SF QOZ Fund I, LLC has unveiled renderings for a mixed-use tower planned at 1502 NE 1st Avenue in Miami’s Arts & Entertainment District. Designed by Kobi Karp Architecture and Interior Design, with a facade created in collaboration with London-based Jason Bruges Studio, the development will contain 576 residential units.
According to the developer, 40 percent of the apartments will be set aside for workforce housing under the Live Local Act. The project is also planned to include a 10,000-square-foot coworking space on the second floor and more than 6,000 square feet of retail and commercial space at street level, including approximately 4,000 square feet of storefronts.

The site sits directly across from the School Board Metromover Station and is positioned near the Adrienne Arsht Center for the Performing Arts, Miami Worldcenter, Kaseya Center, Biscayne Bay, the Perez Art Museum Miami, and the Phillip and Patricia Frost Museum of Science. The tower is intended to provide car-free access to Brickell, Downtown Miami, and the Health District.

“The Arts & Entertainment District is evolving into one of Miami’s most important urban corridors,” said David S. Cohen, Co-Founder of SF QOZ Fund I. “With the Adrienne Arsht Center for the Performing Arts next door and the iconic MacArthur Causeway framing the entrance to downtown, this project sits at a symbolic crossroads for the city. Our goal is to contribute housing that supports the workforce and market demand while adding architecture that reflects the cultural energy already characterizing this district.”

The development qualifies for transit-oriented development and is located within a federally designated Opportunity Zone. According to the developer, the six parcels were assembled in May 2025, with construction expected to begin later this year.
