Property Markets Group (PMG), in partnership with Lion Development Group and LNDMRK Development, has officially broken ground on One West Twelve Residences (ONE W12) — a 23-story, 245-foot-tall residential development in the heart of Miami’s Historic Overtown.
Designed by CUBE 3, the project will deliver 372 residences blending contemporary luxury with the area’s cultural and architectural heritage. John Moriarty & Associates serves as the general contractor, with completion anticipated in 2028.
This trend is being repeated in other areas of Miami where residential towers are becomng the norm. An example is the Palm Beach project, developed by OKO Group in conjunction with Access Industries that has now reached its vertical-building phase in the coveted Faena District, Miami.
A Landmark Groundbreaking
Under clear Miami skies, developers, architects, and community leaders gathered on October 1 to celebrate the groundbreaking. Golden shovels marked the moment as construction equipment stood ready to begin site work, framed by the skyline view of PMG’s nearby E11EVEN Residences Beyond and E11EVEN Hotel & Residences towers.
Blending Heritage and Modern Design
ONE W12’s design reflects both the vibrancy of modern Miami and Overtown’s rich cultural roots. The residences will feature sweeping views of the skyline and sunset horizons, complemented by curated interiors and community-oriented spaces.
Amenities will include:
-
A rooftop garden and pool deck with lounge areas
-
A state-of-the-art fitness center
-
Curated art installations
-
A smart-building system
-
House cruiser bikes with dedicated storage
The lobby design draws inspiration from Overtown’s storied past, combining elegance with playful, modern touches.
