An Iconic British Automotive Name Will Be Embodied by a Supertall Tower in Sunny Isles

For 103 years, since the brand was founded in North London, the Bentley name has carried an incalculable value and cachet. In 2013, that venerable name translated into sumptuous interior pieces inspired by the vehicle’s lines, when the Bentley Home Furniture Collection debuted at Luxury Living Store in the Miami Design District.

And now another milestone is quite literally elevating the brand, as the first Bentley-branded residential tower in the world is coming to Sunny Isles Beach. Bentley Motors, in collaboration with Dezer Development, has announced the official launch of the sales gallery for Bentley Residences Miami, an immersive environment expertly designed to exude the same opulence to be experienced once the luxury tower officially opens to homeowners.

The 12,000-square-foot sales gallery offers buyers a carefully curated approximation of the private beachfront enclave that will encompass a one-of-a-kind collection of 216 residential units, each starting at $4.2 million. ​​Each unit will feature uninterrupted water views, floor-to-ceiling glass windows, individual balcony swimming pools with outdoor showers, and—in a nod to the building’s automotive pedigree—an in-unit, multicar garage boasting a patented elevator known as the Dezervator. (The Dezervator, named for developer Gil Dezer of Dezer Development, first appeared in Dezer’s first building, the 641-foot-tall Porsche Design Tower, next door.) The sales gallery features a full-size 6,000-square-foot model unit replica.

Other highlights include a theater room and separate lounge area for brokers, a full-service kitchen and dedicated bar stocked with a range of the Macallan’s finest whisky for client entertainment and intimate hosting opportunities, and the Bentley Brand Room, where some of the most notable examples of British craftsmanship will be on display, offering guests an extended experience and further information on the tower-to-be. Both the sales gallery and every unit within Bentley Residences Miami will feature top-of-the-line Gaggenau appliances.

The firm of Sieger Suarez, which designed Dezer’s Armani/Casa and Porsche Design Tower projects, is the architect for Bentley Residences Miami. The tower, set to be the tallest building on an American beachfront, will stand at 749 feet tall. It is slated for groundbreaking in 2023, and completion—when residents will finally be able to drive up, and in—is scheduled for 2026.

BIOGRAPHY

Drew Limsky joined Lifestyle Media Group in August 2020 as Editor-in-Chief of South Florida Business & Wealth. His first issue of SFBW, October 2020, heralded a reimagined structure, with new content categories and a slew of fresh visual themes. “As sort of a cross between Forbes and Robb Report, with a dash of GQ and Vogue,” Limsky says, “SFBW reflects South Florida’s increasingly sophisticated and dynamic business and cultural landscape.”

Limsky, an avid traveler, swimmer and film buff who holds a law degree and Ph.D. from New York University, likes to say, “I’m a doctor, but I can’t operate—except on your brand.” He wrote his dissertation on the nonfiction work of Joan Didion. Prior to that, Limsky received his B.A. in English, summa cum laude, from Emory University and earned his M.A. in literature at American University in connection with a Masters Scholar Award fellowship.

Limsky came to SFBW at the apex of a storied career in journalism and publishing that includes six previous lead editorial roles, including for some of the world’s best-known brands. He served as global editor-in-chief of Lexus magazine, founding editor-in-chief of custom lifestyle magazines for Cadillac and Holland America Line, and was the founding editor-in-chief of Modern Luxury Interiors South Florida. He also was the executive editor for B2B magazines for Acura and Honda Financial Services, and he served as travel editor for Conde Nast. Magazines under Limsky’s editorship have garnered more than 75 industry awards.

He has also written for many of the country’s top newspapers and magazines, including The New York Times, Washington Post, Los Angeles Times, Miami Herald, Boston Globe, USA Today, Worth, Robb Report, Afar, Time Out New York, National Geographic Traveler, Men’s Journal, Ritz-Carlton, Elite Traveler, Florida Design, Metropolis and Architectural Digest Mexico. His other clients have included Four Seasons, Acqualina Resort & Residences, Yahoo!, American Airlines, Wynn, Douglas Elliman and Corcoran. As an adjunct assistant professor, Limsky has taught journalism, film and creative writing at the City University of New York, Pace University, American University and other colleges.
