Naftali Group, a globally recognized real estate development and investment brand headed by visionary developer Miki Naftali, has launched sales for JEM Private Residences in Miami Worldcenter in Downtown Miami’s District 11. This dynamic condominium development, rising over 700 feet tall and spanning 67 stories, is a landmark focal point within the city’s iconic Miami Worldcenter.

The launch of JEM Private Residences represents a significant milestone in Naftali Group’s expansion into Florida and is poised to set a new benchmark for quality product in South Florida. For over three decades, Naftali Group has developed exceptional properties that surpass the expectations of real estate consumers. From New York City to Singapore, their expertise is now extending into Miami, an international hub that promises great potential for growth. With offices in Miami and New York City, Naftali Group maintains its commitment to delivering quality, design and artistic excellence across its $15 billion portfolio which includes over 3 million square feet of development planned in South Florida.

“JEM Private Residences marks a significant milestone in my 30-year development career and a signature property in Naftali Group’s continuously growing portfolio. The luxury condominium tower is a true urban oasis within the city, a building beyond comparison that is both beautiful and practical. The limited collection of homes within the tower offer a dialogue between craftsmanship, expertise and innovation with the ultimate goal of surpassing expectations of our residents. We have prioritized the resident experience by placing these homes high within the building to provide uncompromising views paired with chic interiors and a compilation of amenities intended to elevate a well-rounded approach to wellness.” said Miki Naftali, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Naftali Group.

Naftali Group has assembled a world-class collaboration between Miami-based architecture firm Arquitectonica and New York City-based interior design firm Rockwell Group, to create a chic and timeless design aesthetic for the tower. JEM Private Residences draws inspiration from the ocean landscape, with its wave-like architecture and wraparound terraces on each floor which seamlessly blend indoor and outdoor living. Wood accents and lush greenery convey a warm and inviting environment, establishing a serene oasis within the vibrant urban setting. Fort Lauderdale-based ESDA is at the helm of the tower’s landscape architecture, elevating the ambiance of the development.

“Miami Worldcenter is a highly sought-after destination, characterized by a dynamic energy that sets it apart from any other city in the world. JEM Private Residences will elevate the quality of product offered within the walkable neighborhood and position residents at the center of Miami’s premier offerings in dining, entertainment, arts and culture,” said Naftali.

OneWorld Properties has been selected as the exclusive sales and marketing brokerage for JEM Private Residences, with residences starting from the $540,000s. The development consists of 259 units ranging from studios to four-bedroom options and a collection of 10 penthouses at the crown of the tower, some of which will feature private outdoor hot tubs. Naftali Group strategically positioned the private residences to begin at the 43rd floor to maximize breathtaking views of the Miami skyline, Biscayne Bay and Atlantic Ocean.

“Our team is excited about being involved in the continued growth of Downtown Miami and its transformation into a global city,” says Peggy Olin, CEO of OneWorld Properties. “JEM Private Residences will not only provide an unparalleled range of amenities but will also benefit from its prime location within Miami Worldcenter, making them an unbeatable choice for future residents.”
