In March, we wrote about the grand opening of Porsche Design Tower in Miami, with its “Dezervator” car elevator and ultra-luxury amenities. The $550 million tower is Porsche Design’s first residential project.
British sports car maker Aston Martin is following in Porsche’s footsteps, with the 391-unit Aston Martin Residences in downtown Miami, on track for completion in 2021. It broke ground in October.
Aston Martin is partnering with G&G Business Developments to develop the 66-story luxury condominium tower, which will offer a range of unit types: one-, two-, three-, and four-bedroom condos starting at $700,000, to penthouse units with private pools and terraces topping out at $50 million. All units will offer panoramic views of Biscayne Bay and the Atlantic Ocean.
The curvilinear glass-and-steel tower, designed by Revuelta Architecture and Bodas Miani Anger, is being built on one of the last parcels of developable land on the downtown Miami waterfront. Its sail shape is meant to reflect the marina setting. Residents will have direct access to the waterfront via an exclusive yacht marina.
Aston Martin is designing the interior and amenity spaces throughout the development. They include signature carbon-fiber reception desks that will adorn each of the tower’s two private lobbies, and doors with bespoke artisan Aston Martin handles, number plinths, and kestrel tan leather door tabs.
The development includes 42,275 sf of sky amenities spanning four full levels between the building’s 52nd and 55th floors. Amenities will include a double-level fitness center overlooking the ocean, spinning studio, boxing gym, virtual golf room, art gallery, two cinemas, full-service spa, beauty salon, and barber shop.
Coastal Construction Group is the GC.

Aston Martin has reveiled the first renderings of Aston Martin Residences' interiors.
“In this, our first residential development, the interiors are inspired by Aston Martin, but take into consideration Miami’s tropical environment. Our design language is based on beauty and the honesty and authenticity of materials," says Aston Martin Chief Creative Officer Marek Reichman in a release. "It’s simple and pure and it has an elegance attached to beautiful proportions. We are incorporating Aston Martin’s DNA through subtle details and fine craftsmanship, with an emphasis on comfort. This building is for people who appreciate the finest quality and craftsmanship, who love the feeling of something that is timeless.”
