Leadership is not only about titles. It is about showing up, listening first, doing the work, and staying connected to the people, chapters, and communities we serve.

As a candidate for AIA Florida Vice President, I am grateful for the opportunity to continue building bridges across our components, supporting emerging leaders, and elevating the role of architects in resilience, preparedness, and community recovery.

My leadership has always been rooted in service, mentorship, and follow-through – and I look forward to learning from chapters across Florida, understanding what matters most to them, and helping move our shared ideas forward with purpose and heart.

Naomi Harrison

We are incredibly proud to celebrate one of our very own — Zamorah Barley, an AIM and BAM @bam.miami student at Design and Architecture Senior High @dashschool , who has been awarded a Full Scholarship to Cornell University's City Visionaries Summer Program — a $13,000 value with no tuition due!

This five-week program, hosted by Cornell's prestigious College of Architecture, Art, and Planning (AAP) in New York City, gives high school students the opportunity to explore architecture, urban design, and the future of cities through real-world challenges and hands-on design studios.

Zamorah's achievement is a testament to her talent, dedication, and the power of community.

AIA Miami is honored to have played a role in her journey through the AIM and BAM programs, and we cannot wait to see everything she builds next.

Designing today. Building tomorrow. 🏙️

The building comprises 363 residential units and more than 14,000 square feet of retail and restaurant space along Biscayne Boulevard. A comprehensive amenity program includes two swimming pools, a spinning studio and game room, a 2,400+ SF fitness center, a 1,400+ SF spa, a 1,400 SF bar and lounge, and over 10,600 SF of recreation space across the 9th-floor deck and rooftop. The structure features a 21-story tower above an 8-story podium with a parking garage accommodating over 600 spaces. Project completion is anticipated in summer 2026.

South Florida’s development landscape is being res

South Florida’s development landscape is being reshaped by the realities of extreme weather, from rising temperatures and flood risk to escalating insurance costs. In this environment, resilience has emerged as a core economic driver - fundamentally influencing how projects are designed, financed, and evaluated.

Developers are increasingly viewing resilient, high-performance buildings not just as a sustainability measure, but as a capital strategy that strengthens asset durability, supports long-term performance, and aligns with evolving investor expectations.
Resilience-driven strategies can enhance operational efficiency, reduce energy demand, lower operating costs, and help stabilize insurance exposure - ultimately positioning assets for stronger financial performance and market competitiveness.

This forum explores how resilience is shaping the next generation of South Florida real estate, reframing building performance through the lens of value creation, risk mitigation, and long-term asset optimization.
