Legacy at Miami Worldcenter receives approval from FAA

| Keren Moros

Miami Worldcenter is closer to constructing its next tower.

The Next Miami recently reported that the FAA approved the 661-foot height of the Legacy Hotel & Residences, after a four-month review. It is just under the 699-foot Paramount, completed in 2019, at the Miami Worldcenter.

The mixed-use tower from Dan Kodsi at Royal Palm Companies. features a neo-futurism-inspired design with 274 branded residences and a 256-room hotel, plus retail space on the ground floor. The project will impress with a cantilevered, Singapore-inspired pool, downtown’s largest pool deck set on one acre as well as the city’s first enclosed rooftop atrium on the top seven floors. Adding to the exclusivity is a members-only international business lounge and an eight-floor medical and wellness center.

Topped with an artful spire, Legacy will also feature microLUXE residences that range from 400 square feet to 949 square feet. Studios and two-bedroom units will start at $300,000.

The Next Miami reports that Legacy is scheduled to break ground early this year, pending a construction permit from the city.

As SFBW previously reported, Miami World Center Associate, the master developer of Miami Worldcenter,  sold a 1.53-acre parcel to RPC for $33.9 million in December.

Editor-in-Chief

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.
