The Aston Martin Residences in Miami, a luxury 66-story condominium tower co-developed by British automaker Aston Martin, is facing a legal claim over alleged construction defects just two years after its completion.

The 391-unit tower at 300 Biscayne Boulevard Way broke ground in 2017 and was completed in 2024, with individual units selling for as much as $59 million. Control of the condominium association was transferred to non-developer unit owners in March 2025.

The association has now filed a claim under Florida’s Chapter 558 process against the developer, general contractor, and construction and design team. The process gives the parties an opportunity to address alleged defects before a formal lawsuit is filed.

A turnover inspection by Epic Forensics & Engineering reportedly identified numerous issues, including extensive concrete cracking, deteriorating surfaces, unsealed openings, water intrusion, and problems with the building’s post-tension system. Alleged defects also involve fire protection, plumbing, electrical and mechanical systems, waterproofing, elevators, railings, exterior surfaces, and the seawall.

The complaint also raises potential life-safety concerns, citing corrosion and exposed reinforcing steel. It alleges that several balconies were built with improper drainage slopes, contributing to water intrusion and structural deterioration.

One incident cited in the filing occurred on November 24, 2025, when a post-tension grease cap allegedly detached from the building and landed on the pool deck, causing property damage. No one was injured.

David Haber, an attorney for the condominium association, questioned the quality control behind rapidly constructed luxury developments, saying buyers may not always receive what is promised in glossy pre-sales materials.

Riverwalk East Developments rejected the allegations, describing them as unfounded and saying the building was constructed to “premium standards of design and construction.” The developer also accused the association of attempting to divert attention from its own unresolved obligations.

The association is seeking millions of dollars in damages.

Separately, the association filed another complaint in January accusing developer German Coto of failing to deliver promised luxury amenities and alleging that millions of dollars were funneled through undisclosed contracts benefiting the developer and his associates. It is seeking more than $5 million and a review of the building’s financial records.
