Seventeen Edge

About Seventeen Edge

Seventeen Edge is a ±7.35-acre (320,082 SF) infill development site located along NE 17th Street in the heart of Miami’s Edgewater submarket, positioned between the Midtown/Design District corridor and Downtown Miami, and within close proximity to Wynwood and Biscayne Bay. The site’s exceptional size, urban-core location, and surrounding high-rise context make it one of the few remaining opportunities in Edgewater capable of supporting a true institutional-scale vertical development program.

The property is designated Urban Core under Miami 21 (T6 context) and benefits from zoning provisions that support high-density residential and mixed-use development, including a 500 dwelling units-per-acre overlay, which materially increases allowable residential density relative to standard base zoning. These entitlements alone position the site among the most development-efficient parcels in the Edgewater corridor and provide meaningful flexibility in tower height, massing, and unit yield.

In addition to by-right zoning, the site is expected to benefit from multiple statutory and planning mechanisms that further enhance development potential, including the Live Local Act and potential Rapid Transit Zone (RTZ) applicability, both of which allow substantially greater density, reduced development restrictions, and enhanced design flexibility. Under Live Local, residential development may be permitted at densities conceptually supporting up to approximately 1,000 dwelling units per acre, subject to program compliance. RTZ regulations may allow elimination of traditional setback requirements, effectively uncapped FAR, and height flexibility, while also permitting up to 500 units per gross acre, creating multiple pathways to maximize development yield.

A preliminary development concept has already been prepared for Seventeen Edge, illustrating the feasibility of high-rise construction supported by structured parking and podium-level amenities, and reducing early-stage planning risk for prospective buyers. Strong multifamily fundamentals, limited remaining infill land, and proven absorption of new luxury product in Edgewater and Midtown further support the long-term viability of large-scale development at this location.
