Riviera Country Club in Coral Gables has broken ground on a 60,000-square-foot, two-story clubhouse that will accompany the property’s newly renovated 18-hole golf course.

The $37 million project is expected to be completed in fall 2019 and will feature a 8,000-square-foot fitness center, an aquatic complex with a 25-meter lap pool and family pool, a 6,000-square-foot event room that will accommodate 400 members and other amenities.

Peacock+Lewis LLC designed the clubhouse, which will also have wrap-around terraces and views of the golf course, a 2,500-square-foot dining room and ceremonial entrance from Blue Road. Miami-based Beauchamp Construction is building the project.

The 70-year-old Riviera Country Club at 1155 Blue Road in January 2016 reopened its golf course after completing a $9.6 million renovation.

“We are extremely excited that we have officially broken ground on this brand new, contemporary Clubhouse,” said Board President Frank Vilar. “Its state-of-the-art facilities will be enjoyed by us and future generations.”
