Icon South Beach paired developer Jorge Perez' Related Group with the contemporary design genius of Philippe Starck, and brought innovative concepts where the original owners were able to choose from four different interior design packages. These decorpackages included options such as flooring, lighting, closet systems, countertops, custom lighting, window treatments, and other design amenities in individual condos. The Icon South Beach condominium was conceived as a contemporary follow up to The Murano Grande. A unique luxury building- with it's own design, architectural style, and amenities- located at 450 Alton Road, just South of Fifth Street.
Located North of the Murano Grande, Icon Miami Beach consists of two towers with incredible views of Downtown Miami, the city of Miami Beach, the Atlantic Ocean and Biscayne Bay. The condoniminium building consists of One, two and three bedroom floorplans, all of which are available all with floor-to-ceiling windows and sliding glass doors leading to oversized terraces. Featuring the contemporary and minimalist decor of Philippe Starck, Icon South Beach features two pools, one of the largest private fitness centers in all of Miami Beach, a private library, and many other amenities such as private massage rooms, and private his and her locker rooms. Located in the prestigious South of Fifth Street neighborhood, adjacent to the Miami Beach marina and the recently completed Fifth and Alton Shopping Center. This is one of the most spectacular locations and one ofSouth Beach's hottest addresses. Residents are just five minutes away from the Beach, South Pointe Park, and even Publix supermarket!
