Photos: Topped Off 36-Story Modera Riverside In Downtown Miami

·37 Comments

Photos show the topped off 36-story Modera Riverside tower in Downtown Miami.

The building will include 428 apartments when it is complete.

Developers have already filed plans to build a second tower at the complex, which is known as Nexus Riverside. That building will also be 36 stories and will have 345 apartments.

I knew this location just needed a little scène a faire.

This is an amuse-bouche of what’s to come here.

Hope FPL can sell or consolidate their space for some towers can be built there.

At least a narrow 1-3 story riverfront retail/restaurant strip, lease they own. All benefits of ownership and rent covers the minor changes to the reassembled space and enhances the river walk and FPL reputation.

dude you talk like a communist – the river walk is a city project, FPL is a private company. FPL rep is strong here already, they don’t need your imaginary approval.

If it’s a city project, the city should eminent domain it.

What?
The property is owned by FPL, not the City of Miami.

IF a private property owner seeks some variance on his land, then, he must adhere to the Miami River Greenway guidlines.

IF a private property wants to enjoy his property without changing it, THEN the private property owner can do that too.

Wish the city bought it or found a way to convince FPL to build a riverwalk and promenade of shopping around the transformers or mask them with art.

They tried a farmer’s market along there years ago and it didn’t last long. Not enough foot traffic since the river walk there only connects to Riverfront community and city offices

Private ownership rights do not override the property rights of individuals all around them and the collective rights of the community, especially when they obstruct access and egress along a major urban corridor, both maritime and terrestrial.

Collective rights? Are you dense? We also need electricity, that’s a conductor station for all of downtown and Brickell. Work on reality not fantasy,… collectively

I know their employees. Great people. They could literally build the best waterfront shopping place in America overnight and still keep the ownership of the land as it grows in value.

Wishful thinking. Lived next door for 8 years, they’ve been constantly expanding/eating up more of that site.

Well if it gets too crowded, they can sell it and move under every block of I-95.

This is my favorite area in Miami. It gets more beautiful every time I go there, and I love walking around the river and seeing the mix of architecture.

If you know Miami on the ground level, you know why this is one of the most beautiful areas to be.

I remember voting in 2018 to approve redevelopment of the City offices. Now it’s apartments instead.

Massive upzoning is going to be the only way out of this. Too much of the high-density land east of I95 is controlled by a small pool of large entities and developers with a foreign more affluent market in mind. With the lack of competition, it is in their best interest to keep Little Havana and the other side of the river small and prevent alternative neighborhoods from growing and flourishing. Otherwise, there will be more pricing crunches for the future. While there may have been other options in the past, the inelastic demand has been ignored for too long. Best to do it now before there is a downturn – which then allows the same small pool of large entities and developers to pillage the newly upzoned areas in a down market.

You are correct, but it has to be a little more nuanced than a blanket upzone, utilizing historical buildings as new community culture centers like the Harriet Himmel in West Palm Beach.

Stop citing this ridiculous example in West Palm Beach that is more akin to Overtown – if that. We get it, you want to copy a smaller less fast paced city that has no major Latino history – which makes no sense at all considering the trajectory of Miami compared to West Palm.

That’s incorrect. You are focusing on race in your comparisons, whereas I’m considering architectural styles and the condition of the properties and historical value, similar to West Palm Beach. I value inclusivity, not exclusion, and preserving the quality of life for those living there and those who are interested in being in such an amazing spot.

you sounds like a self-righteous bore and your idea is old hat – stop being an obstructionist because you’re not brave enough to own real estate in the area you want to influence.

It seems like the commentator was focusing on the size and pace of the city, while adding that race was also a factor. The last mention was the trajectory of the city, which is true, WPB and Miami are not on the same level or trajectory. It is antithetical to try to copy a city that is 75 years behind Miami in terms of growth. This nebulous grandiose idea of “Community” is not as important as the need to create more housing for all incomes across the spectrum right now. The demand in Miami is INELASTIC, it is simply not the same as WPB in any way at all.

Workforce Housing is defined as under 120% of the Area Mean Income.
In Miami-Dade, that’s about $75,000.

$75k x 1.2 = $90,000 per year.
If you spend 1/3 of your income on housing, that’s $29,700 per year, or $2,475 per month.

Well it looks better than the renderings, assuming their not painting every other “E” a different color, which made it look even more cheap and nasty.

I wish the city removed the billboard here, especially if it’s caving in places like Park West.
