The Transit-Oriented Mixed-Use Development CORE Link at Douglas Launches Leasing

The transit-oriented CORE Link at Douglas, a new 312-unit mixed-use multifamily tower, has launched leasing at the intersection of Coconut Grove and Coral Gables. Slated to open in August at 3060 SW 37th Avenue, CORE will become the first tower to open at Link at Douglas, a 7-acre mixed-use development being developed adjacent to Miami’s Metrorail and The Underline linear park. The project is being developed by a joint venture between Miami-based real estate developers 13th Floor Investments and Adler Group, in partnership with global investment manager Barings.

The 22-story residential building will feature studios, one-, and two-bedroom apartments with upscale finishes and panoramic city views. Leasing rates will start at $1,690 for studios, $2,090 for one-bedrooms and $2,790 for two-bedrooms. As part of a special pre-leasing promotion, CORE is offering one month free for new renters, with an additional second month free for those signing a lease without a car and planning to utilize the development’s nearby transit access.

Apartments feature private balconies, floor-to-ceiling windows and a modern design that offers ample natural light. Residences are designed with luxury plank flooring, granite countertops, modern kitchen hardware and appliances, an in-home washer and dryer, and porcelain shower walls.

Amenities include a rooftop pool deck with stunning views, poolside grilling, private cabanas, as well as a fitness center with a yoga studio, business center, media room, and a social lounge complete with billiards, shuffleboard, ping pong, and a furnished seating area centered on a fireplace. Other amenities include secured package room, bike storage, and Wi-Fi in all common areas.

CORE’s ownership has selected The Bozzuto Group to provide property management, including full-service concierge, 24-hour maintenance, resident app, monthly resident events and its signature away-from-home services of plant care, newspaper delivery and in-home package delivery.

Located along US-1 and Douglas Road, CORE and Link at Douglas are perfectly situated to offer direct access to Miami-Dade County’s Metrorail system, the Miami-Dade bus lines and the Coral Gables Trolley. Directly underneath the property, residents can enjoy outdoor workout activities along The Underline, a 10-mile linear park under development that spans from Downtown Miami to South Miami.

“We are excited to deliver our first building at Link at Douglas. With CORE, we wanted to set a new standard for those who want a more connected lifestyle,” said Aaron Stolear, Associate Vice President of 13th Floor Investments, on behalf of the joint venture development team. “At CORE, residents will lease apartments but will ‘live’ at the building – the amenities are just that spectacular.”

CORE will be followed by CASCADE, an adjacent 36-story multifamily tower set to open at Link at Douglas in mid-2022, which will feature a 25,000-square-foot Milam’s Market on the ground-floor level. All told, the Link at Douglas development’s master plan will encompass 1,422 residential units, over 32,000 square feet of retail space, a 280,000-square-foot office building, and a public plaza that connects with The Underline.
