Related Group unveils purchase of 1400 Biscayne Blvd.

BY MARTHA BRANNIGANMBRANNIGAN@MIAMIHERALD.COM

Miami-based Related Group, expanding its ambitious development portfolio in Miami, closed on the acquisition of 1400 Biscayne Boulevard for $57.3 million.

Related plans to develop a mixed-use project with three towers, spanning nearly two million square feet of “luxury residential and prime retail” space on the 2.8-acre site that sits in front of the Adrienne Arsht Center for the Performing Arts.

“This location is a prime opportunity to be part of a strategic location between Brickell [and] the Design District, next to Museum Park,” Matt Allen, Related’s chief operating officer, said in a statement. “With the Arsht Center directly across the street and Pérez Art Museum Miami and the Frost Science Museum nearby, our future residents will be in the very heart of Miami’s thriving arts and culture scene.’’

The seller was Espacio USA, the U.S. arm of Immobiliaria Espacio, a Spanish real estate firm, which purchased 1400 Biscayne Center in 2010 for more than $32 million. The site currently has a low-rise office and retail building. Espacio had itself been planning a major development on the site.
