Heather Walk Condominium History Class Arrojado Corporation, a California company, began construction of Heather Walk in 1972. Soon after the first Board of Directors was formed which consisted of three employees from Arrojado Corporation. The properties original name, Briar Bay Apartments would later be changed to Heather Walk Condominium. At the time the Heather Walk Declaration of Condominium was recorded in the Public Records of then Dade County, all eight residential buildings had not been completed. Arrojado Corporation promised to complete the project within 12 months of the recording. With most of the construction process nearing completion Arrojado Corporation employed Leadership Housing Inc., a management firm based in Fort Lauderdale Florida, to handle initial unit sales and the day to day affairs of the condominium. Sales of Heather Walk units began in 1973 with the original sales address located in a unit at 9001 SW 138 Street. Eventually the sales office moved to 13701 SW 91 Court. With the final unit sale Arrojado Corporation withdrew Leadership Housing from the property handing absolute authority to the Board of Directors who became self governing on December 31, 1976. Self governing meant enforcing condominium documents without assistance from a management company. Self governing ended when Hurricane Andrew struck Miami Florida on August 24, 1992. The rebuilding of Heather Walk began September 17, 1992 concluding on September 24, 1993. Rudolph/ Libbe Incorporated rebuilt Heather Walk from the damage caused by Hurricane Andrew: total cost $8,370,437.49 having a Relative Value in 2009 equivalent to $12,400,000 as applied to the Consumer Price Index.

The following is a reproduction of the Heather Walk Condominium sales brochure distributed in 1973.

"Get next to everything for next to nothing. At last. Condominium living with a new twist. Heather Walk... A way to get your family into a very posh neighborhood with out getting your finances out of whack. If the idea of luxury at low prices feels strange, don't let it throw you. Heather Walk is the brainchild of Leadership Housing, Inc., and we didn't get to be one of the nation's top 20 builders by compromising quality. Or price. Or new ideas...Now that you know the surroundings are classy, look over our residences. And the super recreation package we've planned. Your own 2-story Clubhouse. With natural fireplace, saunas, billiard room, teen fun room, exercise and game rooms, kitchen, the works. That's inside. Outside, notice where we've planned the open spaces, winding walks, swimming pools and kid's playground. And you probably know already how close you'll be to schools, churches and the fabulous Dadeland Mall. So, look over these floor plans, residence features and down home prices, then tell us: Is Heather Walk the place that young adults and growing families can get next to everything for next to nothing? We think you'll think so."

Separately the brochure goes on to state 'Air conditioning in kitchen' and 'custom, full length drapes' as some of more than 22 unit features that were included in the initial purchase price.
