MIAMI — Construction has officially topped off at 600 Miami Worldcenter, a 32-story residential tower rising at 600 NE 1st Avenue within the $6 billion Miami Worldcenter master-planned district. The project, designed by Revuelta Architecture International and developed by Merrimac Ventures and Aria Development Group, will feature 606 fully furnished residences with no rental restrictions, reflecting growing investor appetite for flexible, short-term-rental-friendly living options in Miami’s urban core.
The tower, now structurally complete, is being built by Beauchamp Construction and remains on track for delivery in 2026.
According to the developers, 600 Miami Worldcenter was fully sold out before construction began, signaling sustained demand for flexible ownership models in South Florida’s rapidly evolving housing market.
“This milestone is a testament to the market demand for flexible ownership options in the heart of Miami,” said Nitin Motwani, Co-Managing Partner of Merrimac Ventures. “600 Miami Worldcenter represents the right product, at the right price, in the right location – and topping off brings us one step closer to delivering a new way to live and invest in Downtown Miami.”
“We’re proud to celebrate the tower’s vertical completion as we expand our residential footprint in Downtown Miami,” added David Arditi, Managing Partner of Aria Development Group. “600 Miami Worldcenter has resonated with a new generation of buyers who value design, flexibility, and access to one of the most dynamic neighborhoods in the country.”
Each of the 606 residences — ranging from 407-square-foot studios to 830-square-foot two-bedroom units — will feature floor-to-ceiling glass, private balconies, Italian cabinetry, and premium appliances, all curated by the award-winning Design Agency of Toronto. Units were originally priced from the $400,000s.
The tower’s amenity program reflects the modern urban lifestyle Miami has become known for. Plans include a rooftop pool and lounge, Homage Fitness outdoor training space, resident co-working suites, and a porte-cochère entry with 24-hour lobby staff. Residents will also have access to dedicated bike storage, summer kitchens, and private lounges, enhancing the balance of work, wellness, and recreation.
600 Miami Worldcenter joins a collection of new residential and mixed-use projects transforming Downtown Miami into a global urban hub. Spanning 27 acres, Miami Worldcenter is the second-largest urban development in the U.S., second only to Hudson Yards in New York City.
The project’s location — adjacent to Brightline’s MiamiCentral station — provides residents direct high-speed connections across South Florida and Orlando, cementing its role as a regional transportation and lifestyle hub.
Developers Merrimac Ventures and Aria Development Group are both deeply embedded in the Miami Worldcenter landscape. Merrimac is also developing The Crosby, a 450-unit, no-rental-restriction condominium slated for completion later this year, and Flow House, a 40-story, 466-unit tower being developed in partnership with Adam Neumann’s Flow. Together, Merrimac’s projects will add more than 1,500 new residential units to the downtown district.
Meanwhile, Aria Development Group continues to expand its Miami portfolio with successful projects such as YOTEL Miami and 501 First, both of which were fully sold out and share the same flexible rental model.
The topping off of 600 Miami Worldcenter underscores Miami’s sustained growth as a top-tier destination for global investors, digital entrepreneurs, and remote professionals. With Florida’s population growth and rising international interest, developers are finding continued success in flexible-use residential models that accommodate both primary residents and short-term visitors.
Industry analysts point to Downtown Miami’s record absorption rates, the expansion of Brightline, and favorable tax conditions as core drivers of the area’s real estate surge. Miami Worldcenter’s live-work-play framework has positioned it at the heart of this new urban renaissance.
