Faena Residences, Miami River

 

In a city that celebrates bay and oceanfront locales, and the boating and beachfront lifestyle that comes with them, Faena Residences Miami River stands out by turning its attention toward an inland ribbon of water—the Miami River. This unique perspective reimagines Miami's cultural compass, placing homeowners and investors in the midst of Downtown Miami's urban, high-rise vibrancy. Faena Residences Miami is not just a new development, but a vertical masterwork. It's a convergence of art, wellness, and architecture, rising above the river's edge, and gazing out across the majestic towers of downtown’s Brickell neighborhood.

Anchored by FAENA's renowned brand vision and the late Rafael Viñoly's enduring design, it's a one-of-a-kind opportunity for those seeking exclusivity and luxury.

 

A Visionary Statement

This riverfront development represents an early window into Miami's next chapter. As a landmark community that echoes Faena's wildly popular Miami Beach district, the 14-acre Faena District Miami River promises both an immersive creative experience and refined residential living.

At the heart of this development are twin riverfront towers, each soaring approximately 68 stories, connected by a dramatic 45,000-square-foot Sky Bridge nearly 700 feet above the water. This unique architectural design, a final statement from the renowned Rafael Viñoly, is a sight to behold. Together, they house 440 ultra-luxury residences, ranging in size from 712 to 7,676 square feet, and spanning one- to four-bedroom layouts, alongside sky lofts, river lofts, and penthouses.

This is, in fact, one of the final architectural statements from Rafael Viñoly, whose sculptural approach blends fluidity and presence. Here, each angle, each alignment reflects both functionality and artistry—an elegant dance between structure and skyline.

 

Amenities

Perched nearly 700 feet above the Miami River, the Sky Bridge is a cultural ecosystem—housing three full levels of shared experiences, including:

• The Pistil anchors the amenity program with a dramatic, double-height lounge framed by twin sculptural staircases—designed as a space for connection and cultural exchange among the residents themselves: a community of creatives, visionaries, and tastemakers.
• Infinity-edge pool, sky garden, and cabanas
• 25-meter smart pool with underwater sound 
• Restaurant and bar with sweeping river views
• Library lounge, private dining rooms, screening room, game zone, golf simulator
• Sauna penthouse featuring cold plunge pools and red light therapies

Such a collection of amenities and the unparalleled perch they'll occupy serve as a centerpiece and congregational space that unites residents above the river's flow, offering tranquility, luxury, and social resonance in one breathtaking frame.

 

The Interiors

Stepping inside, the aesthetic turns inward with the refined touch of Bryan O'Sullivan Studio, offering interiors that balance warmth, refinement, and a quietly expressive European sensibility. Residences feature private or semi-private elevators, ceilings rising to 10–12 feet, and substantial 10-foot-deep glass-enclosed terraces that amplify the home's connection to the river and the sky.

The homes at Faena Residences Miami are a testament to luxury living. They are outfitted with designer finishes, custom kitchens, smart-home integration, and spa-caliber bathrooms. Each element is designed for spatial and tactile luxury, offering a living experience that is both opulent and comfortable.

 

The Location

Situated at 24 SW 4th Street, Faena will command attention at the spot where the Miami River meanders below the South Miami Avenue Bridge, mere steps from Brickell City Centre. This prime location ensures that you are always at the heart of the vibrant Miami community, with everything you need just steps away.

Set within the broader Faena District Miami River, the project is the crown jewel on 14 acres and over 300 feet of riverfront. From a private park, marina with river access, and immersive public art, along with its location and architecture, the project as a whole serves to accentuate the Miami River and its increasing role as a lifeline through the city. It's a showcase moment for the long-overlooked waterway, helping further transform the historically rich corridor and cementing Faena's status as Miami's next address of distinction.

 

Ownership Opportunities

Sales officially launched in May 2025, marking Faena Residences Miami River as one of Miami's most culturally significant pre-construction offerings. With billions invested in the district and its environs, this project is positioned as a truly transformative living experience. It's a premier investment for those who want to be at the center of Miami's transcendent cultural and civic lifestyle.

Delivery is estimated for 2029, with availability still open across a range of homes—one-bedroom starting in the low $1million range, and larger residences or sky lofts rising through the $6–7 million range, with customized penthouses priced upon request.
