Construction Update: Mast Capital's Rene Gonzalez Designed Louver House Officially Completes in South of Fifth

Mast Capital has completed their first luxury condo development, South-of-Fifth's Louver House. Designed by award-winning Miami-based architect Rene Gonzalez, the 4-story building features 12 residences which pay homage to the rich history of Meridian Avenue. Gonzalez started by preserving the memory of a historic Belvedere bungalow that was once on the Louver House site by creating a louvered bungalow that will be the focal point of the entrance. Mast Capital also brought on artist Michele Oka Doner to create artwork that will hang in the lobby area. The space will be draped with plants from landscape architect Savino & Miller. Only 4 residences remain for sale. Louver House will commence closings mid-August. Buyers, who are predominantly end-users, can now move in and start enjoying their large, landscaped terraces; proximity to the beach; the property’s beach concierge service as well as its neighboring shops and restaurants. Remaining residences start at $2.5 million to $3.1 million. Sales and marketing for the Louver House are exclusively handled by ONE Sotheby’s International Realty.

“We’re excited to finally present Louver House because it has all the key elements buyers are looking for in today’s luxury residential real estate market,” says Camilo Miguel Jr., CEO of Mast Capital. “To us, luxury is about amazing finishes, expansive spaces and the ability to enjoy a sense of privacy. This building offers a unique lifestyle that places residents in one of Miami Beach’s most exciting neighborhoods, but because of its small scale, also serves as an exclusive, family-friendly enclave.”

“The architectural design for Louver House has everything to do with the beauty of the building’s surroundings; we wanted to create a substantial and substantive piece of architecture that pays deference to its environment and urban condition,” says architect Rene Gonzalez.

Tour The Palm Island Contemporary Which is The First To Close on Palm Island in 2017

201 Palm Avenue closed today (8/24/27) for $3,400,000, represented by Douglas Elliman’s Devin Kay. The 4,500 SF home is spread over 6 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms. The residence features a mix of natural wood and stone, high end finishes such as Grohe fixtures, Wolf/Sub zero appliances, oak wood and Italian flooring, a sleek pool and a stunning rooftop entertainment deck offering 360 degree views. 

"This sale marks the first home sale on Palm Island in 2017, not including the recent sale of a vacant lot.  Activity on the Island has been very slow with the ongoing construction of the roads, but once completed, Palm Island will be absolutely incredible and the construction / roadwork will move to other neighborhoods of Miami Beach. 201 Palm was a very unique property because not only was it situated on a very desirable corner lot, but with the new building codes in Miami Beach, you can no longer build a house of this size on a lot like this, and you also can no longer replicate the private rooftop, which offers 360 degree views of the Bay, skyline and sunsets," said Devin Kay.
