Hyatt Hotels Corporation and Miami’s Gencom, under the HRM Owner, LLC, have submitted plans for Miami Riverbridge to the City of Miami’s Urban Development Review Board (UDRB). The proposed development, located at 298, 300, 330, and 400 Southeast 2nd Avenue, aims to transform the current site of the James L. Knight Center, the Miami Convention Center, the Miami Conference Center, and the Hyatt Regency Hotel into a cohesive mixed-use complex.

The project spans approximately 4 acres along the north bank of the Miami River in downtown Miami. It features three interconnected towers with a shared podium, encompassing 1,342 residential units, 264 apartment-hotel units, 615 hotel rooms, convention and meeting spaces, approximately 100,000 square feet of commercial space, and 1,101 parking spaces and amenities. Designed by Arquitectonica, the towers include an 87-story supertall structure reaching 1,044 feet, a 62-story tower rising to 734 feet, and a 52-story tower standing at 636 feet.

Miami Riverbridge is centered around a new public riverfront space, including a 50-foot setback along the Miami River to enhance the existing Riverwalk and improve connections with the Miami River Greenway. The design aims to support the Miami Comprehensive Neighborhood Plan’s Port of Miami River Sub-Element by promoting mixed-use development, activating the waterfront, and contributing to the city’s economic growth.

Due to its scale and complexity, the project will be developed in phases. No special approvals or waivers are being requested, as the project complies with Miami 21 zoning requirements. The developers anticipate the project will significantly enhance downtown Miami, transforming an underutilized property into a vibrant mixed-use complex and regional hub. The UDRB review for this proposal is scheduled for today.

  1. I hope they do a design review, as well. Looks like a 20 story parking podium on one side. Not the most attractive building. Very massive and little elegance. I appreciate the height and the high open air roof deck, but the overall design needs refinement.

    • Agreed. They should do something similar to the metal wave pattern they did on Denver’s convention center parking garage, that would look cool

  2. 1000 ft pile of third world Miami trash. grey stucco for a Hyatt Regency? the inwards sides of the complimentary towers look like greedy developer garbage. I get we have economic headwinds but this is value engineering gone horribly wrong. underwhelming but decent for Miami but Chicago and NYC wouldn’t touch this abomination.
