Villa Miami Condo Tower, 710 NE 29th Street, Edgewater, Miami

Villa Miami has reached full height. The 56-story Edgewater condo tower topped out in late October 2026 at roughly 650 feet above Biscayne Bay, and Moss Construction’s crews are now chasing glass up the lower and middle floors. It’s the first residential building branded by Major Food Group, the restaurant operator behind Carbone and ZZ’s Club, and it’s being developed by Terra and One Thousand Group, two Miami firms working together for the first time.

The headline number isn’t the height. It’s the density. A 56-story tower usually carries a few hundred units. This one carries 70.

Project Scope

The site is 710 NE 29th Street in East Edgewater, on the bay between Downtown and the Design District. ODP Architects designed a reinforced-concrete tower wrapped in a copper-colored exoskeleton, with interiors by Vicky Charles of Charles & Co. Homes come as half-floor and full-floor residences, and the project’s September 2025 fact sheet lists 55 floors, 49 of them residential. A three-level penthouse occupies levels 53 to 55 with a private pool, and the developers recently put a $55 million price on the top unit.

Amenities run about 20,000 square feet. The Copper Club, Major Food Group’s resident-only social club, fills levels 3 through 5 with private dining rooms, lounges, a screening room, a salon and wellness space. A two-level bayfront restaurant goes at the base. Plans also show a rooftop helipad and a private dock, though the fact sheet says those still need permits that haven’t been obtained.

Seawall work started in September 2024, ahead of a December 2024 groundbreaking. The developers lined up a $285 million construction loan in January 2025, and the developer of record is 710 Edge Property, LLC. Florida YIMBY puts completion in late 2027.

Why It Matters

Edgewater has become Miami’s proving ground for ultra-luxury condo product, and Villa Miami pushes the formula to an extreme: very few doors, very large floor plates and a hospitality brand doing the selling. For the builder, that’s a different job than a typical high-rise. Fewer units means less repetition, and the finish standard on full-floor homes leaves little room for punch-list slippage.

It’s also a test of brand-led residential. Hotel flags have sold condos in Miami for years. A restaurant group hasn’t. If Villa Miami closes out on schedule and holds its pricing, expect more food-and-beverage names on South Florida towers. Moss now has the tougher half of the job ahead: enclosure, MEP fit-out and the amenity floors that justify the price.
