SHVO, Rosewood and Peter Marino to Renovate The Raleigh, Miami Beach

(05 May 2022, 12:28 +07)  SHVO, a New York-based real estate development and investment firm, has partnered with Rosewood Hotels & Resorts to breathe new life into the iconic Miami Beach property, The Raleigh.

Located at 1775 Collins Avenue, the re-imagined, three-acre retreat with 220 feet of ocean frontage in the heart of Miami’s vibrant Art Deco district will feature three distinct components designed by architect Peter Marino:

- A 60-room luxury hotel managed by Rosewood;

- Rosewood Residences Miami Beach, a newly constructed 17-storey oceanfront tower featuring 44 residences; and

- A private member’s club offering beachfront dining and leisure.

The Raleigh Miami Beach

“As the steward of Miami’s most iconic property, The Raleigh, I am thrilled to partner with preeminent luxury hotel brand, Rosewood Hotels & Resorts, and world-renowned architect Peter Marino to reimagine and secure the rich legacy of The Raleigh, creating a new, unparalleled hospitality experience in Miami Beach,” said Michael Shvo, Chairman and CEO of SHVO. “We are excited to introduce the hotel as well as the residences at The Raleigh, which offer the unique opportunity, for the first time ever, to live on property.”

Originally constructed in the 1940s by Miami architect Lawrence Murray Dixon, The Raleigh will be complemented with the addition of its two neighbors, the Richmond and South Seas Hotels which SHVO purchased in 2019 with Deutsche Finance America.

Peter Marino is helming the design and restoration of the property in collaboration with Miami-based Kobi Karp Architecture.

Working closely with the Miami Beach Historic Preservation Board, meticulous restoration plans are now underway and include one of Miami’s most iconic swimming pools known for its curvaceous design and tropical foliage, once designated the most beautiful pool in America by Time Magazine.

The Raleigh’s famed gathering places, the Martini Bar and Tiger Room, will also be restored and reborn.

“This fresh, historic restoration and renovation of The Raleigh joins a private beach club with a Latin beat and elegant residences of demure black, white and ivory. This mixture is the best Miami cocktail that I can imagine,” said Peter Marino.
