The construction market in southern Florida is booming, which makes it a good time to develop projects in Miami. “It’s a top-five city,” Kevin Venger says. “There’s a [wide range] of reasons that people want to live here.”
Venger, who has developed projects in the city for the last 20 years, is at work on 1000 Museum Tower, a 62-story mixed-use building. “It’s primarily a condo project, but it does have a retail component down on the ground floor,” he says.
When finished, 1000 Museum Tower will have 83 living units, including four two-story half-floor town-house residences, half-floor residences between levels 15 and 49, and amazing full floor residences from 50 through 59. Its amenities will include a double height main lobby, air-conditioned valet lounge and covered motor court on its ground floor, a pool deck with various pools and cabanas, fitness center and full spa on the eighth and ninth floors, and entertainment room, theatre, private dining room and an aquatic center on its 60th and 61st floors.

McCormick Construction will bring more housing to Burbank, Calif., next year with the completion of Talaria at Burbank.
By Janice Hoppe-Spiers
McCormick Construction is the general contractor for the development of Talaria at Burbank, a premium residential rental community located in the heart of Burbank, Calif. “It is right in the middle of the Media District so since much of the workforce commutes into Burbank, it has gotten a lot of visibility and interest,” President and CEO Mike McCormick says.
Set to open in the first quarter 2018, McCormick Construction says Talaria at Burbank’s future residents will likely consist of people who currently commute into Burbank for work. The Burbank Studios, iHeart Media and Warner Bros. Studios are all a stone’s throw from Talaria at Burbank. The community is also a short distance from The Walt Disney Co. and Universal Studios.
McCormick Construction is a Burbank-based construction and consulting company with more than 100 years of experience in the industry. “We were founded in 1914 and my brother, Steve, and I are the fourth-generation to run the business,” McCormick says. “I think the biggest differentiator for us is that we are a high-touch builder. It’s all about the client relationship and responsiveness.”

With the River Landing development, UrbanX Group is bringing retail to an area of Miami that has great demand.
By Staci Davidson, Senior Editor at Knighthouse Publishing
During the Great Recession, so many contractors and developers had to shut down, reorganize or figure out what else they could do. The market could not support everyone the way it was operating previously, and many companies struggled. This is not really news, but it is great to report on companies that were able to come out the other side of the recession and not only find success, but excel on an entirely new level. UrbanX Group is one of these.
