MIAMI, FL – Developer
Verzasca Group has obtained a critical approval from the City of Miami’s Urban
Development Review Board for its 2000 Biscayne rental apartment project in the
Edgewater neighborhood.
The board, which was
created by the city to review all urban projects of more than 200,000 square
feet in accordance with the Miami 21 zoning code, unanimously supported the
development during its Thursday, June 29 meeting.
The next step is approval
from the city’s Planning and Zoning Department, followed by a 15-day appeal
period.
Verzasca proposes to build
a 36-story high-rise tower with 393 studio, one, two and three-bedroom
apartment units totaling nearly 360,000 square feet of living space on the 2000
Biscayne Boulevard site. Dorsky + Yue International Architecture is the
building designer.

During the meeting, board
Chair Robert Behar praised the
project design, which accounted for the configuration of the site. The project
is located on a portion of Biscayne Boulevard that is considered a transit
corridor of the city and zoned for increased density.
Board member Gerald Marsten cited the landscaping
plan and synergy between the project and surrounding urban environment.
“We are thrilled to get
the support for our Edgewater project from this pivotal city board,” said
Verzasca Managing Director Tim Lobanov.
“The Edgewater neighborhood has experienced an incredible transformation into
one of Miami’s most desirable urban areas to live in – particularly for
renters. We are big long-term believers in the neighborhood.”
