Office-to-residential conversions are playing an increasingly important role in addressing housing shortages across the country. But as recent industry headlines have demonstrated, these projects are among the most technically demanding in #commercialrealestate.

Having completed numerous historic restorations and complex #adaptivereuse projects over the years, The Peebles Corporation understands that every existing building presents its own unique engineering challenges. Projects such as the historic Royal Palm Hotel redevelopment in #MiamiBeach, which integrated preservation with significant new construction, underscore the level of planning, structural expertise, and coordination these projects demand. Successful conversions require far more than architectural vision. They demand a comprehensive understanding of structural systems, meticulous planning, and disciplined execution.

Adding new floors, mechanical systems, plumbing, and residential infrastructure fundamentally changes how a building performs. Structures that have stood safely for decades were often designed for entirely different uses, making rigorous structural analysis and engineering expertise essential to every stage of redevelopment.

Adaptive reuse will continue to play an important role in the future of our cities. But experience matters. Precision matters. And above all, public safety must remain the foundation of every successful project.

The conversation around housing affordability often centers on pricing, but the long-term solution begins with increasing housing supply.

The proposed 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act represents a bipartisan effort to remove barriers that have slowed housing production for years. From streamlining permitting and environmental reviews to encouraging redevelopment of underutilized properties and expanding housing options, the legislation is designed to make it easier to build the housing our communities need.

Although no single piece of legislation will solve the housing crisis on its own, and the bill has yet to become law, it represents a meaningful step in the right direction. Addressing the nation's housing shortage will require thoughtful policy reform, collaboration across all levels of government, and strong public-private partnerships. Together, these efforts can help create more pathways to homeownership and expand housing opportunities for millions of Americans.

At The Peebles Corporation, we've long believed that solving today's housing challenges requires more than capital alone. It requires thoughtful policy, strong public-private partnerships, and a development process that enables communities to grow responsibly while meeting long-term housing demand.

Every great property has a story.

Since opening its doors in 1926, @BathClub's iconic entrance has welcomed generations of members, distinguished guests, business leaders, and even U.S. presidents, while remaining one of Miami Beach's most recognizable architectural landmarks.

As the property celebrates its centennial, it also stands as a reminder of how communities evolve. Once a private club defined by exclusion, The Bath Club today reflects the progress that comes from breaking barriers and creating places that are more welcoming, connected, and representative of the communities they serve.

As the property's owner and steward, The Peebles Corporation is proud to preserve its rich history while investing in its future. Because great real estate isn't just about what you build. It's also about honoring the past while helping shape what's next.

@LREDevelopment, the affordable housing arm of The Peebles Corporation, is advancing plans to redevelop the historic Barclay property in Miami Beach's Collins Park neighborhood.

The proposed six-story mixed-income community would bring residential units, neighborhood-serving retail, restored historic features, and new amenities to a site that has remained vacant for more than a decade.

The project reflects Legacy's commitment to creating housing opportunities while thoughtfully revitalizing underutilized properties and preserving meaningful pieces of our community's history.

We look forward to working with the City of #MiamiBeach and local stakeholders as the project moves through the approval process.

Governors across the country will begin the #OpportunityZone 2.0 designation process on July 1, 2026 — with hundreds of billions in private capital at stake and the potential to shape the next decade of investment in America's historically underserved communities.

States will favor nominations tied to credible projects, committed sponsors, and a realistic financing path — with public-private partnerships playing a key role in aligning private capital with public goals.

In high-growth markets like #Miami and across Florida, where affordability, infrastructure, and long-term urban planning continue to become increasingly important, these programs could play a major role in shaping future development opportunities.

This is the intersection where The Peebles Corporation has always operated — bringing institutional development expertise to communities that need it most. Affirmative Development isn't just a value. It's a competitive advantage in exactly these moments.

While many markets typically experience a seasonal slowdown during the summer months, South Florida’s luxury residential market continues showing remarkable strength, fueled by ongoing wealth migration, limited waterfront inventory, and sustained demand from high-net-worth buyers.

Recent reports highlight continued interest from technology executives and out-of-state buyers seeking turnkey luxury condominiums, waterfront estates, and development opportunities across markets like Miami Beach, Fisher Island, Surfside, and Palm Beach.

As inventory constraints continue pushing buyers toward custom development and land acquisition, the long-term value of well-positioned sites and thoughtfully executed projects becomes even more important.

At The Peebles Corporation, we continue closely watching how migration trends, supply constraints, and evolving buyer preferences are shaping the future of South Florida’s residential and mixed-use development landscape.

This morning, our Chairman & CEO, Don Peebles joined @FoxNews "Mornings with Maria" to discuss the continued economic growth happening across #Florida & the broader migration trends reshaping major U.S. markets.

The conversation touched on why high-net-worth individuals and businesses continue relocating from states like NY & California, as well as the long-term economic implications of tax policy, population shifts, & fiscal discipline.

As these trends continue influencing investment, development, & housing demand nationwide, understanding how cities position themselves for long-term growth will remain increasingly important.

As cities continue adapting to changing office usage patterns, housing shortages, and evolving consumer behavior, the next generation of development will likely be more integrated, flexible, and community-oriented than ever before.

Across the industry, developers and municipalities are increasingly rethinking how residential, hospitality, office, retail, and public spaces can work together to create more active and resilient urban environments.

At The Peebles Corporation, we’ve long believed successful projects should evolve alongside the communities and cities they serve, balancing economic performance with long-term impact and usability.

Supporting the communities where we develop projects goes far beyond buildings and infrastructure.

At The Peebles Corporation, we believe investing in future generations is just as important as investing in cities. Co-founded by the Peebles family more than a decade ago, CARE Elementary in #Miami is a private school dedicated to expanding educational opportunity and supporting student growth.

During #LiteracyWeek our Communications Director, Kendall Pryles, participated in the school’s reading activities and ongoing literacy initiatives, helping create meaningful opportunities for students both inside and outside the classroom.

The rapid growth of AI infrastructure is driving unprecedented demand for data centers and fundamentally changing how developers, investors, and institutions think about power, land, infrastructure, and the future of cities themselves.

At the same time, #AI is transforming how opportunities are sourced, analyzed, and executed across the broader investment landscape.

These themes were front and center at last month’s https://t.co/OULZAJv2au USA conference, where leaders across real estate, technology, infrastructure, and urban innovation came together to discuss how emerging technologies are reshaping the built environment.

That evolving landscape is also part of the vision behind Donahue Douglas, Don Peebles’ investment firm co-founded with Douglas McNeely, combining a modern, data-driven platform and patent-pending AI technology to identify opportunities and create long-term value.

As technology continues accelerating change across industries, the intersection of AI, infrastructure, and real estate will only become more important in shaping the future of development.

Charlotte’s housing affordability crisis is reaching a tipping point — fewer than 1 in 5 homes sold last year were affordable, and most families can no longer buy in their own city.

At Legacy Real Estate Development, the affordable housing arm of The Peebles Corporation, we’re committed to tackling this challenge head-on — turning opportunity into access through inclusive development and public-private partnerships.

Creating homes for every income level isn’t just good policy — it’s essential for a thriving, equitable city.
