Edgewater Real Estate

A long, narrow strip of Biscayne Bay waterfront that's become Miami's fastest-changing skyline — bayfront towers minutes from Downtown and the Design District.

About Edgewater

Edgewater is a long, narrow neighborhood bordering Biscayne Bay in Miami, developed in the early 20th century as small subdivisions of single-family homes and apartment buildings. Biscayne Boulevard, built through the neighborhood in the 1920s and rebuilt after the 1926 hurricane, gave it its main artery and connected it toward Miami Shores.

The skyline changed in waves — the Omni tower arrived in 1973, but the real transformation has come since 2000, with dozens of new towers built along the bay, including Paramount Bay, Icon Bay, and the buildings lining Margaret Pace Park, itself built out from a 1920s waterfront esplanade. That density of new construction, all directly on the water, is what defines Edgewater today.

The neighborhood's position — bayfront, but immediately adjacent to Downtown Miami and the Design District's galleries and restaurants — is what draws buyers who want new-construction waterfront without leaving the urban core.

Why buyers choose Edgewater

01

New construction on the bay

Dozens of towers have gone up directly on Biscayne Bay since 2000, giving buyers a concentration of new-build waterfront rare this close to Downtown.

02

Walkable to Downtown and the Design District

Edgewater's position on Biscayne Boulevard puts both within minutes, without the density of living inside either one.

03

A park at the center of the waterfront

Margaret Pace Park anchors the bayfront and gives the neighborhood a green, public counterpoint to the towers around it.
