Aria on the Bay, Residential skyscraper in Arts & Entertainment District, Miami, United States
Aria on the Bay is a 52-story condominium tower at 1770 North Bayshore Drive, in Miami's Arts & Entertainment District/Edgewater, overlooking Margaret Pace Park and Biscayne Bay. It holds over 648 units of 813 to 2365 sq ft plus commercial space. Arquitectonica designed the architecture, interiors and landscape for developer Melo Group.
Aria on the Bay was approved at 535 feet (163 m) in 2015, after the FAA issued an initial notice of presumed hazard and recommended a height of 460 feet. The developer is Melo Group; Arquitectonica handled architecture, interior design and landscape.
The name refers to an aria, the solo vocal piece in opera, and the tower rises in the Arts & Entertainment District, a Miami neighborhood of galleries, theaters and concert venues. Developer Melo Group and Arquitectonica handled architecture, interiors and landscape together, so the lobby, residences and bayfront grounds share one design scheme.
Aria on the Bay stands at 1770 North Bayshore Drive, facing Margaret Pace Park and Biscayne Bay; the pools, fitness center, spa and entertainment rooms serve residents of the 648 condominium units, not the general public. The tower holds commercial space at its base. Visitors see the 52-story exterior from the park and the bayfront walk rather than the private amenity floors.
The FAA initially issued a notice of presumed hazard for the tower and recommended a height of 460 feet; the project was approved at 535 feet in 2015. The building rises 52 stories at 1770 North Bayshore Drive, with units from 813 to 2365 sq ft.
