6000 Indian Creek Condos 800-819-5466 / 6000 Indian Creek New Construction
6000 Indian Creek
Living up to its "dream team" pedigree, 6000 Indian Creek promises to deliver a lifestyle unlike anything previously available on Greater Miami's waterfront. Not surprisingly, the tower will be most distinguished by its unparalleled architecture. Destined for landmark status, the glass-enclosed elliptical tower will rise out of a reflecting pool and fountain surrounding the three-story atrium lobby. With a maximum of 42 exclusive residences, there are no more than two units per floor, each featuring sweeping vistas through walls of glass and from wraparound terraces that become successively larger with each floor. Additionally, as one would expect from Sieger Suarez, the floor-through unit designs are equaled only by the sophistication of the detailing and finishes throughout. This extends to the kitchen and bath cabinetry, fixtures and appliance configurations, which far exceeds anything offered as standard by any other condominium developer.
Standard residential floor plans include half-floor 2-bedroom/2-1/2-bath units of 1,300 square feet and full-floor 3-bedroom/3-1/2-bath units of 2,800 square feet. Plans also call for a grand triplex penthouse of more than 5,600 interior square feet, with over 3,000 square feet of balcony and rooftop area. Equally noteworthy, beyond the singular architecture and interior design, 6000 Indian Creek will offer purchasers an ideal location overlooking the Intracoastal Waterway with the Atlantic Ocean mere steps to the east and the nonstop excitement of South Beach just five minutes away.

Indian Creek
INDIAN CREEK
According to census data in the year 2000 there were 38 housing unites in Indian Creek. This represents a 26.7% growth from 30 in 1990.
Of those housing units, 38 were located in either urbanized areas or urban clusters, and none were located in what is classified as a rural area.
Homeownership rate in Indian Creek is about 100%. Indian Creek's vacancy rate, including seasonal lodging, is about 63.2%. Average household size is 2.43 people.
The majority of houses, apartments or condos in Indian Creek were built after 1965.
Indian Creek has one of the fastest growing Real Estate markets in the continental U.S. Hundreds of thousands of people are drawn to this modern, urban paradise every year. There is something here for just about everyone. Locating an honest, trustworthy Real Estate Company in South Florida is a difficult task. With hundreds of Real Estate Agents and Real Estate Attorneys located throughout the area the task becomes even more daunting. The purchase of a home is the single largest investment anyone can make throughout their lifetime. Although becoming a homeowner is one of the most enjoyable accomplishments a person can achieve, the purchase of a home may be one of the most stressful situations a soon-to-be homeowner will go through. Going through the right Real Estate agent makes all the difference in the world. When you have a realtor that looks out for your interests and treats every client the way they would like to be treated it can dramatically change the home buying process. Whatever your budget might be from a small single family home to a multi-million dollar estate these realtors have what it takes to make your purchase as easy and enjoyable as possible.

Golden Beach
GOLDEN BEACH
Golden Beach is truly a family oriented community complete with a private 1.8-mile beach, a historic Pavilion, three parks -- including John Tweddle Park -- and no commercial activity whatsoever. Both Sunny Isles, Golden Beach and Eastern Shores reap the benefits of small-town living just minutes from big-city amenities. Miami-Dade County Public Schools serve nearly 300,000 students including those from Sunny Isles, Golden Beach and Eastern Shores, which has three schools - Highland Oaks Elementary, Highland Oaks Middle and Dr. Michael Krop Senior High School.
Incorporated in 1929, Golden Beach is actually one of the area's older municipalities. Founded five years earlier as a place to devote to family life, much work had to be done to prepare for development. Islands were dredged, mangrove swamps were drained, and bridges, waterlines and electricity were added. The town survived the 1926 hurricane, but homes did not begin to pop up until 1928. Steel barons from Pittsburgh were some of its early residents. Even First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt was attracted to the tranquility of Golden Beach and often rented a villa there in the 1940s. Gambling tried to get a foothold in the area, but law enforcement and citizen opposition soon put an end to that.
Today, after putting a strangle hold on gambling and commercial activity of any kind, Golden Beach remains the same idyllic sanctuary it was since its incorporation. Yet, progress has exploded around both Golden Beach and Sunny Isles Beach. Both Miami International Airport and Fort Lauderdale International Airport are a mere 20 minutes away. Port Everglades and the sophisticated excitement of Miami Beach are also nearby. Popular attractions include a cruise on Biscayne Bay, a boat ride in the Everglades, a water show at the Seaquarium, not to mention the ballet, Broadway shows and street festivals in Little Havana. Of course, professional sports are second to none with the Florida Panthers, Miami Dolphins, Florida Marlins, world class horse racing , dog racing & Jai Alai and the Miami Heat nearby.

The Blue of Coral Way 800-819-5466 / The Blue New Construction
THE BLUE OF CORAL WAY
This mixed-use project is situated on a two-thirds acre site in Miami, less than half a mile east of the Coral Gables downtown district.
The Blue of Coral Way sits along the Coral Way corridor, which is lined with its mature sea grape trees with their majestic canopies outstretched from the center medium to the sidewalks.
The complex consists of ground floor retail, a series of townhouses, Loft apartment units, ample parking and a apartment Tower.
The ground floor retail base reinforces the existing urban fabric a covered arcade and storefronts stretching along the city sidewalk edge. This arcade provides shelter and comfort to pedestrians as well as general access to the complex, as it also servers as the buildings main entrance.
To the west of the retail are access roads serving as the vehicular entrance/ exit to the complex. These roads provide access to the main drop-off area, and the secure Parking Garage.
The Parking Garage has both public and private zones catering to the need of the occupants and visitor. Immediately above the retail slightly recess from Coral Way sits four levels of two story loft style apartments, these units create a visual barrier for the parking garage located directly behind the units.
The top roof of the retail along the edge of Coral Way is transformed into a landscaped roof level garden creating a green zone between the units and the street below.
THE BLUE OF CORAL WAY TOWN HOMES
Residential scale Town homes are located along the less dense residential street to the south. The six town homes consist of two stories each with a roof garden above and parking access to the garage located to the north.
Each of the homes have their individual entrance gardens and front door, but share the same amenities with the adjoining complex. The Town homes are meant to create a transition space between the dense urban scale of Coral Way and the residential scale of 22 terrace, by having the homes backing into the six floors of parking structure, shielding the garage from the residential street and its neighbors.
THE BLUE OF CORAL WAY LOFTS AND CONDOMINIUMS
The Apartment Tower rises above the parking garage/ loft units with 168 units distributed on 13 floors. The apartments are oriented with views towards the north and the south, along a central double loaded corridor. The design of the residential units provide for generous continuous balcony space along the outside face of every unit, creating a light "secondary skin" on the building generating a strong modern façade with is horizontal lines and railings.
THE BLUE OF CORAL WAY BUILDING FEATURES
The north front face of the tower along Coral Way curves out subtly, thus softening its façade upon the city's urban fabric rising a total of 20 stories. The pool level occurs on the 7th floor where various additional amenities can be found. The pool plaza provides an expansive outdoor recreation area with generous covered areas, a circular wading pool as well as a full size swimming pool and trellised covered BBQ area as well.
The Plaza is also generously landscaped with planting of various scale to soften the edges and enhancing the outdoor experience. The top floor contains the building's mechanical system which is enclosed with decorative architectural treatment of metal louvers, aluminum panels and exposed masonry in its conclusion.

Harbor Islands Condos 800-819-5466 / Harbor Islands New Construction
HARBOR ISLANDS
It's your escape from the world. A beautiful cluster of islands set serenely apart from the crowds and chaos of urban life. A community right on the Intracoastal Waterway in Hollywood, where the rustle of sails replaces the roar of traffic. A magnificent place where the timeless rhythms of the sea are matched by the coolest ocean breezes. This is the kind of place you've been dreaming of. This is Harbor Islands.
As one of the last gated, luxury waterfront communities in Broward east of I-95, Harbor Islands offers discriminating home buyers the opportunity of a lifetime - and a truly remarkable lifestyle. It starts with water. Water everywhere. Stunning waterfront vistas. A planned Mediterranean marina with easy ocean access.
Sparkling lakes and swimming pools. Even a fabulous Clubhouse, championship tennis courts and state-of-the-art fitness center. But what really sets Harbor Islands apart is the spectacular collection of private waterfront estates, executive homes and unique Townhomes created by nationally recognized, award-winning builder Brookman-Fels in conjunction with Avatar Development Corporation. This is the escape you've been waiting for. This is Harbor Islands.
Welcome home...
Prime waterfront property is one of the world's most treasured commodities - but it's availability in South Florida is growing increasingly scarce. That's why Harbor Islands waterfront location is so extraordinary.
But it's only one of the reasons discriminating people choose to live here. The quality of Harbor Islands homes and the vision of Harbor Islands leadership are just as impressive. For almost two decades, the name Brookman-Fels has been synonymous with single-family custom homes of unequalled design excellence, quality craftsmanship, "white glove" customer service, and prime location.
Given this level of leadership, it is not surprising that their homes and communities have won numerous awards for excellence. Brookman-Fels has now become part of Avatar, a NASDAQ listed real estate and resort development company with over $450 million in assets and communities throughout Florida and Arizona.
Together, they are uniquely qualified to bring Harbor Islands to life. Their special combination of skills, resources, financial stability and commitment to exceptional quality means both the residence and the personal service you receive at Harbor Islands will exceed both industry standards and your own high expectations.
Just a hop, skip and a jump from Fort Lauderdale across a small scenic bridge, you're suddenly transported to true island living. The air seems cleaner here.
The streets safer. And the lifestyle more luxurious than you ever imagined. With 192 lushly landscaped acres and countless miles of open sea, Harbor Islands is what Florida living is all about.
The homes at Harbor Islands are as impressive inside as the waterfront vistas are outside. With a commitment to uncompromising quality and an unending attention to detail, every Harbor Islands home combines the graceful charm of the islands with today's most innovative design features.
The four distinct villages at Harbor Islands allow you to choose the home where you'll feel most at home. The stylish patio homes at Edgewater offer a casual elegance that's hard to resist. Harborview's expansive townhomes offer the ambiance of a dockside village.
The spacious executive homes at Harborside, many of which are on the water, are custom-designed and lavishly appointed with swimming pools and designer features. And the private entry at Harbor Estates leads to custom homes, with private boat dock for the epitome in luxurious waterfront living. It's all at Harbor Islands, far from the hectic pace of the city - but close to Aventura and Bal Harbour Shops, Miami and Fort Lauderdale International Airports, and all the fun and excitement of Miami and South Beach.
This is waterfront living the way it was meant to be
This is Harbor Islands.
Harbor Islands Price Range*: Starting from $719,000
*The price range posted will change, I have reviewed the properties and am posting the current range for January 2005 strictly for your information. Please contact me directly for additional and specific pricing information.

• Stained concrete floors in living and bedrooms
• Ceramic tile floors in baths

• Heated swimming pool
• Residents’ club room
• Exquisite industrial architecture

• Lush tropical landscaping
Nola Loft Living
When artists started turning abandoned industrial buildings in New York, Paris and Berlin into living and work spaces, the lofts represented new thinking.
They said "no" to bland, remote suburbs. They tore up the idea of a present floor plan. And they embraced the freedom of lots of space.
NOLA Lofts do the same thing. We give you what the suburbs can't: open space, high ceilings and large windows with tons of natural light. Plus the pop of real city living. Sizzle instead of strip malls. Character instead of cars. Work, Shop, Play - whatever - all in the same neighborhood.
So now, instead of choosing somebody else's "lifestyle," you can make up your own.
Nola Loft Environment
Did you ever imagine your home could let you be a better you?
Since Nola puts you squarely in the heart of Fort Lauderdale, there are no mind-numbing commutes. No hurrying to and from the office, which leaves you with gobs more time for yourself.
Luckily, you have lots of options. You could do your morning yoga at the beach. You're a bike ride away from a romantic comedy and popcorn. Hit Las Olas and gossip over coffee. Or flirt with the not-so-mysterious stranger. Feel your jaw drop over the stunning sculpture at an art festival.

On the ground-level, a wood and glass-faced structure will house a signature restaurant and boutiques.
A concealed, four-level parking garage will serve retail customers and residents.

They are 2 story units, and the Penthouse level features an additional flight of stairs leading to your private rooftop space.

The Residences at the Bath Club Miami Beach 800-819-5466 / The Bath Club Condos
The Residences at The Bath Club will be South Florida’s most prestigious residential address offering only the finest features, services and amenities to a privileged few. Located directly along the Atlantic Ocean on Miami Beach’s famed Millionaire’s Row, just minutes from both South Beach and Bal Harbor, this gated, 5.3 acre enclave will be home to only 107 luxurious tower residences and six ocean-side villas.
Residents will be able to enjoy the historic club facilities of The Bath Club, Miami Beach’s first private social and bathing club, as well as new amenities, including a swimming pool with lap lanes, European-style clay tennis courts, a health club with a spa menu, gorgeous walking gardens throughout and more. Services akin to those of a 5-star hotel, such as a full-service concierge, valet, 24-hour security, and the finest restaurant dining, catering and in-residence dining are all at your command. Privacy, privilege, perfection... they can be yours at The Bath Club.
THE VILLAS
Echoing the Mediterranean-Revival style of the Club’s original architecture, six beachfront villas will be masterfully incorporated along the eastern portion of The Bath Club site. These classically proportioned, four-story homes bespeak of a lifestyle of utmost grace and refinement.
At the entrance, a grand marble foyer introduces the Great Room, which contains one of the home’s three masonry fireplaces. A winding staircase takes you to a fourth-level Observation Room, where the view spans over 500 feet of sand and aquamarine shoreline. Ultimate comfort is the essence of the third-level Master Suite, which includes an enormous Dressing Room as well as a Morning Kitchen.
In the Master Kitchen, appliances such as a Sub-Zero refrigerator, a floor-to-ceiling wine cooler and a Viking stainless steel electric range are sure to meet the needs of the most discriminating gourmet. And, with their doors of glass opening discreetly onto wide, open terraces, the Villas take the fullest possible advantage of their coveted oceanfront location. Imagine – as the morning sun lifts into a pastel sky – greeting the day from your private infinity-edge pool, whose serene colors blend seamlessly with the Atlantic Ocean beyond.
FIVE STAR SERVICES
The understated elegance of the historic Bath Club buildings, built in the heyday of the Roaring 20s and all beautifully restored to their original grandeur, alludes to rich and colorful past when service reigned supreme and every attention was given to even the smallest of life’s pleasures. Only residents, members of The Bath Club (limited to only 200 members), and their guests will be able to enjoy the many extraordinary and sumptuous amenities provided by The Bath Club and its staff. Of course, one of the best amenities is the 540 linear feet of pristine beach along the tropical blue waters of the Atlantic Ocean.
FACILIES AND GROUNDS
Formal ballrooms; Governor’s Lounge and courtyard, and a billiards and game room
Beautiful swimming pool complete with lap lanes and poolside cabanas
Two, European-style clay tennis courts with a tennis court pavilion and a tennis pro
Health spa featuring a full spa menu and a personal trainer
An invigorating outdoor hot tub
5.3 acres of gorgeously manicured grounds with lit landscaping, elegant water features and beautiful walking gardens throughout
THE BATH CLUB MAY BE CREDITED with contributing to the upscale ambiance of a thoroughfare that was once known as "Millionaires' Row." Palatial homes like the Firestone estate were built here, later to be replaced by grand resort hotels such as the Fountainbleau and Eden Roc. Today, a picture-perfect beach and proximity to marinas, centers of commerce and the airport, all contribute to the location's allure. The Bath Club is just minutes from the vibrant restaurant, cultural and nightlife scene of South Beach, as well as the world-renowned collection of stores known as Bal Harbour Shops.

"Canyon Ranch Living is the natural evolution of the Canyon Ranch experience," says Zuckerman. "The project is the fulfillment of Canyon Ranch's longtime mission to develop a community where residents can embrace the joy of healthy living."
The first Canyon Ranch Living community project, scheduled to open in 2005, will be overseen by Canyon Ranch executive vice president and chief strategy officer Kevin M. Kelly. Citing a values-based national study commissioned by Canyon Ranch in 2002, Kelly said, "Almost a third of Americans are seeking the concept embodied by Canyon Ranch Living -- a community designed around the central theme of healthy living. We were thrilled to discover that the study, conducted in nine major U.S. markets, confirms that there is a segment of the population looking for a different residential lifestyle than is presently available in the marketplace."
Canyon Ranch Living, a collaboration with WSG Development Company, will be built on the oceanfront site of the former Carillon Hotel, a late Œ50s historic hotel known for its distinctive Mid-Century Modern style. The Carillon, located at 6801 Collins Avenue, has been closed since 1987. It is being renovated and preserved as part of the development.
The renowned architectural firms of the Rockwell Group and Arquitectonica have been selected to transform the original Carillon Hotel. The Rockwell Group has designed the public spaces and interiors. Arquitectonica, the master architectural firm, has designed two new condominium towers housing one, two and three bedroom and penthouse residences.
Residents will have access to a 60,000 square-foot Spa & Fitness Center, including a Canyon Ranch Health & Healing Center that will offer preventive medicine and wellness services. Neighborhood amenities will include walking and biking paths along the beach, common areas for play, sports and relaxation and a Canyon Ranch Café that will serve nutritious gourmet cuisine.

High-rises, high hopes / Miami New Construction Realtor / 800-819-5466
Click Here For A Map Of Everything Under Construction In Downtown Miami. The New Miami Sky Line.
A frenzy of condo-building will remake much of Miami in this decade. The likely result, a new skyline, more congestion and more wealth.
In downtown, from Brickell Avenue north to the Edgewater neighborhood, up the Miami River and down historic Coral Way, great chunks of Old Miami are fast disappearing in a cloud of dust. In its place, the New Miami -- a dense, steel-and-glass forest of condo towers -- is rising from the rubble.
The scope, scale and speed of the transformation are breathtaking.
More than 114 major projects, most of them high-rise condos, are under construction or in the planning stages in the urban core along Biscayne Bay.
Citywide, developers are proposing more than 61,000 new condominium units -- eight times the number built during the past decade.
The projects encompass the tallest skyscraper in Florida, a 74-story spire higher than any residential building south of Manhattan, almost four million square feet of new retail space (nearly as much as two Aventura Malls) and parking for more than 100,000 cars.
''You have a wave of development underway here in Miami that is unprecedented, bigger than anything, bigger than Hong Kong in the boom years of development,'' said former Portland, Ore., councilman Charles Hales, a transportation consultant working on a plan for a Miami streetcar line.
Not since the post-World War II housing boom that multiplied Miami-Dade County's population fivefold, to more than one million people, has the region experienced anything comparable. But that took almost 20 years.
''We are building an instant city; what should take 15 years will take three,'' said Michael Cannon, a Miami real-estate analyst.
The boom struck suddenly, unexpectedly, first a trickle of projects, then a torrent. Cash has poured in from Latin America, New York and, increasingly, Europe, the result of converging market forces -- slashed interest rates, a cheap dollar -- and a worldwide infatuation with Miami among the chic and moneyed.
It all amounts to a multibillion-dollar gamble, outdoing in risk and bravado the 1920s boom that made Miami a modern city: That given waterfront location, a sunny climate and a hip, international culture, intensive downtown residential development can catapult Miami into the first rank of world cities.
Elected officials, in particular Miami Mayor Manny Diaz and Miami Commissioner Johnny Winton, are counting on the boom to reverse downtown's long decline, to turn its seedy blocks and outlying neighborhoods into a scintillating, working urban hub with a vibrant street life.
''Just five years ago we were broke; we had zero development,'' Winton said. ``I'm going to bet you that when we're done -- I don't know when that will be -- historians will identify this as the most significant and rapid transformation of an American city.''
What precisely will the boom deliver? It's too soon to tell, experts say.
But this convulsion of development is already remaking not just Miami's skyline, but its streets and neighborhoods and likely its population, too.
If it stays on track, the boom promises a fundamentally different Miami -- more urban and congested, but also more cosmopolitan and, given the high prices the condos command, probably wealthier.
It also raises serious concerns. In the absence of a ready plan, how will the city cope with thousands of expected new residents and the traffic they will generate, given antiquated infrastructure, limited public transit and a shortage of parks and open space? Will Miami residents, among the nation's poorest urban dwellers, be displaced or priced out of new housing?
That is, if the planned condos actually get built, sold and occupied.
As the boom takes on the feel of a gold rush, real estate analysts, bankers and even some developers fear it's a mirage, a bubble fueled by speculators looking to resell condo units for a quick profit, and not by true buyer demand.
If developers build too much, and speculators can't find buyers for resale, the boom could bust, leaving Miami littered with vacant and bankrupted buildings or, worse, unfinished towers and bare lots.
SIGNS OF FUROR
For now, though, signs of the furor are everywhere.
Sales centers for multimillion-dollar condos that tout the merits of high-rise living sprout up across the city. Brokers push Miami condos in farflung locales, from Caracas and Bogotá to New York and France's Cte d'Azur. Lavish condo parties are thrown by developers several times a week, and advertisements for the high-rises fill the pages of local magazines and newspapers, including The Herald.
Downtown Miami is a thicket of construction cranes. Much of the landward side of Biscayne Boulevard has been razed, and the footings and columns of what will soon be a wall of six colossal condos, each more than 50 stories, are becoming visible.
''Where else are you near the water, 10 minutes from Miami Beach, 15 minutes from the airport and have access to public transportation?'' said Daniel Kodsi, chief executive of Boca Raton-based Royal Palm Communities, which plans a high-rise condo called Paramount Park across from AmericanAirlines Arena.
There is so much building that developers are struggling to find qualified contractors and subcontractors.
Sales and resales in the mid-six figures, and well beyond, have become commonplace. Towers of 300 units sell out in a day, with buyers coming in the main not from Miami, but from other parts of the country and the world.
''Miami, New York and Los Angeles have become the three cities in the U.S. where people want to be,'' said Joe Cayre, chairman of Midtown Group, which is building eight condo towers on the site of the old Florida East Coast Railroad yards in Wynwood.
They are people like Sal Loduca, who plans to leave Manhattan and his family's Long Island food business to open a brick-oven pizzeria at Cayre's Midtown Miami.
''Everyone's making the move to Miami. How could you not? It's a great opportunity. Miami's full of life,'' Loduca said.
`CRITICAL COMBUSTION'
Real estate broker Philip Spiegelman calls the confluence of factors propelling this boom a ``critical combustion.''
Among them:
• Across the country, young people and so-called ''empty-nesters'' have been returning to urban centers, in part because of long, wearing commutes from outlying suburbs. At the same time, a dwindling supply of easily developable land in western Miami-Dade and Broward counties has prompted developers to look eastward.
• A shortage of waterfront property elsewhere led developers to Miami's acres and acres of vacant bayfront land.
• Low interest rates have fueled record home-buying, while aging baby boomers are increasingly seeking second homes in sunny or exotic places.
• A cleaner local government has made Miami attractive to lenders and investors who once thought the city too risky, unsafe or corrupt.
• The weak dollar has made Miami an alluring bargain for Europeans and Latin Americans. And compared to other urban centers like New York City, Miami remains cheap.
Then there is the other factor, anecdotal and unquantifiable: the speculator.
''As much as 85 percent of all condominium sales in [downtown Miami] are accounted for by investors and speculators,'' housing analysts at investment firm Raymond James warned in a March report.
Banks have started to back off lending on condo projects, or have instituted new rules to avoid giving mortgages to investors.
Spiegelman sold the condo units in the Marina Blue condo going up on Biscayne Boulevard.
''One hundred percent of the buyers were investors and speculators,'' he said. ``Anyone who tells you their projects are different are deluding themselves.''
ZONING-CODE OVERHAUL
The pace of development is so furious that it has overtaken the city's planning efforts.
Only now is the city getting around to a long-promised overhaul of its outdated zoning code, a complete rewrite meant to ensure that new development produces lively, pedestrian-friendly streetscapes and respects open spaces and established neighborhoods, while weaving it all together into a cogent urban fabric. The rewrite, dubbed Miami 21, will be phased in over two years.
Yet more than 100 large-scale projects, most of them in and around downtown, have already been approved or are under construction.
Public-transit improvements like Metrorail extensions, a light-rail line to Miami Beach and the contemplated city streetcar are years away, raising fears of gridlock.
Quipped Cannon, the real estate analyst: ``Maybe we need to give every buyer of a condo in the urban core a Segway.''
There are other worries.
Some skeptics, noting the high condo prices and the out-of-town provenance of buyers, fear that instead of the diverse, working 24-hour downtown that city leaders envision, the boom will instead create a seasonal playground for the rich, a Monte Carlo on Biscayne Bay.
''I bet those buildings are going to be empty a lot of the time,'' said Joel Kotkin, an urban historian and consultant who has written about the rise of what he calls ''ephemeral cities'' -- places like San Francisco, Berlin and parts of New York that increasingly cater to the rich, the childless young and tourists.
''Maybe this is Miami's karma, to be this kind of place, a temporary, hip, cool, nomadic population serviced by a poor population,'' said Kotkin, author of The City: A Global History. But, he added: ``History shows a city has to maintain some sense of a middle-class character if it wants to thrive.''
`MISSING LINK'
Yet there's relatively little in the new downtown priced for working families. ''The missing link here is in creating housing that the middle class can afford,'' said Rafael Kapustin, a longtime downtown property owner who pioneered the conversion of old downtown offices and hotels into modestly priced condos and apartments.
In partnership with a big developer, the Related Group, Kapustin developed two affordable loft condos, with units averaging around $150,000, now under construction in the inner core of downtown. But their Loft II project may be the last of its kind because of the surging cost of land and construction, he said.
City leaders are sanguine. They say it will take years for all the planned condos to be built and occupied, allowing time to absorb new residents, build public amenities and improve transit.
While few city residents can afford waterfront condos, thousands of moderately priced condos and rental apartments are being built by private developers in adjacent Overtown and neighborhoods like Little Havana and Allapattah, many with direct city subsidies, according to a recent report from Miami Mayor Diaz.
`SELF-REINFORCING CYCLE'
And gradually, as new residents move into downtown, businesses, shops, restaurants, neighborhood retailers and services will follow, said Neisen Kasdin, a land-use lawyer and former Miami Beach mayor.
''It becomes a self-reinforcing cycle,'' Kasdin said. ``Yes, there will be a large segment of temporary residents, but as the city continues to grow as an international business city, it leads to the continued growth of a permanent community.''
Meanwhile, the city has instituted measures that strengthen the planners' hand in shaping an attractive, livable downtown: hiding parking garages inside buildings; lining sidewalks with shops, offices, dwellings and restaurants; and keeping garage and service entrances off Biscayne Boulevard and other main arteries.
'We used to sit here and say, `Someday,' '' said Miami Planning Director Ana Gelabert-Sánchez, alluding to the city's long-frustrated hopes for a downtown revival. ``Well, someday is here.''

One Bal Harbour / 800-819-5466 / One Bal Harbour Pre Construction
Long favored as the hideaway of the rich and famous, Bal Harbour Village covers approximately one third of a square mile and is one of the smallest municipalities in Miami-Dade County. Within this storied enclave, WCI proudly introduces One Bal Harbour, an impeccably designed 26-story luxury condominium that proves "Perfection is Singular." One Bal Harbour is one of the first new luxury towers to be built in Bal Harbour in years, and the first condominium/hotel offered on the island in decades.
Set on the northeastern tip of Bal Harbour beside the inlet and ocean, One Bal Harbour is convenient to both Miami International and Fort Lauderdale International Airports with close proximity to South Beach and the famed Art Deco District. Yacht owners will enjoy the nearby Haulover Marina Center and The Bal Harbour Club. This prime location also offers easy access to the renowned Bal Harbour Shops and many other high-end specialized boutiques offering internationally recognized designers. Fine gourmet dining will be at your fingertips - with a choice at the nearby restaurants or right at home in One Bal Harbour's world-class restaurant. Residents will also have the option of enjoying the hotel's room service, luxurious spa, white-glove concierge assistance and valet service.
One Bal Harbour's innovative Tower Estates and Grand Penthouses will range from approximately 2,000 to 8,000 square feet and offer spectacular views of the ocean, Intracoastal, bay and South Florida skylines.
Adjoining the residential tower, WCI is also building a five-star-quality hotel, The Regent Bal Harbour. Regent International Hotels, a renowned hotelier providing the finest services and a stringent commitment to excellence, has been selected as the hotel management partner and will oversee the property of this exceptional resort.

The site for One Bal Harbour is the only one of its kind along Florida's East Coast, if not the entire eastern seaboard, directly on the ocean, bordering the Intracoastal inlet. At One Bal Harbour, white beaches and the aqua surf will provide breathtaking views and a backdrop for glorious living.
At One Bal Harbour, lounging by the sea can mean poolside whimsy while overlooking all that makes The Gold Coast truly golden. The resort pool and spa will be designed to drench the body and soul in sun and sophisticated relaxation. Indoors, residents will delight in a state-of-the-art fitness center; a surround-sound theater; an elegantly appointed Social Room with sumptuous seating, original works of art; as well as a full bar to complete the epitome of luxurious living. Additionally, a 10,000-square-foot, professionally managed, world-class spa plans to further indulge with ocean views and personal services such as massage and soothing body treatments, performed by licensed therapists. By day or by night, sunlit or moonlit, One Bal Harbour will be a resort paradise you can call home.
Providing the ambiance of a five-star resort, the hotel will offer white glove treatment including 24-hour valet, room service, housekeeping and a full-time concierge to assist with travel, dining and theatre arrangements, in addition to other special needs such as pet care. White-glove treatment will also include resort-style beach and poolside treatment, including towel and beach services, and beach umbrellas.

Everything under the sun. The best of the best. Bal Harbour Shops, a leisurely, palm-shaded stroll from your door.
