South Pointe Towers was built in the heady 1980s, a very, very different time from today, when it would still have been surrounded by a very pre-gentrified South Beach. This one-bedroom loft, with double-height living space and private terrace (ahem, lanai) looking out onto the building’s grounds, was updated much more recently but preserves the building’s original ’80s postmodernist flair.

This one-bedroom loft, with double-height living space and private terrace (ahem, lanai) looking out onto the building’s grounds, was updated much more recently but preserves the building’s original ’80s postmodernist flair. It’s on the market, furnished, for $975,000. Downstairs there’s a new granite kitchen with Bosch appliances and a built-in sound system. Up a custom set of stairs is the open-plan master bedroom and a new marble bath. Outside, a glass block window sits proudly within a ziggurat-inspired orange wall. The ’80s are alive again.
