The Euclid Group

What The Euclid Group does

The Euclid Group is a full-service land-use development and real estate consulting firm based in South Florida, founded in 2022 and operating from offices in Miami, West Palm Beach, and Tampa. The firm advises property owners, developers, investors, lenders, and government and education institutions on complex land-use matters, with services spanning master and urban planning, zoning approvals and entitlements, downtown revitalization and placemaking, entertainment and creative district strategy, asset conversion and repositioning, public policy guidance, legislative initiatives, and stakeholder consensus building. The firm is not a law firm but operates in close conjunction with affiliated Shubin Law Group (also led by founder and CEO John K. Shubin), enabling combined strategic advisory and legal representation for complex planning and development projects.

The firm's underlying technology is essentially human-capital driven: it does not build or sell software, APIs, or proprietary platforms. Its competitive differentiation rests on the expertise of its principals and strategic advisors—former city managers, city attorneys, Florida Bar-certified land-use specialists, and senior real estate executives (e.g., former CIO/CEO Americas of Prologis)—and on its deep relationships with municipal decision-makers across Florida. The firm monetizes through professional services engagements (project or retainer based; pricing not publicly disclosed), with notable outcomes including a creative air-rights solution that helped unlock a $1 billion Fort Lauderdale condo and five-star resort project, delivering over $900 million in additional 100-year tax revenue to the City of Fort Lauderdale and avoiding an estimated 17.5% valuation discount on leased-land condominium sales. Marketing is driven by event sponsorships (ULI Florida Summit, University of Miami Real Estate Impact Conference, Florida Land Use Conference), thought-leadership publishing, and team-member industry recognition.
