1800 Biscayne Plaza

1800 Biscayne Plaza is a 22-story condominium at 275 NE 18th Street in Miami's Edgewater district, completed in 2005 by Biscayne & 18 Plaza Corp in partnership with the Melo Group, with architecture by FormGroup. The building holds 195 residences across studio, one-, two-, and three-bedroom layouts plus penthouses, ranging from roughly 582 to 2,300 interior square feet. 1800 Biscayne Plaza opened during the first wave of Edgewater high-rise development that followed the redevelopment of the Performing Arts Center District in the early 2000s, and the building has remained one of the more competitively priced full-amenity addresses in the corridor between Downtown Miami and the Design District. Edgewater runs along Biscayne Bay between the Venetian Causeway to the south and the Julia Tuttle Causeway to the north, with Biscayne Boulevard forming the western edge and a string of bayfront parks lining the eastern waterfront. The 275 NE 18th Street site sits one block west of Margaret Pace Park, the 8-acre bayfront green with tennis courts, sand volleyball, and basketball courts. Walkable destinations include the Adrienne Arsht Center for the Performing Arts and the Bayfront Boulevard arts cluster, with the Wynwood Walls roughly half a mile northwest, the Design District a mile and a half north on Biscayne, and Brickell ten minutes south across the MacArthur Causeway interchange. The Omni Loop Metromover station puts Downtown Miami within a six-minute ride. Amenities at 1800 Biscayne Plaza were sized to the 195-unit count and include a heated swimming pool, a hot tub, a fitness center, a party room and clubroom, business and conference space, covered parking, and 24-hour security at the entrance. Residences at 1800 Biscayne Plaza feature open layouts, floor-to-ceiling windows, private balconies, and city or bay outlooks depending on placement within the tower. The combination of the Edgewater walkability, the Margaret Pace Park adjacency, and the FormGroup-designed amenity floor has kept 1800 Biscayne Plaza in active rotation for buyers shopping the corridor between Downtown Miami and the Design District.
