Conexión con Miami
Rowan has fueled Miami Beach's Sunset Harbour neighborhood growth by bankrolling Deco Capital's Eighteen Sunset project, securing $60M in loans for 40,000 sq ft of Class A office space, retail, and a $60M penthouse expected by late 2023. His investments faced legal hurdles with neighbors like Beach Towing but resolved, advancing luxury development amid high demand for premium office space over $100 psf. Personal ownership of high-end condos like One Ocean underscores his role in elevating South Florida's real estate market.
