In yet another testament to Miami’s meteoric rise as a hub of luxury, innovation, and culture, One Thousand Group has unveiled its latest development, Tower 36. With the recent $53 million acquisition of a 1.6-acre site in East Edgewater, the project signals a bold step forward not just for the developers but for Miami itself. Tower 36, which is set to redefine the skyline, will be the Group’s third tower in East Edgewater and its fifth major contribution to Downtown Miami.
A Strategic Location for a Transformative Vision
Perched at the nexus of East Edgewater and Miami’s Design District, the newly acquired site spans 3601 Biscayne Boulevard, 345 NE 36th Street, and 409 NE 36th Street. This prime location connects some of Miami’s most vibrant neighborhoods: Midtown, Wynwood, Downtown, and Miami Beach. Its seamless connectivity positions the project as a gateway to the city’s cultural and economic epicenters.
Tower 36 will be far more than a high-rise; it will embody the ethos of One Thousand Group’s development philosophy. Designed by the internationally acclaimed KPF Architects, the project promises to deliver a mixed-use urban oasis. Branded residences, retail and commercial spaces, a private members’ club, and an array of culinary and wellness amenities will converge to create a lifestyle-focused destination. To top it all off, the signature rooftop helipad and heli-lounge, reminiscent of the Group’s iconic One Thousand Museum, will crown the tower.
A Visionary Team Shaping the Future
“This marks an exciting new chapter for Miami’s Edgewater neighborhood,” said Kevin Venger, co-founder of One Thousand Group. Having witnessed Edgewater’s evolution since 2005, Venger and his team are uniquely positioned to continue its transformation into a premier urban locale. The development’s proximity to the Design District’s culinary and retail scene, coupled with walkable green spaces, underscores its strategic appeal.
Michael Konig, also a co-founder, emphasized the project’s significance: “Tower 36 represents a pivotal step in Edgewater’s emergence as one of Miami’s most sought-after neighborhoods.” With unmatched visibility and connectivity, the project aims to set a new benchmark for mixed-use living in Miami.
The architectural vision, helmed by KPF’s Robert Whitlock and Lloyd Sigal, integrates sustainable design, cutting-edge technology, and urban walkability. By embracing a wellness-centered approach and incorporating transient living options, Tower 36 reflects both global trends and Miami’s local vibrancy.
A Legacy of Excellence
The One Thousand Group’s reputation precedes it. From the ultra-luxurious One Thousand Museum to the under-construction Villa Miami, the team has consistently delivered projects that challenge conventions and push boundaries. With over $8 billion in delivered value, nearly 20,000 residential units, and over 10 million square feet of developed space, the Group’s impact on Miami’s urban landscape is undeniable.
“Our focus is on creating unique and innovative buildings that not only exemplify design excellence but also embrace sustainability and cutting-edge technology,” noted Louis Birdman, another co-founder of One Thousand Group. Tower 36’s design underscores this commitment to innovation and quality.
A Bright Future for Miami
As Miami’s real estate market continues to thrive, projects like Tower 36 underscore the city’s global allure. By fusing architectural brilliance with urban connectivity, One Thousand Group is not just building towers—it’s shaping communities and redefining what it means to live and thrive in Miami.
