Millcreek Residential, based in Boca Raton, has submitted their updated plans for Modera Aventura’s phase two. The project is coming back to Miami-Dade staff due to modifications in approved density and height. Modifications include lowering the height of the second phase from 15 floors to 8 floors, lowering density from 420 units to 251 units, and lowering parking from 557 spaces to 358 spaces. Likewise, the developers are providing 6,906 SF of commercial space on the ground floor.

The mid-rise will rise to 94 feet and features a lower profile, distinguishing it from its taller counterpart in phase one. Phase one, which is currently under construction, has reached its full height of 15 stories by topping out weeks ago.

The project complies with OUAD (Ojus Urban Area District) regulations and aligns with the district’s objectives by featuring a mixed-use design, enhancing pedestrian sidewalks, incorporating greenery, and being near transit options like the new Brightline Aventura station. However, Millcreek is not the first developer in the area. The OUAD was established in 2006 to allow higher density in exchange for better walkability and other improvements. Since then, developers like Millcreek Residential have been drawn to the area, resulting in a surge of multifamily development.

The address is 2681 NE 191st Street. Corwil Architects is the main architect.
