On the heels of renovating a rental tower on the Miami River, developer Lissette Calderon is now planning to build an apartment building in Allapattah, The Real Deal has learned.

A permit application filed with the city of Miami shows Calderon’s TCG Allapattah 17 plans a 13-story, 192-unit building at 1569-1652 Northwest 17th Avenue.

Her entity paid $1.7 million for the property, currently home to a laundromat, in July 2017, records show. The city of Miami recorded a lien against the property in June due to graffiti.

Calderon, president, and CEO of Neology Life, declined to comment on the development, saying only that she plans to continue to focus on emerging neighborhoods in the urban core with the goal of creating a rental portfolio in Miami and other cities. She said it is too early to name the other destinations.
