December 2024 | Terra, One Thousand Group, and Major Food Group Begin Construction on Villa Miami in Edgewater

Terra, led by David Martin; One Thousand Group, led by Kevin Venger, Louis Birdman, and Michael Konig; and Major Food Group, co-founded by Jeff Zalaznick, Mario Carbone, Rich Torrisi, and Miami partner Alex Pirez, have officially broken ground on Villa Miami. This visionary luxury tower marks the first condominium branded by the esteemed hospitality group. The 650-foot, copper-clad, 56-story tower will rise above East Edgewater's exclusive bayfront, featuring a limited collection of just 70 half- and full-floor residences that redefine luxury living through exceptional service, cuisine, and design.

“Our vision for Villa Miami merges world-class design, culinary excellence, and unparalleled living standards,” said David Martin, CEO of Terra. “With only 70 residences, we emphasize privacy and exclusivity, creating ‘homes in the sky’ where social spaces seamlessly extend personal living areas.”

The project, brought to life by Moss Construction—the firm behind the on-time delivery of Five Park Miami Beach—began seawall work in September and is scheduled for completion in Q4 2027.

“This groundbreaking is a landmark moment in our journey into the luxury residential market,” said Jeff Zalaznick, Co-founder of Major Food Group. “Every detail, from design to culinary offerings, reflects our commitment to precision, passion, and quality. Villa Miami is more than a residence; it’s a celebration of the MFG experience.”

Designed by ODP Architects, Villa Miami will serve as a new architectural landmark in East Edgewater, offering direct access to Miami’s cultural and lifestyle hotspots, including the Design District, Wynwood, and Midtown. Its panoramic views of Biscayne Bay and Miami Beach perfectly complement its vibrant surroundings while maintaining proximity to Miami Beach.

Kevin Venger of One Thousand Group remarked, “Collaborating with this extraordinary team, including Vicky Charles and Kurt Dannwolf, to create Villa Miami is a thrilling opportunity to redefine Edgewater’s luxury skyline, building on the legacy of One Thousand Museum.”

Major Food Group’s creative influence shapes Villa Miami’s unmatched hospitality experience, exemplified by The Copper Club, a three-floor private amenity space exclusive to residents. The club features dining rooms, lounges, a screening room, a hair salon, a pool deck, a yacht club, wellness facilities, and a rooftop helipad. Complementing these amenities, a new MFG waterfront restaurant on the ground floor will offer residents priority seating.

Interior designer Vicky Charles, known for her bespoke work with A-list clients, collaborated with Major Food Group to craft interiors inspired by mid-century Italian villas, the flowing waters of Biscayne Bay, and Miami’s vibrant energy. Warm woods, curvilinear furniture, and ambient lighting create a harmonious living environment.

 

The developers, Terra and One Thousand Group, have a history of delivering iconic Miami residences, including Five Park Miami Beach, Mr. C Residences in Coconut Grove, and Zaha Hadid’s One Thousand Museum. Villa Miami promises to elevate Edgewater’s skyline and set a new standard for luxury living.
