Miami-Dade Circuit Judge Bronwyn Miller made it clear: Residents at Miami’s luxury Grove Isle condominiums have a right to continued use of its club’s amenities—even new ones planned for the site—as long as they don’t withhold membership dues from the developer who shelled out $24 million to acquire the property.

Attorneys on both sides lauded Miller’s 32-page order issued Thursday night, shortly before Saturday’s expiration of an emergency injunction preventing developer Eduardo Avila from tearing down the decades-old club to make room for sparkling new condos on Biscayne Bay.
