Five million-square-foot Swire project to
break ground in Miami within year
The real estate giant has awakened. Hong
Kong-based Swire Properties is moving forward to
convert three Brickell sites into a 5
million-square-foot, mixed-use project centered
on retail expected to begin construction by the
second quarter of next year. The prime Brickell
sites at 601, 700 and 701 S Miami Ave. are
destined for an artful mix of upscale components
that are to fit well within this booming retail
hub that includes the Mary Brickell Village
complex and other nearby open-air shopping
centers.
"It's a major project for Brickell and urban
Miami," said President Stephen Owens.
The development company has hired
Arquitectonica, which has designed several
projects for Swire in the past, as the
architectural firm to design the CitiCentre
project.
"The reason why we picked Arquitectonica is
because this is similar to other urban projects
they have done for us in Asia," Mr. Owens noted.
Swire has developed other sophisticated urban
projects of similar scale designed by the
architecture firm, including Festival Walk, a
multilevel shopping, dining and leisure complex
with nearly 1 million square feet in Hong Kong.
The company is getting ready to open another
development close to 4 million square feet known
as TaiKoo Hui in mainland China that comprises a
shopping mall, two office towers, a cultural
center and a Mandarin Oriental hotel with
residences. "Arquitectonica has a particular
talent for this," Mr. Owens said, "and they have
performed well for us in projects in other
areas." Arquitectonica Founding Principal
Bernardo Fort-Brescia said the firm has been
working with Swire since 1993 on designing
mixed-use projects in Asia and other parts of
the world.
"This is a natural evolution of the relationship
between architect and developer that has been
building," he said. "We'll be designing this
project in our hometown. It's very exciting. It
will change that location and it's a historical
project for Miami." The planned Brickell
development, Mr. Owens said, is to have
significant retail as well as other mixed-use
components. "It brings a significant retail
opportunity to the urban area," he said.
If the majority of CitiCentre's planned 5
million square feet are designated retail, it
would create a giant shopping hub unlike
anything in the state. Today, Dolphin Mall in
Doral has about 1.4 million square feet of
retail space, while Sawgrass Mills Mall in
Sunrise, considered the second largest mall in
the state, has almost 2.4 million square feet of
retail. Swire, which has been developing
Brickell Key for decades, bought the first two
sites at 700 and 701 S Miami Ave. more than two
years ago from iStar Financial for $41.3 million
cash.
Last August, the company erected signs for the
project on the 5.65-acre land, but at the time
executives didn't publicly discuss development
plans.
Those two parcels are along Miami Avenue,
bordered by Southeast Eighth and Seventh
streets. The parcels are boxed in on the west by
Southwest First Avenue and to the east by the
Eighth Street Metromover Station.
Earlier this month, Swire acquired a third
2-acre site at 601 S Miami Ave., which houses
the Brickell Tennis Club, for $14 million from
an affiliate of Millennium Partners, the
developer of Brickell's Four Seasons Hotel &
Tower, whose project plans for the parcel never
took off.
Brickell has been bursting with pedestrian
activity after 5 p.m. since the addition of
multiple condominiums in recent years. The
growing condo community and office population
are fueling more demand for retailers, eateries
and entertainment venues within walking
distance.
Swire promoted Christopher Gandolfo, who has
been with the company 12 years, to vice
president of development in late 2010 to focus
on its local projects.
He rejoined the Miami team after spending two
years working for parent Swire Properties
Limited in Shanghai.
Mr. Owens said he couldn't provide more
CitiCentre details because plans are still
underway for this large-scale complex. But
he did add that this mixed-use project "will be
a significant game-changer for Brickell and
urban Miami.
