Capone bought the waterfront house for $40,000 in 1928.

He died there in 1947 from a heart attack.

Developer Todd Michael Glaser and Nelson Gonzalez bought the residence in August for $10.75 million with plans to demolish it and replace it with a more modern project, but preservationists in Miami Beach balked at their plans.

Glaser says the offer came out of the blue.
