🏙️ Kolter Group Plans Twin 20-Story Towers Near the Miami Design District

Driving the news: Kolter Group has filed plans for a striking two-tower residential development at the corner of Biscayne Boulevard and NE 39th Street, introducing a bold new chapter in the evolution of the Miami Design District and Edgewater.

Details:

• The site spans the entire block from 3801 to 3883 Biscayne Blvd.

• Two 20-story towers designed by Arquitectonica feature curved vertical fins and sculptural rooftops.

• A total of 164 residential units, plus two lodging units, are planned.

• Nearly 9,000 square feet of ground-floor retail and 374 parking spaces are included.

• Units range from over 700 sq ft to penthouses topping 7,000 sq ft.

• All residences feature three exposures, offering panoramic views and abundant natural light.

Why it matters: The project adds density and architectural flair to a key corridor linking two of Miami’s most desirable neighborhoods. With a design-forward approach and thoughtful integration of greenery and retail, the development reflects the continued upscale transformation of Biscayne Boulevard.

The big picture: As Edgewater and the Design District continue to grow, developments like this one signal increased interest in high-end urban living—where architecture, walkability, and lifestyle converge. Kolter’s proposal brings both visual impact and residential opportunity to a fast-changing area.

What’s next: The project is moving through the city’s review process. If approved, it will join a wave of new high-rise residential and mixed-use projects reshaping the skyline between Midtown and downtown.

The bottom line: Kolter’s twin towers mark a high-profile step in connecting two booming neighborhoods—with bold design, luxury living, and a prime address on Biscayne.
