Demolition Underway At 1900 Biscayne, Where Edgewater Collective Towers Planned

Demolition is now underway at the Edgewater Collective property at 1900 Biscayne property, according to a tweet from Ryan RC Rea.

Edgewater Collective is planned to have three towers, including two at 1900 Biscayne and one at 2000 Biscayne.

Developer Kushner says it will be a “megaproject.” A total of 1,299 luxury rental apartments are planned, along with 24,000 square feet of retail.

Vertical construction is already underway on the first tower at 2000 Biscayne.

There does not yet appear to be a construction permit pending for the second two towers.

City records show that multiple demolition permits have been issued at the 1900 Biscayne property, including for several structures dating back to 1917, 1924, and 1928.

Can’t wait till melo starts theirs across the street. This cycle has been lacking major developments directly on biscayne and this and others is finally changing it.

If it was Melo or Related, who churn out comparable crap, you would be saying they should be given the key to the city.

Too much going on with these towers. You might as well have A/C units on random windows. It looks better than the monstrosity proposed to stick out of the old church across the street, but come on.

The 2000 Biscayne proposal was better with some curves. Instead, we another two Melo-tier turd boxes…

I let you in on a secret. It’s not on waterfront but will have the best water views because Cite in front is a low rise an will be so for the next 100 years.

The city needs to create more pedestrian friendly access. Wider sidewalks and bicycle lanes, which in turn alleviates the traffic and congestion, some more green spaces like parks and local grocery food stores. Overall we need a better urban design before its too late.

These are not award winning looking structures by and means and will date the Miami skyline very quickly.

Look, I’m no fan of the Kushner family but I honestly don’t get the hate these buildings are getting. IMO they look WAY better than literally any Melo tower that has risen to date. These at least have some character.
