Cassia, the most anticipated new development in Coral Gables by Alta Developers, has planted its future, breaking ground on its seminal Coral Gables condominium located in Miami’s fashionable Merrick Park District at 4011 Salzedo Ave.

Showcasing a collection of 174 exquisite, fully furnished turnkey residences in a chic cosmopolitan setting, Cassia is designed by the award-winning architectural firm Behar Font & Partners. Each masterfully designed and furnished by RH, Cassia offers a curated selection of one-, two-, and three-bedroom units spanning between 662 and 1,461 square feet, featuring sleek European appliances, RH furnishings, and Italian cabinetry by Italkraft that will define daily living at Cassia.

“Today marks an exciting milestone for our team. We are beyond excited to see construction begin to take shape,” said Raimundo Onetto, principal and CEO of Alta Developers. “Cassia will bring a new level of sophistication and convenience to Coral Gables, and we look forward to seeing our vision evolve and come to life. At only 12 stories tall, we expect a fairly quick construction timeline.”

Cassia offers an array of world-class amenities designed by IDDI to elevate everyday living.

From a welcoming front desk reception to resort-style offerings, every detail ensures convenience and comfort. Residents will enjoy segmented lobbies, an executive lounge and business center, a serene pool area with outdoor barbecues, fitness studios, and a state-of-the-art wellness center featuring a treatment room, steam room, dry sauna, and indoor pool.

Located adjacent to Merrick Park, Cassia residents enjoy a premier shopping and dining experience with over 100 retailers and restaurants, including luxury brands such as Neiman Marcus, Nordstrom, Gucci, and Tiffany & Co. Additionally, Merrick Park features esteemed fitness and wellness establishments such as Equinox Fitness, SoulCycle, and Elemis Spa.


Prices start from $700,000, with sales exclusively managed by Cervera Real Estate.

“Cassia offers a truly unmatched combination of location, luxury, lifestyle, and flexibility,” said Alicia Cervera Lamadrid, managing partner and principal of Cervera Real Estate. “Just steps from the vibrant Shops at Merrick Park and minutes from Coral Gables’ top schools, cultural attractions, and renowned dining, it provides the ideal setting for residents to fully embrace the Coral Gables lifestyle while in residence and enjoy the convenience of leasing it when away.

“Cassia is further elevating this thriving neighborhood and is set to deliver an exceptional living experience,” Cervera Lamadrid added.
