:

  • 1,215 apartments
  • 16,988 square feet of retail

The development is also planned to have 1,798 parking spaces, according to the UDRB filing.

The connection charge is estimated at $1,148,603.79

David Martin signed the agreement on behalf of the developing entity.

0101 Miami Properties LLC, with managing member Miami Beckham United LLC, is the developing entity.

The developer said earlier this year that three phases are planned. Construction of the project’s first phase of approximately 537 units is estimated to get underway in 2025.

The apartments will be a mix of market-rate, workforce and affordable housing.

Terra in partnership with an entity controlled by the Mas family was previously reported to be the developer.

Arquitectonica is the architect.

Overtown is surprisingly going to turn into one of the best locations in Miami. Who would’ve thought!?😱

I like this design a lot actually…its a great scale for these neighborhoods that are close to the urban core but don’t need/want Brickell style high rise development…the only thing that boggles my mind a little bit is the amount of parking…this is 4 blocks away from a metrorail station. Do they really need 1.5 parking spaces per unit?

As long as the garage is hidden, I don’t see a problem with people having ample parking in case they want to have a car. Its all about options, if the traffic is really bad, they can hop on the metro rail

excellent location and the size fits nicely with that neighborhood. Retail space seems kinda small for such a hugh plot.

Just be sure to say the same thing when something like this hits on the LH side of the river. No other building in the area west of the highway is taller than 40ft at the most. I am in favor of this, but things like this should be possible on both sides of the river at this point, not just the Overtown side.

Nice design and nice location! Walking distance to Publix, Target, metrorail, metromover and Brightline. Overtown is winning

There’s also currently development going on right across the street on the other side of 8th St. 8th St will soon be lined with buildings from Biscayne to NW 7th Ave!

Love, love, love….this is how this new neighborhood should be transformed…modern but classy, only mid-rise responsable for street interaction and pedestrian activity, and lot of greenery…Wynwood get a hint! I wish it was made of brick but that would be just too perfect for Miami.

Is brick hurricane proof?

Whether brick, glass, or stucco, it’s all cladding over the same concrete and steel construction.

This is such a beautiful design. Not just because the garage is completely hidden and it has actual good architectural detail, but because encompasses a large area. You’re transforming multiple streets, not just one lot with one building.

This looks so much like many new luxury buildings in NYC.

Specifically in Harlem!! Look at this one, for example, very close to it!

yes but those buildings are stone – here in Miami it’s just painted stucco.

The arches atop the top-level windows bring a refreshing charm to Miami’s architecture. Here’s hoping to see more arches in Downtown and Brickell as well—they add so much more character compared to the monotony of square windows everywhere.

One of the best street level designs…hope plans to add more buildings to west side of Miami get redesigned to look like this blend between contemporary and classical

I said it before and I’ll say it again. This is the architecture, scale, and density needed for Riverside/Little Havana.

A beautiful transition between Overtown and Spring Garden!

I thought this is Riverside – not Overtown West – that’s what the city sign says by the river.

It is beyond ridiculous that they would build this on the Overtown side of the river before the Little Havana side which has significantly more demand and connectivity.

I’m just not understanding why the Little Havana side of the river isn’t getting developments like this. There is so much more connectivity to downtown on and off of Flagler. But, so glad to see that empty lot put to good use and the riverside restaurants like Crust and Casablanca should really benefit.

This parcel (and others nearby) are large, ready to build assemblages. Little Havana has many more existing buildings to work around and smaller parcels with various owners. It takes way more time/money to create an assemblage large enough to fit a parking deck there compared to bombed out Overtown.

The main issue holding Little Havana back is that the City doesn’t do anything to promote small-scale development/developers. Why help smaller local developers infill the neighborhood with single-lot walk-ups when you can get more kickback money from large projects by Related Urban, Lennar, Mill Creek, etc

you’re off base saying that second part. None of the owners of land in LH want small scale development. Youre the same guy from last time that mentioned these places. Dude get out of here! you and your group are the worst.

Not true. Little Havana is very friendly to small scale development. If your property is on a main transit artery, you do not have parking requirements, or minimum room sizes.

It’s friendly and rich in culture, but it feels disconnected from the rest of the city in terms of character and appears rundown, lacking significant investment in infrastructure.

The enhancements in Brickell and downtown will reach there next.
However, it would benefit from developers who could enhance street-level conditions and prioritize smart urban planning improvements.

Little Havana has NO main transit arteries. That’s the obvious issue. Wynwood doesn’t either but at least it’s trying to solve the traffic issues.

Maybe we’ll see more development there. More of this and less of that “Brickell West” commieblock, please!

The land in Overtown is still very cheap. Especially compared to the property south and/or west of the Miami River.
