ЭКСКЛЮЗИВ: К следующему лету силуэт Майами будет отмечен новым архитектурным ориентиром, который привлекает в Южную Флориду корпоративных руководителей и состоятельных покупателей.

Cipriani Residences Miami официально завершила возведение своего примерно 950-футового строительного проекта, который является самым высоким жилым небоскрёбом в городе. 85-этажная башня отражает превращение Майами из курортного направления в постоянный центр международного богатства и рынок, где проекты элитного жилья формируются как спросом на стиль жизни, так и корпоративными переездами.

Cipriani сообщил Fox News Digital, что первый для компании проект жилой застройки с нуля в Северной Америке продан уже более чем на 80%. Ожидается, что покупатели из более чем 30 стран будут считать Майами своим основным домом.

"Residential living is a natural extension of hospitality, but it was important to us to do it in the right way," Giuseppe Cipriani exclusively told Fox Digital. "With Cipriani Residences Miami, we found the right city, location and a great partner… Our family has been closely involved in shaping the design and the overall experience so that it reflects the same traditions we have carried with us for generations. For us, it is not simply about putting the Cipriani name on a building. It is about creating a home where the way you live is the way we would live."

Camilo Miguel Jr., founder and CEO of Mast Capital and the developer behind the tower, said проект особенно важен для него по мере того, как он поднимается над городом.

"Every time I drive by it, my emotional reaction is, ‘Wow.’ I am humbled by the fact that we're building something of this scale, because when I started my business, although I always aspired to get here, I didn't know when it would happen — and it has happened," Miguel said. "One of the biggest challenges was actually the upfront planning part, because when you're building a 950-foot building… the engineering that goes into that is quite different than building something that's 20 stories."

Крупнейшие международные рынки покупателей, по порядку, — Мексика, Италия, Колумбия, Бразилия, Венесуэла, Аргентина, Канада, Франция, Испания и Великобритания. Покупатели из США, включая жителей штатов с высокими налогами, таких как Нью-Йорк и Калифорния, также продолжают приобретать объекты в проекте.

"There are countries that are having a lot of their own economic challenges and headwinds and political challenges and headwinds, as well… And people are not only buying in Miami as [an] investment, but people are actually buying in Miami to live. And people were looking at Cipriani and saying, ‘This is going to be home,’" Miguel said. "We have some buyers who have bought for their whole family and intend to move everybody into the building," he added.

Cipriani said привлекательность бренда остаётся неизменной на разных рынках и среди разных поколений.

"Every city has its own character, but what people appreciate about Cipriani is remarkably consistent: warmth, discretion, good service and a sense of familiarity," Cipriani said. "Miami is a very international city, and that has always felt natural to us. People come here from all over the world, just as they do in Venice or New York. The lifestyle naturally is shaped by its beautiful weather, its connection to the water, its seamless relationship between indoor and outdoor spaces. Cipriani Residences Miami brings that way of living into our world."

"People are increasingly choosing Miami not only as somewhere to visit, but somewhere to live," Cipriani continued. "They want privacy, comfort, good service and a quality of life that feels effortless."

Earlier this month, the New York Post reported that soccer star Lionel Messi had bought four units in the building, followed by a wave of other Argentine players. Buyers also reportedly include executives from Citadel and Amazon who are relocating from New York and California.

"We don't change who we are depending on the guest. That has never been our philosophy," Cipriani said. "For nearly a century, our family has welcomed people from many different countries, culture[s], generations and paths of life. Royals, aristocrats, powerful businessmen but also writers, intellectuals and all kind[s] of interesting people have been coming to our locations — as human beings."

"That sense of warmth and understated elegance that comes from our Italian heritage, and it remains at the heart of everything we do, fortunately has appealed to many of them," the grandson of the Cipriani patriarch added.

Miguel said, что ориентированная на бизнес среда Майами стала важным фактором притяжения для компаний и высокооплачиваемых работников.

"One of the main reasons that people are choosing Miami over New York City right now is the pro-business mentality. I mean you live in a business-friendly city and a business-friendly state, and the growth and the global nature of our city," Miguel explained. "And you realize quickly that as a hedge fund or a financial institution, you no longer just need to be in New York City to be relevant and be successful."

"These are big companies that are moving here, signing leases, taking space, and moving their top executives to Miami, their high-income earners. And these individuals are buying homes and condos across Miami," Miguel said.

Также ожидается, что проект станет единственной новой жилой башней в районе Brickell, где сдача завершённых квартир запланирована на 2027 год, что делает его частью ограниченного краткосрочного предложения на одном из наиболее внимательно отслеживаемых рынков недвижимости города.

Cipriani связал проект с наследием семьи, отметив, что Harry’s Bar в Венеции открылся в 1931 году и стал местом появления Bellini, а также заложил ценности бренда — "warmth, simplicity and genuine care."

"We are very proud, of course, of what has been built, and of where the company is today, 95 years after the opening of that small bar in Venice. Seeing the tower reach its full height makes us even more excited to bring that spirit to life for the residents who will call it home," Cipriani said.

"The principles have never changed," he said. "Whether it is a restaurant, a club, a hotel or now a residence, the idea is the same: people should feel comfortable, free and at home. The world changes, but our hospitality values do not."

Miguel described the project as rooted in the identity of бренда Cipriani и в подходе компании к сервису.

"This is really about heritage, about people, about a family," Miguel said, recalling his first time at a Cipriani restaurant. "What I really liked about it is that subtle elegance that you feel when you walk in, and the fact that everybody that works there is smiling, everybody that's there is welcoming and everybody that is there is hyper-focused on making sure that you have a positive experience."

"I never dreamed of Miami being what it is today," Miguel said, "and I think the sky's the limit."
