The most architecturally serious oceanfront building in Miami, in the least fashionable part of the beach.
This page describes the residence. Whether it is available, and on what terms, changes without notice. Contact the desk at Miami Dossier for the current position on any building we cover.
The upper residences of Renzo Piano Building Workshop’s only Miami residential project, on the oceanfront at the northern end of Miami Beach.
The building is organised around horizontal planes and planted terraces rather than a glass curtain wall, which is a genuinely different architectural approach from everything around it.
A park on one side means the outlook on that flank cannot be built out. That is rare and it is durable.
We publish no figure. Sales here have been reported periodically in the trade press and we have not verified a specific penthouse recording to our standard.
The building is delivered and has traded in resale, so recorded comparables exist. The desk can pull them.
North Beach trades below Mid-Beach and South Beach generally, which is context rather than a valuation of this building specifically.
Delivered, on the North Beach oceanfront, adjoining a public park that provides a protected outlook on one side.
Renzo Piano Building Workshop is among the most significant practices to have built residentially in Miami, and this is the only example.
North Beach is quieter and less developed than the stretches south of it, with less at street level. That is the appeal and the limitation.
The adjoining park is the most valuable feature of the site and it is worth confirming its status and permanence directly rather than assuming a park is forever.
Planted terraces are a maintenance programme. Ask who maintains the planting, whether it is a common expense or an owner obligation, and what the irrigation and drainage arrangements are.
A serious architectural building in a less established location depends on the location developing in the direction you expect. That is a real question about North Beach worth forming a view on.
A protected outlook adjoining a significant piece of architecture is a durable combination, and the durability rests on the park’s status, which is checkable. Contact the desk at Miami Dossier and we will confirm it and pull the recorded comparables in the building.
We hold no listings and we are not the developer. Contact the desk at Miami Dossier and we will tell you what is actually available at the top of this building, what the last comparable trade was, and where we would not proceed. Where a question is legal, tax or structuring, we introduce you to advisers who handle that properly rather than answering it ourselves.
