One Page, Two Start Dates
The tracker page for Fouquet's Hotel and Residences, Miami Design District carries a March 2026 groundbreaking and a correction that says the tower has not broken ground. Both sit on the same page, verified 22 October 2026. Each cites a different publisher.
The Detail Line States a Start
The details block reads: “25 floors, 143 residences and 85 hotel keys. Broke ground March 2026, completing 2030.” The chips above it read 03.26 for start and 2030 for completion.
March 2026 is also the month the YIMBY record places the branding. That article says the team filed plans in January and “the branding came just two months later”. The start chip and the branding month coincide. The page's own chronology draws no line between them.
The Milestone Line Names a Source That Reports a Filing
Under the heading “The story so far”, a milestone reads “Broke ground Mar 2026” with a sentence saying the project broke ground as a 25-story tower with 143 condos and 85 hotel keys, targeting late-2027 completion. The citation is floridayimby.com.
The article behind that citation is dated 25 April 2026. Its title reads “‘The Miami Design Residences by Fouquet's' Set for Miami Design District at 39 NE 39th St, Miami, FL”. Its body reports a proposal at filing stage: plans filed in January, a 1.07-acre site, 143 condos from about 910 to about 4,350 square feet, more than 40,000 square feet of amenities, 85 hotel keys, 20 hotel-condo units and just over 55,000 square feet of commercial space.
That article carries no groundbreaking and no late-2027 completion. It also postdates the March start it is cited for by one month.
The Correction Names a Second Document
A correction entry on the same timeline reads: “project is pre-construction — sales just launched April 2026, opening targeted 2030; not yet broken ground.” A further note on the entry records delivery moved from 2027 to 2030 and holds 85 hotel keys. The citation is therealdeal.com.
The Real Deal returns HTTP 403 and a Cloudflare challenge on the routes tried, so that article could not be read for this check. What the tracker records of it is a pre-construction status, an April 2026 sales launch, a 2030 opening and a 2027-to-2030 delivery correction.
A separate milestone cites the same publisher for the sales launch: 143 residences, David Chipperfield design, prices from $1.8 million.
A Third Statement on the Same Page
The question section answers the status directly: the project “is an announced development that has not yet started construction, targeting completion in 2030.” That answer agrees with the correction and with the YIMBY body.
Two statements on the page describe a proposal. One describes a groundbreaking. The two that agree with each other are the correction and the question answer.
The October Entry Adds a Permit Stage
The page now carries a fourth dated entry. It was published 22 October 2026 and reads: demolition permits plus phased vertical, site-work and master construction permits filed with the City of Miami, naming Mobius Construction as general contractor, with the vertical, site and master permits still pending approval.
The Florida YIMBY article behind that entry runs at “3995 N. Miami Avenue”, against the 39 NE 39th Street address in the details block. It describes two buildings of 12 and 24 stories reaching 185 and 309 feet, a joint venture of Constellation Hotels Holding, Raycliff Capital, Miami Design District Associates and Fort Partners, demolition applications covering more than a dozen low-rise structures, and plans filed with the Urban Development Review Board for 143 condominiums, an 85-key hotel, 20 condo-hotel units, more than 50,000 square feet of ground-floor retail and 178 parking spaces.
Permits filed is not construction started. The entry names no permit number, no issue date and no approval date, and it states that the three build permits are pending.
Acreage Moves Between One and Two
The tracker describes “a roughly two-acre site”. The YIMBY article behind the groundbreaking milestone puts the site at 1.07 acres. Commercial Observer, reporting on 12 March 2026, describes a 12-story, 85-room hotel connected to a 25-story, 143-unit condo tower and records a January filing for a special area plan with 55,089 square feet of ground-floor commercial space and a 171-spot garage. The October YIMBY article puts the same retail space above 50,000 square feet and the garage at 178 spaces. None of the four reconciles the acreage.
The Developer List Moves Too
The tracker's developer field names Raycliff Capital, Miami Design District Associates and Fort Partners. Its about text adds Dacra and Fort Partners by principal. YIMBY lists Raycliff Capital, Fort Partners, Constellation Hotels Holdings and Miami Design District Associates. Commercial Observer adds Dacra, L Catterton, Constellation Hotels Holding, Raycliff and Fort Partners, and records a 15-building portfolio purchase for nearly $165 million in 2022. The October YIMBY article puts the acquisition at approximately $170 million.
Constellation appears in both trade reports and in neither part of the tracker's developer field.
The Check an Operator Can Repeat
Three steps settle the status on any record page of this kind. Open the cited article and search its body for the sentence the milestone prints. Read the page's own question answer. Compare the completion year in the milestone line against the completion year in the header.
Applied here, the first step fails on the groundbreaking entry. The second and third agree with the correction. A record page can hold a withdrawn claim and a corrected one at once, and the citation is where the difference shows.
What Remains Unconfirmed
No page read here carries an issued building permit, an inspection record or a certificate of completion. The March 2026 entry rests on an April article about a filed plan. The October entry rests on permit applications the same page describes as pending. The 2030 target rests on a publisher that blocks automated readers.
Until a permit issue notice or a first-party start notice appears, the defensible line is an announced project that has not started construction, with a 2030 completion target. That line matches two of the page's four statements and every document opened for this check.
