Condo-hotel by Dan Kodsi’s RPC – Arts & Entertainment District

Originally planning an apartment tower at 1317 to 1353 North Miami Avenue, Dan Kodsi's Royal Palm Companies now seeks a density boost as it switched gears to build a branded condo-hotel instead. Zoned to carry up to 245 residential units, RPC is working to upzone the site to carry 360 condos.

Kodsi secured a $8.36 million pre-development bridge loan this August to fund its change in plans. The roughly half-acre site will be home to a 30-story condo-hotel. Featuring micro-units, the project will have a short-term rental component, however, it will not be the typical condo-hotel arrangement.

Kodsi will be partnering with Morgan’s Original, run by the Europe-based Ennismore, to brand and operate the project. The project will center around automobiles and collecting cars. With plans to finalize rezoning by the end of 2024, the Legacy developer expects to launch sales next year.

This mid-rise would feature six luxury condos on its top two floors, 50 hotel rooms on the 2nd and 3rd floors, plus 60 parking spaces on the ground floor. 

The three-story west wing would be redeveloped with larger hotel rooms, bringing the overall count down from 67 to 55. The three-story south wing, which is the hotel’s entrance, will remain intact.

As a result of its unique partnership with Airbnb, daily rentals will be managed via the hosting site’s centralized management platform, with comprehensive on-site support – affording owners a seamless experience.

Featuring stunning interiors by Cotofana Designs, residences will come equipped with top-of-the-line appliances, the latest in smart home tech with integrated audio, video, and lighting systems, plus panoramic city and bay views.

A 30,000 square-foot, tri-level “experiential” entertainment and food hall on the building’s ground floor will be the crown jewel of amenities. This ground-level haven will feature a mirrored whale soaring through the 9,759-square-foot restaurant’s ceiling. There will also be a resort-style rooftop pool deck, a resident’s sky lounge, a spa with a cold plunge pool, a fitness center, a yoga and spin room, 4,840 square feet of offices, co-working lounges, eight floors of parking, and more.

Prices started in the mid-$400,000s, with a limited choice of fully-furnished studios and one-bedroom residences remaining.
