Thomas Kramer played quite a role in the revitalization of South Beach. His developments (Portofino, Yacht Club, Continuum, Murano, Murano Grande, Icon, Apogee) transformed the once-blighted community into a sophisticated, world-class destination. In fact, his own Star Island home is a coveted playground that he’s generous enough to lend out for worthy causes. The Thomas Kramer Foundation has benefited many local and national charities.
