MIAMI, Fla. — November 12, 2025 — Construction is officially underway on ONE W12, a landmark mixed-use development in Miami’s historic Overtown neighborhood. Developed by PMG, Lion Development Group, and LNDMRK Development, the project will deliver 372 residential units and a new quick-serve restaurant by acclaimed chef Marcus Samuelsson, adding another vibrant chapter to the area’s revitalization.
The highly anticipated community combines contemporary living with cultural authenticity, bridging modern architecture and the deep-rooted history of one of Miami’s oldest neighborhoods. The project represents a new era of residential design that blends hospitality-inspired amenities with urban accessibility and community connection.
Located in the heart of Overtown, ONE W12 will feature fully furnished studio and one-bedroom apartments, along with a limited collection of one-, two-, and three-bedroom townhomes designed for both short-term residents and long-term city dwellers. According to the development team, the building will showcase rooftop amenities, including a garden, pool deck, and fitness center, as well as curated art installations that celebrate Miami’s cultural and artistic energy.
With PMG Residential leading sales, the project has already achieved 97% sellout, highlighting strong demand for downtown Miami residences that combine style, convenience, and community.
“One West Twelve Residences underscores our continued commitment to creating engaging, community-focused developments that elevate and redefine the residential experience for years to come,” said Ryan Shear, Managing Partner at PMG. “This project is a fresh and design-forward concept that we are confident will complement downtown Miami’s lively atmosphere with the historic charm of the area. We look forward to this next chapter of the development and its contribution to the evolution of modern Miami living.”
A signature feature of the new development will be Vibe BBQ, the latest restaurant from celebrity chef and eight-time James Beard Foundation Award winner Marcus Samuelsson. Known globally for his work at Red Rooster Harlem and his focus on community-inspired cuisine, Samuelsson’s addition brings a culinary anchor to the project that ties together food, culture, and design.
The restaurant is expected to serve as a community hub for residents and visitors, offering a welcoming, casual dining experience infused with Samuelsson’s signature blend of flavor and soul. The inclusion of Vibe BBQ reflects the developers’ vision of activating the streetscape and building social spaces that celebrate Overtown’s rich heritage and future vitality.
Beyond luxury residences and modern amenities, ONE W12 is designed with an emphasis on community engagement, walkability, and local culture. Developers say the building’s architecture draws inspiration from Overtown’s historic textures and rhythms, reinterpreting them through contemporary materials and open, light-filled design.
The project aims to support the ongoing revitalization of Overtown by introducing thoughtfully integrated housing and public-facing spaces that invite both residents and neighbors to connect. The developers have also pledged to work with local artists and cultural organizations to ensure that the spirit of Overtown remains central to the development’s identity.
As Miami continues to experience a surge in mixed-use and residential construction, projects like ONE W12 illustrate the balance between innovation and inclusion—showcasing how new growth can align with the city’s cultural legacy while setting new standards for design-forward urban living.
Together, the trio aims to make ONE W12 not just a residential address, but a destination that bridges lifestyle, legacy, and local culture.
