Why The Danton matters
The Danton is a four-story, 2003 condominium of 17 residences on a block of Drexel Avenue in the Flamingo-Lummus part of South Beach. The building has elevator service, garage parking and two-bedroom layouts a few blocks from Lincoln Road and Lummus Park.
With 17 residences, the budget is small and one special assessment is spread over few owners.
South Beach, Flamingo-Lummus
Flamingo-Lummus is the part of South Beach between the Art Deco blocks on Ocean Drive and Collins Avenue and Alton Road. Drexel Avenue runs north-south through it. The Danton sits between 15th and 16th Streets.
Lummus Park and the beach are to the east. Lincoln Road, the pedestrian mall that runs from Collins Avenue to Alton Road, is about two blocks north. Flamingo Park, a large public park with athletic fields, tennis courts and a pool, is a short walk to the west.
The apartment is walkable to the beach, Lincoln Road and the Art Deco district, on a block of low-rise residential buildings. Dining and retail turn over and are not listed.
Architecture and unit composition
The Danton is a four-story building with an elevator and 17 residences.
Unit mix. The record shows two-bedroom, two-bath apartments from about 900 to 1,080 square feet. Square footage in the recorded sales for one unit has differed between sales, so take size from the floor plan, not prior sale records.
Amenity levels. The building has a pool area, a fitness space, a bike room, storage and garage parking.
Building operations
Florida's milestone inspection and structural integrity reserve study (SIRS) rules apply to condominium buildings of three or more stories; this one has four. Ask for the inspection schedule and report, the SIRS and reserve funding, the current budget and recent financial statements, insurance coverage and deductibles, and pending or planned special assessments. With 17 owners, ask how many are investors and whether reserves are funded or waived.
Policy framework
Pet, rental and minimum-lease rules are set by the association; confirm at offer stage. Short-term rental rules in Miami Beach depend on the building's zoning and the association's documents; confirm before assuming any use.
Sales context
One recorded sale, April 2026, at $650,000. It is one sale, not a building price. Pricing varies by floor, parking and condition, and in a 17-unit building one apartment can move the average.
Unit-level transaction history is maintained in The Roebling Research Library and shared with clients during diligence.

Recorded sales history
Recorded transfers for this building in Miami-Dade County public records, back to Sep 2001. Prices reflect the recorded consideration; transfers the Property Appraiser does not qualify as arms-length are shown unmarked. Nominal-consideration paper transfers (deeds into trusts and LLCs, estate and family transfers, corrective deeds) are part of the record but not sales, and are omitted from this table. Recording lags closing, so the newest sales can take several weeks to appear.
