Manhattan, NY LMXD, MSquared and Taconic Partners have released that Miramar, a new development in Inwood, has passed 65% leased. The milestone demonstrates how Miramar stands out in a competitive market with homes that offer high quality design, a full amenity package, and transit access. Leasing for Miramar is being led by Corcoran New Development as the exclusive leasing and marketing agent.

“Achieving 65% leased signals that Miramar is resonating with renters. It’s no surprise since it offers so much outdoor space, beautiful amenities and meticulously designed homes,” said Katherine Kelman, managing director of LMXD. “Miramar is a unique offering on the market, combining a tranquil living experience with incredible access to Inwood’s restaurants, parks and cultural institutions, as well as the rest of New York City. It’s right next to the 1 and A trains, as well as Metro North. We look forward to welcoming new residents to Miramar and are particularly excited about The People’s Theatre, set to open at Miramar this fall.” 

Residences at Miramar are designed with contemporary interiors, featuring large floor-to-ceiling windows to allow ample natural light. Designed by the award-winning Beyer Blinder Belle Architects, the flexible, open plan apartments have in-unit washer and dryers, individually controlled all-electric heating and cooling systems, and recessed LED lighting. Kitchens are outfitted with ivory custom cabinetry, Italian walnut storage cubbies, white quartz countertops, white porcelain tiled backsplash and LG stainless steel appliances. The porcelain tile extends to the bathrooms, which also feature custom medicine cabinets and vanities. Select residences feature oversized showers and closets, and private patios or terraces. 

Miramar features 85,000 s/f of indoor and outdoor amenities. The rooftop terrace includes multiple grilling stations with private dining areas, communal seating, pergolas and 360-degree views of Inwood Park, the skyline and Harlem River. Two landscaped terraces on the 11th floor provide more opportunities for relaxation with an outdoor mister, space for sunbathing and lounging, and more grilling stations and dining areas. Residents also have two fully landscaped courtyard gardens, each with a lawn and lounging areas. The ground floor features a meditation garden. 

The indoor amenity suite offers a fitness center with oversized windows and equipment such as Peloton spin bikes, cardiovascular and strength training machines, and movement studio. A co-working lounge is available to residents, with private zoom booths, conference space and lounge seating. Miramar also features several recreational amenities, including a billiards and gaming lounge, media lounge, two private party rooms with wet bars, a quiet room, a makers / children’s room, a multi-sport simulator room, karaoke lounge and a music rehearsal studio. 

Located at the northern tip of the city borough, Miramar offers access to the waterfront, parks and green spaces, along with neighborhood restaurants and bars. With proximity to the 1 and A Subway lines and Metro-North (University Heights Station), Miramar provides a range of transit options to the rest of New York City and the tri-state area. 

Miramar will serve as a home for The People’s Theatre, one of the largest performing arts organization north of Harlem. Through ensemble-based, multilingual and multigenerational programming, The People’s Theatre offers a powerful artistic platform for immigrants and members of the Latine, Black and Queer communities. The complex will also have space for neighborhood retail and parking. The Miramar name honors the legacy of what was once billed as the world’s largest outdoor saltwater pool — a historic Inwood gem. 

The development features all-electric heating and cooling to champion the city and state’s carbon reduction goals. The project is pursuing a LEED BD+C Silver certification.

Miramar comprises a total of 698 apartments, 40% of which are affordable and were available through a lottery that closed in June 2025. An additional 10% of units are set aside as workforce housing at rents limited to 120 percent of the area median income.

The development is a joint venture among LMXD, MSquared and Taconic Partners. The Community League of the Heights (CLOTH) is the community sponsor. The buildings were designed by Beyer Blinder Belle Architects.
