The arrival of the Faena District Miami River is set to redefine the heart of Miami, bringing a unique blend of artistic excellence, cultural enrichment, and wellness to the city’s vibrant riverfront. Expanding on the success of Faena’s Miami Beach district, this multi-phase project marks a bold new chapter for Miami’s development and deepens the brand’s legacy of blending architectural grandeur with visionary lifestyle experiences.
Anchored by Faena Residences Miami, the new district offers a glimpse into Faena's ambitious plans to weave art, wellness, and community seamlessly into urban life. Designed by the late, celebrated architect Rafael Viñoly, the two towers that will rise along the river are more than just residences; they are an homage to Viñoly’s legacy and a gift to Miami’s evolving skyline. Featuring 440 exclusive residences, these riverfront towers will also house a 45,000-square-foot cultural epicenter, providing an impressive venue for the arts and events. With this cultural centerpiece, Faena is ensuring that art and community connection are as integral to the space as luxury and exclusivity, making it a landmark that embraces residents and the city at large.

Alan Faena, the visionary behind the brand, has expressed that the district is about more than architecture or aesthetics. “Building on the legacy we established in Miami Beach, our vision for this project is to create a community rooted in our core values—blending artistic expression, cultural immersion, wellness, and innovative design,” he said. The new Faena District on the river reflects this ethos, aiming to create a life-enhancing environment where cultural vibrancy and wellness take center stage. Faena’s attention to these elements, along with his emphasis on “resident-centric” design, underscores the brand’s commitment to holistic well-being and happiness as foundational aspects of the luxury lifestyle.
Stretching across three blocks, the Faena District Miami River will be more than a residential development. It will host curated cultural spaces, wellness facilities, a marina, and extensive recreational areas. By including public art and accessible spaces, Faena invites the larger Miami community to participate, making the district a focal point for cultural engagement and creativity. Not only does this district promise to elevate the area, but it also represents a thoughtful integration with the Miami Beach Faena District, further enriching Miami’s cultural landscape and connecting the city’s cultural assets across neighborhoods.

In partnership with Fortune International Group and KAR Properties, Faena Residences Miami will not only transform 90 SW 3rd Street but will also contribute to the city’s architectural and cultural renaissance. The anticipation surrounding this project, with sales beginning in late 2024, speaks to its promise of redefining riverfront living in Miami and setting a new standard for luxury and community-focused urban development.
