Miami, FL  — RKW Residential closed out a year of continued expansion amid unprecedented challenges by earning two prestigious new assignments in South Florida.

 The company is now overseeing management and leasing at Treasures on the Bay in Miami’s North Bay Village and Central Gardens Grand Apartments in Palm Beach Gardens, adding 471 units to a portfolio that now exceeds 22,000.

As RKW’s Florida portfolio grows, the company is promoting a pair of executives who are pivotal to its success in the state. Johnny De La Espriella is now Senior Vice President – Operations, and Yanira Herrera is Regional Vice President. Both are based in RKW’s Miami office.

 The Treasures and Central Gardens communities represent RKW’s first assignments with respective owners Mast Capital and L&L Holding Co. Mast Capital is a Miami-based investor and developer of prime residential and commercial properties.

 New York-based L&L is led by renowned real estate executives David Levinson and Robert Lapidus.

 The luxurious Treasures on the Bay underwent an extensive recent renovation and has a mix of one, two and three-bedroom apartments.

It overlooks Biscayne Bay and features three bayfront, resort-style pools; spacious sundeck with lounges and al fresco dining; a modern, fully equipped fitness center; indoor bike storage; cyber café; and smart package lockers.

 Central Gardens is comprised of one, two and three-bedroom apartments with eight distinct floor plans and stainless steel appliances and granite countertops in all units.

The community features a 13,000-square-foot clubhouse; putting green; heated swimming pool and hot tub; 24-hour fitness center; lounges, card rooms; fire pit; dog park; juice bar; and community garden.

 “We are excited to embark on these new client partnerships involving such incredible luxury communities in South Florida,” De La Espriella said. 

“Our managers and staff are eager to provide the residents of Treasures on the Bay and Central Gardens with an unparalleled experience.”


De La Espriella was previously Regional Vice President before his promotion. He was recognized this summer by the South Florida Business Journal as one of its 2020 “40 Under 40” honorees.

 Herrera joined RKW as Regional Manager several years ago after serving in similar roles for significant multifamily owners and developers. As Regional Vice President, she leads operations for RKW’s Florida portfolio.

 Founded just six years ago, RKW is one of the multifamily industry’s most compelling entrepreneurial success stories in recent memory.
