Related announced over the summer that it planned to develop the Arquitectonica-designed Hyde Midtown tower on the property. The 31-story, 372-foot-tall building, considered a companion to SLS Hotel in South Beach, will have 440 units – 400 condo units and 40 hotel rooms. Of the condo units, most will be two-bedrooms. A 526-space parking garage and nearly 22,000 square feet of retail space are also part of initial development plans.

Related has had quite a busy week. Reports that the company has a $100 million contract to buy four waterfront acres at 444 Brickell Avenue surfaced on Monday. It also obtained approval from the West Palm Beach planning board for a 400-room convention center hotel project.
