South Florida Poised for Birth of Casino Gambling

By FRED A. BERNSTEIN
Published: December 27, 2011
To read the article go to: The New York Times


MIAMI — When the Florida Legislature returns from its holiday recess, it will consider a bill to allow three Las Vegas-style casino resorts to be built in the southern part of the state. Lobbyists for the gambling industry have swarmed Tallahassee, trying to ensure that the bill passes.

But the mere possibility of casino gambling has already had an impact on commercial real estate in Miami-Dade and Broward Counties. The biggest single move came last May when Genting, a casino company based in Malaysia, bought the Miami Herald building, overlooking Biscayne Bay, for $236 million.

Genting released designs of what it hoped to build on the site: an extravaganza called Resorts World Miami, which in addition to a casino could have up to 5,000 guest rooms, 1,000 condominiums, 100 restaurants and luxury shops and a 3.6-acre rooftop lagoon that looks like something from “The Little Mermaid.” The project would cost $3.8 billion, according to Christian Goode, the president of Resorts World Miami. (The bill requires an investment of at least $2 billion per project.)

And last month, the CIM Group, a real estate investment company based in Los Angeles, bought a stake in a partnership that plans to develop Miami Worldcenter, a 21.9-acre mixed-use project in downtown Miami.

The partnership has received master plan zoning approval for a nine-block, 11 million-square-foot development that, according to its news release, “could easily accommodate a gaming component.”

The Miami Worldcenter site is now mostly parking lots and weeds. Plans for that development were announced in 2008, but the project was shelved when the recession hit. Sissy DeMaria, a publicist for Miami Worldcenter Associates, a joint venture between the South Florida-based Falcone Group and Centurion Partners, wrote in an e-mail that — unlike the Genting complex — “the Miami Worldcenter has all of its permits in place and is ‘shovel ready.’ ”

Already, the casino operator Las Vegas Sands has expressed interest in operating a gambling-based resort at Miami Worldcenter, Andy Abboud, the vice president for government affairs for Las Vegas Sands, wrote in an e-mail.

And Genting has continued its buying spree, spending several hundred million dollars on parcels adjacent to the Miami Herald site.

One of the purchases was the Omni, a mixed-use development that includes 1.5 million square feet — much of it a defunct mall — and a 2,700-space parking garage, where it said it could get a slot machine casino up and running in a matter of months.

Colin Au, a Genting principal, told The Miami Herald, “The Omni is what’s called a decorator-ready solution.” He said Genting was taking “a calculated risk,” in buying the properties before the Legislature has voted on the gambling bill.

Mr. Goode of Genting wrote in an e-mail that the company would develop Resorts World with or without gambling, but that the timeline would be “significantly accelerated” should the Legislature approve the casino component.

The Omni facility would resemble the Resorts World facility that opened at Aqueduct racetrack in Queens in October with some 5,000 video “slot machines” and electronic games, including baccarat tables managed by robotic dealers. Genting estimated that the proposed casino at the Omni would create 5,000 jobs, while its entire Resorts World project would create about 30,000.

But the mega-resorts could be bad news for established businesses in the Miami area, because they tend to provide their customers with everything they need under one roof.

“They’re going to be saying, ‘Here’s a free room, go downstairs and gamble,’ ” said Marty Z. Margulies, a prominent South Florida developer, explaining why other area hotels might lose business from gambling, rather than gain it.

The development of one or both resorts could also threaten the Miami Beach Convention Center, which at 640,000 square feet is considered too small for many gatherings. Genting plans to include some 700,000 square feet of meeting space in its Resorts World complex, while the Miami Worldcenter developers have floated the number 1.5 million square feet.

Either would be serious competition for the Miami Beach facility, which each year hosts Art Basel. It was once the nation’s fourth-largest center but is now the 27th largest.

In part to compete with the possible newcomers, Miami Beach is considering an expansion of its center. The giant firm Arquitectonica (which is also designing the Resorts World complex) was hired by the city to study the possibility of doubling the size of the convention center; its report estimated the cost of the project at $648 million.

It is unclear where Miami Beach will get the money. The city manager, Jorge M. Gonzalez, has been meeting with potential partners, one of whom, the casino magnate Steve Wynn, offered to pay the entire cost of the new center if he could build his own casino near it, according to news reports.

But just two weeks ago, the Miami Beach City Commission voted unanimously to oppose the gambling expansion. (The state law would require local approval before a casino can be built.) The vote brought cheers from a standing-room-only crowd, which included local business owners.

One major hotelier said the decision could put Miami Beach at a disadvantage. “If casinos are approved for the city of Miami, Miami Beach should have the opportunity to have casino gaming in a luxury resort right on the beach,” said Phil Goldfarb, the president of the Fontainebleau Miami Beach, which with 1,500 rooms is by far the city’s largest hotel.

Gambling’s effect on residential property values is another question. Properly planned, “casino development would enhance real estate values in South Florida,” said Philip Spiegelman, a principal of ISG, a realty company that provides marketing for large condominium developers. (Mr. Spiegelman has a partnership with the Related Group; that company’s chairman, Jorge M. Pérez, was one of the sellers of the Omni Center.)

But Diane Lieberman, a leading condominium broker in Miami and Miami Beach, said she did not think the arrival of gambling would have any effect on the condominium market. She said she and her husband, Alan Lieberman, learned that lesson the hard way, buying about 10 houses in Atlantic City when gambling became legal there. “The prices didn’t go up,” she said, adding that gambling “didn’t improve the area. It just added casinos.”

Stunning plan that would forever change the face of downtown Miami

Genting set to reveal Miami plans today...

In a stunning plan that would forever change the face of downtown Miami — and perhaps energize a lackluster local economy — the Genting Group on Wednesday unveiled the details of its massive resort complex on the site of the Miami Herald building.

The size of Genting's project: enormous. There are four proposed hotel towers, and two soaring condominiums. There will also be high-end retail and an entertainment complex — perhaps eventually including a casino — that would contain 50 restaurants and nightclubs.

The plans, developed by Miami's famed Arquitectonica design firm, also include convention space. In total, it's an estimated 10 million square feet.
The price: Super-sized. The early estimates are for a $3 billion cost, but company officials concede it may rise. The company, which owns half of Miami-based Norwegian Cruise Lines, has already spent around $300 million just on land assembly. That includes $236 million for the Herald building, which would be torn down.

The buildings, which would rise just east of Biscayne Boulevard beginning at about Northeast 15th Street, incorporate the site's unique environment. Most notably, there is the high-rise density of an urban core. But the buildings' design details include curved, sail-like contours that are mindful of the natural wonders of Biscayne Bay, which the project would overlook.

"They actually look like fish," quipped Marc Sarnoff, the Miami city commissioner whose district includes the development site. Sarnoff said the project's striking features include its waterfront access and its plans to integrate with the adjacent bayfront Bicentennial Park.

"There's really nothing to compare it to," said Sarnoff, who quickly added: "The closest thing is Swire."

Sarnoff was referring to Swire Pacific's proposed $700 million mixed-use CitiCentre project in Miami's Brickell area. It's billed as a pioneering urban retail destination that will ultimately have 4.6 million square feet of space. Arquitectonica is also the architect on CitiCentre.

Swire, which developed the high-end enclave of Brickell Key, is, like Genting, an Asian-based conglomerate. And the Genting project unveiled Wednesday draws upon some of the cutting-edge architecture being built in the Far East.
Like the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre, which hugs Victoria Harbor, the Genting project has bracing views of a body of water inextricably linked with the host city's history.

Like Festival Walk, a wildly successful Hong Kong mixed-use center developed by Swire and designed by Arquitectonica, the Genting project would provide a virtually self-contained urban environment in a climate given to tropical heat and rains.
Swire recently sold Festival Walk for $2.4 billion.

JOB CREATION

Design elements aside, it is the job creation element that most excites Frank Nero, head of the Beacon Council economic development agency. "Short-term, it means construction jobs, and that's where we need them," said Nero. In fact, Genting estimates somewhere between 15,000 and 20,000 building trades positions will be created by the undertaking.

The timing would be fortuitous. Construction employment in Miami-Dade County in July was 31,500 in July, according to state figures. That's down 43 percent from July 2007, when the real estate boom was cresting.

Long-term, Genting expects the resort to create 30,000 permanent positions. "Clearly, having a world-class resort, whether gambling or not, would be another feather in the cap," Nero said. Noting that Genting is moving ahead at the same time as Swire, Nero added: "When you reach critical mass, these things tend to build on one another," he said.

Although current Florida law would preclude casino gambling on the site, the Florida Legislature is expected to take up the issue during its session that starts in January. But Genting officials described gambling as an important — but added — amenity.

Jack Lowell, vice president of Flagler Real Estate Services in Coral Gables and a longtime veteran of the Miami property market, added that the Genting and Swire developments represent a potentially seismic shift in Miami's global economic ties.
Although the city has long drawn capital from Latin America and, to a lesser degree, Europe, it increasingly is forging deeper bonds with rising economic powers in Asia.

"Genting has impressive financial capability and it has identified Miami as an international city it wants to have a major presence in," he said. Lowell was one of a number of community leaders who recently traveled to Genting's resorts in Asia. They were "unbelievable," he said.

"The next generation of planes can fly directly to Miami from Asia," he said, which should further cement ties. "In the past it was a little too far, and you had to change planes."

Miami Beach Makes Forbes List Of America's Most Expensive ZIp Codes in the US

Fisher Island just ranked by Forbes as #37 of America's most expensive zip codes in the United States, with a median home price of $2,295,291. Forbes list also included: Key Biscayne, Coral Gables, Indian Creek and Bal Harbour.

About 35% of the ZIP codes in our index saw median prices increase or stay flat, but that's likely because more high-priced homes are coming on the market, while more affordable housing continues to falter.

Miami where housing prices have plummeted and foreclosures continue to mount, still contains some of the most expensive homes in the country, with four ZIPs on the list, including Fisher Island, in the No. 37 spot. This ZIP code, for celebrity enclave Fisher Island, boasts a median home sale price of $2,295,291.

"We have yet to see mortgage defaults climb aggressively into higher-priced homes, but there are some signs that those could hit in next twelve months," says Simonsen. "If those mortgage resets drive inventory at the higher end, that would cause major problems."
