Miami, FL – April 12, 2016 – The Greater Miami Chamber of Commerce held its annual Developer Roundtable event presented by One River Point and Doulgas Elliman Real Estate on the future site of One River Point, the striking pair of 60-story Rafael Vinoly-designed towers leading the renaissance of the Miami River. One River Point’s developer Shahab Karmely, Founder and Principal of New York-based KAR Properties, was joined by Stephen Owens, President of Swire Properties and Alyce Robertson, Executive Director of the Miami DDA.
