As the Habitat Group is finalizing construction on Smart Brickell’s second tower, the company is moving forward in the permitting process for not one, but four, distinct developments in Brickell. The developer’s latest proposals, including Smart Brickell Luxe, Season One, Millux Place, and Parkside have all had permits submitted for their eventual construction, though some appear to be progressing towards completion more quickly than others. Of the permits submitted, the Habitat Group has filed for master construction permits, foundation permits, demolition permits, tree removal permits, and more.
The first project, Smart Brickell Luxe, appears to be the furthest along out of the four projects. The development, which recently received construction financing, has already completed the instillation of all foundation piles according to a LinkedIn post by the project’s architect: Alex Ginard. This aligns with city records, which show foundation and site work permits have been fully approved. Among foundation permits are a vertical construction permit and a master construction permit, both of which require applicant corrections.
Parkside is the next fastest-moving project. The 185-unit project at the edge of Brickell has already secured foundation permit approval and is currently under review for its master construction permit. While construction has yet to begin on-site, permitting activity suggests that groundbreaking could happen in the near future.
The remaining two projects, Season One and Millux Place, are moving at a steadier pace, with 80 and 99 units respectively. Both recently submitted master building permits. Season One’s was filed on April 25th and accepted on June 23rd, while Millux Place’s was filed on May 14th and accepted on June 18th. Both permits are now undergoing review. However, before construction can officially commence on both projects, they require the submittal and approval of a foundation permit: something both projects do not have.
With foundation work already completed at Smart Brickell Luxe and Parkside nearing construction, Habitat Group’s multi-site expansion is moving forward with steady speed. Likewise, the continued progression of Season One and Millux Place through the permitting pipeline suggests that all four projects could be under active construction within the next year, setting the stage for a significant wave of units to come online by the end of the decade in Brickell.
