The Altman Companies, a nationally recognized developer, builder, and manager of exceptional rental apartment communities, recently announced it has closed on the land and construction loan for Altra Kendall, a Luxury Midrise Apartment Community in Miami. The property, located in the heart of Kendall at 9501 SW 137th Avenue, will be near Baptist Health Facilities, Zoo Miami, Gold Coast Railroad Museum, and multiple shopping areas.
“We are excited to begin construction on Altra Kendall,” said Joel Altman, Chairman & co-CEO of The Altman Companies. “For over 53 years, The Altman Companies has developed a portfolio of rental communities that have delivered an Exceptional Living Experience to our residents in Florida and across the country, and we are very proud to begin the development of another upscale, amenity-rich community in Kendall.”
Altra Kendall will be a Class A, 342-unit luxury 6-story mid-rise apartment community, with elevator access, featuring a mix of 1, 2, and 3-bedroom apartment homes with beautifully appointed interiors outfitted with designer finishes and details. Altra Kendall apartment homes will include spa-inspired bathrooms equipped with dual sink vanities, a soaking tub, clear glass shower enclosures, and porcelain tile on the bathroom walls. In addition, the spacious floorplans will come complete with quartz countertops, wood-grain cabinets, porcelain backsplashes, upgraded stainless steel energy-efficient appliances, and front-loading washers and dryers.
Altra Kendall will redefine the highest living standards by bringing residents an “Exceptional Living Experience.” Residents will enjoy an exclusive membership to The Club that allows direct access to a 24/7 fitness center and yoga room, a café lounge with a coffee station, two business centers, a co-working area with a conference room, and a virtual high-tech game room. Additional exclusive amenities will include a resort-style swimming pool surrounded by cabanas and a pavilion with a cooking area that will be the perfect place to unwind and soak up the sun. More amenities include a steam room, and a spa-like wellness treatment room, offering residents the perfect spot to relax and recharge.
Altra Kendall is a pet-friendly community with a gated, off-leash dog park to allow residents to bond and play with their pets. The community will also feature a tot-lot (playground). In addition, Altra Kendall provides convenient services like package concierge and dry-cleaning pickup stations to make life easier for residents.
Altra Kendall will be Florida Green Building Coalition certified. Its sustainable initiatives will include 100% energy-efficient designer lighting, ENERGY STAR® refrigerators and dishwashers, a high-efficiency water heater, sub-metered water stations, and electric car charging stations.
Convenience and prime location are high priorities within the development plan, allowing easy access in all directions with frontage on 137th Avenue. Altra Kendall’s location offers proximity to an abundance of attractions, retail, restaurants, entertainment, schools, and major employment centers. The expansion of West Kendall Baptist Hospital and FIU, along with other retailers, will also increase demand.
“This development marks another significant achievement for The Altman Companies as we develop this exceptional new concept, Altra Kendall, in Miami-Dade County,” added Seth Wise, co-CEO of The Altman Companies.
