Edgewater Gets Another: 42-Story Tower At 1775 Biscayne Submitted To UDRB

Plans have been revealed for a 42-story apartment building at 1775 Biscayne Boulevard.

Developer LCOR said in a press release that it had already submitted the plans to Miami’s Urban Development Review Board.

The project is proposed to include:

  • 544 rental apartments
  • 50,000 square feet of amenity space
  • over 10,000 square feet of ground-floor retail
  • 628-space parking garage, screened with “custom cement breeze blocks” designed by Camber Studio

ODP is the architect. KAS is doing interior design.

Groundbreaking is planned in Q2 2024.

At least it’s interesting! Looking forward to seeing how this turns out – points for the added density

Looks dated, but it’s about time this lot adds density…

The code only requires an artistic treatment to cover the podium.

…and what it being proposed surely ain’t “artistic treatment.”

By the definition of the code, it is.

This design looks completely schizophrenic…like, hey lets copy a bunch of previous designs for other projects that haven’t gone anywhere and merge them together…great idea…disappointingly disjointed results

What a downgrade from the previous design

I disagree, it think it’s got a Wynwood meets Edgewater vibe and the ground floor is really cool

Wynwood up to no good

At least it’s not a box, but the facade symmetry, especially the balconies, as well as base, need a whole lot of changes.

So dense for being far from a metro stop, but I guess you could walk awhile to the school district or park west stops…?

Metromover Arsht station is at 15th & Biscayne, just a 2 block walk.

Could they not decide on a design & just combine two into one? This is quite the hodgepodge…

I agree. Looks a bit schizophrenic like they had two building designs and compromised by including parts of each. Oh well, bring on the density in whatever form!

Same old, a plain looking tower with a giant podium.

Huh

This building looks so much better than most of the recent ones we’ve seen plans for. It’s got ground level retail, some liner units, and the parts of the deck that aren’t covered with liner units looks pretty good. The city needs to change their policy. Until then the designers are stuck with parking podiums.

I agree. Nice looking building. More big trees in the streets would be a great game changer for people from Edgewater who like to walk Biscayne boulevard. Also, it would help to fight the heat. Developers should include that notion to their plans.

Enough palm trees already

Palm trees look nice and give the tropical/beach vibe but they suck from a shade perspective. The Aston Martin building brought in much bigger trees that looked DOA. Instead of getting new ones they ditched them and now it’s just palm trees, very disappointing. Give us some shade from the sun!

Good local governments have annual landscape inspections to ensure development complies with approved landscape plans.

IDK, many proposals recently have been pretty nice, except like… The Crosby and Domus Flats II.
