Grand Opening The Ritz-Carlton Residences, Miami Beach developed by Lionheart Capital and designed by Piero Lissoni from World Red Eye Films on Vimeo.

Miami Beach, FL – February 6, 2020 – The largest residential adaptive reuse project in South Florida has made its much-anticipated debut. The Ritz-Carlton Residences, Miami Beach celebrated their invite-only grand opening soiree on February 6, 2020, showcasing the massive transformation the property undertook from its former verve, into the luxury residential development it is today. An important moment for the project’s developers Ophir Sternberg and Ricardo Dunin, the event welcomed over 600 guests and VIPs including, New York Mets Hall of Famer, Mike Piazza; Actor, Cuba Gooding Jr.; Italian Architect, Piero Lissoni; Million Dollar Listing Realtor, Fredrik Eklund, as well as Miami-based real estate developers, Edguardo DeFortuna, Jules Trump, Ugo Colombo, and Michael Comras. The opening remarks by Lionheart Capital CEO and Founding Partner, Ophir Sternberg, were followed by a cocktail reception on the project’s lush half-acre pool deck; immersive model residence tours; and an exploration of sensory art installations by Klip Collective.

“This development has been a true labor of love for all of us at Lionheart Capital. We have taken the time to curate, not only a luxury residential building, but an engaging sanctuary and community for our residents, focusing on everything from the smallest design details to the largest, first-ever amenities. It was our intention to craft a product that was intensely thoughtful, how we each would want things actualized within our own homes. The end result took time to get just right but turned out even better than I, or anyone ever anticipated.”
