Miami’s Urban Development Review Board has approved Tower 91, a 20-story mixed-use development slated for 91 Northeast 36th Street near the Design District. Elkus Manfredi Architects designed the tower, with CUBE 3 serving as the architect of record. Developed by Design District Associates and Prinz Corner LLC, both affiliated entities of DACRA and property owners at 91 – 93 Northeast 36th Street, this structure will rise nearly 270 feet tall and offer a total of 321,450 gross square feet. The development includes 107 multi-family residential units, 21,812 square feet of ground-floor commercial space, and convenient onsite parking for 227 vehicles. Savino & Miller Design Studio is the landscape architect, Kimley-Horn handles civil engineering, Spinnaker is the LEED Consultant, and Akerman, LLP is the land-use attorney.
The 0.71-acre site is located south of Florida State Road 112, with Northeast 36th Street (US Highway 27) to the south, bordered by Northeast 1st Avenue and Northeast Miami Place to the east and west, respectively. Midtown Miami is across the street. According to the letter of intent, the developer’s vision for Tower 91 is to serve as the southern gateway to the Design District, offering a captivating glimpse of the enchanting blend of art, fashion, architecture, and gastronomy that defines the district’s creative essence and global allure.

Renowned Cuban-American artist and sculptor Jorge Pardo will be at the helm of designing the garage screen. With a unique artistic approach, Pardo incorporates a vast array of imagery from family and institutional archives and formative artworks from his growth as an artist. Skillfully layering up to twenty distinct images “gesturally,” Pardo creates a mesmerizing and vividly colored near-abstraction. His innovative design process beautifully transforms personal and cultural memories into a visually stunning façade that promises to be a captivating addition to the project.

The building’s residential elevations are designed with silver-toned aluminum frames and vision and spandrel glass panels, complemented by glass guardrails along the undulated balconies, creating a sleek and modern aesthetic.
