A Boutique Waterfront Tower on Biscayne Bay
Rising 53 stories and 636 feet directly on Biscayne Bay, LILLI is a boutique waterfront tower of just 117 residences developed by OKO Group. Designed by Adrian Smith + Gordon Gill Architecture — the firm behind UNA Residences in Brickell and Adrian Smith's Burj Khalifa — the building's fluid, curvilinear form and softly rounded corners frame uninterrupted views of the bay, Miami Beach, and the Downtown skyline. With direct access to the Edgewater Baywalk, LILLI organizes its amenity program around four wellness pillars: movement, recovery, nourishment, and connection.

With only 117 residences across 53 stories, LILLI is one of the lower-density new towers coming to Edgewater — and that scarcity is the point. In a neighborhood where much of the pipeline is built around large unit counts, a building this size offers a different daily experience: fewer neighbors, more privacy, and private elevator entry to each home. We have walked clients through the trade-offs between high-density and boutique product many times, and for buyers who want an intimate building on the water, LILLI's residence count is a meaningful differentiator that is fixed by the architecture and cannot be diluted later.
LILLI is designed by the firm behind UNA Residences in Brickell, whose principal Adrian Smith designed the Burj Khalifa. That pedigree shows up in the building's fluid, curvilinear form and its detailing — 12-foot ceilings, floor-to-ceiling glass, custom millwork, and Gaggenau kitchens. Design provenance is one of the more durable sources of value in Miami's luxury market, and a recognizable architectural signature tends to hold its appeal through market cycles. For buyers weighing several Edgewater options, the design team is one of the clearest points of separation.
OKO Group, led by Vladislav Doronin, has built a Miami portfolio that includes Missoni Baia and UNA Residences. During the pre-construction phase, you are buying confidence in a developer's ability to deliver what they promise, and OKO's track record of partnering with marquee architects and completing design-forward waterfront projects provides meaningful reassurance. For buyers who weigh delivery certainty alongside design and location, the developer's name carries real weight here.
LILLI organizes roughly 22,000 square feet of amenities around four wellness pillars — movement, recovery, nourishment, and connection — with a rooftop saltwater pool, infrared saunas, cold plunge pools, a spa, a movement studio, and a dedicated wellness director. This is a more focused, longevity-oriented amenity thesis than the broad resort decks common in larger towers. For buyers who actually intend to use these spaces daily, a curated wellness program can matter more than sheer square footage, and it reinforces LILLI's positioning as a residence designed around how people want to live.
LILLI is a project we have been watching closely since OKO Group revealed the design, and it stands out in the Edgewater pipeline for the right reasons. A 53-story tower with only 117 residences is a deliberate choice, and it gives the building an intimacy that most of the neighborhood's larger projects cannot offer. Pair that scarcity with Adrian Smith + Gordon Gill's design and OKO's development record, and you have a product with clear, defensible differentiation rather than a me-too waterfront tower.
The strongest arguments for LILLI are the design provenance, the boutique scale, and the direct bayfront site on the Baywalk. The wellness-first amenity program is also genuinely thought through rather than a checklist, and the interior specification — 12-foot ceilings, floor-to-ceiling glass, Gaggenau kitchens, private elevator entry — is consistent with the pricing. Edgewater itself continues to mature, with the Design District, Wynwood, and Downtown all within easy reach, which supports both lifestyle and long-term demand.
The honest counterpoints are the ones common to any pre-construction purchase. Completion is currently anticipated around 2030, which is a long horizon, and timelines on towers of this height can move. Edgewater, while improving quickly, does not yet carry the established prestige of Brickell or Miami Beach, and a half-acre site means residents trade expansive grounds for an intimate footprint. Buyers should weigh the staged deposit schedule and the delivery timeline against their own liquidity and use plans. For those who want a scarce, design-led bayfront residence and are comfortable with a pre-construction horizon, LILLI is a compelling position to hold.
LILLI Miami is a 53-story boutique waterfront condominium rising 636 feet directly on Biscayne Bay at 717 NE 27th Street in Edgewater. Developed by OKO Group, the international firm led by Vladislav Doronin, the tower contains just 117 residences - a deliberately low count that frames the project as an intimate, design-driven address rather than a high-density tower. Architecture and interior design are by Adrian Smith + Gordon Gill Architecture, the firm behind UNA Residences in Brickell and whose principal, Adrian Smith, designed the Burj Khalifa.
The building's defining feature is its form. A fluid, curvilinear silhouette with softly rounded corners and articulated balconies gives LILLI a sculptural presence on the Edgewater skyline and maximizes the floor-to-ceiling glass that captures views of Biscayne Bay, Miami Beach, and Downtown Miami. Residences range from one-bedroom layouts to penthouses approaching 7,000 square feet, with ceiling heights up to 12 feet, custom millwork, marble finishes, Gaggenau appliances, oversized private terraces, and private elevator entry to each home.
Wellness is the organizing idea of LILLI's roughly 22,000 square feet of amenities, structured around four pillars: movement, recovery, nourishment, and connection. The program includes a rooftop saltwater pool, infrared saunas, cold plunge pools, a spa and treatment room, a movement studio with circuit-based programming, body composition analysis, a waterfront garden, rooftop social and dining experiences, and a dedicated lifestyle and wellness director. A high-efficiency air filtration system and living greenery throughout reinforce the longevity-focused positioning.
The Edgewater location places residents directly on the Baywalk, with the Design District and Wynwood minutes away and Downtown, Brickell, and Miami Beach within a short drive. OKO Group acquired the half-acre bayfront site for $54 million and is replacing a small early-2000s building with the new tower. Sales launched in 2026, with completion currently anticipated around 2030.
For buyers, LILLI represents a focused proposition in a fast-growing waterfront corridor: a scarce, design-led product from a developer with a proven Miami portfolio, on one of the few remaining boutique bayfront parcels in Edgewater. Residences start from approximately $1.65 million.

Market Context: The Miami-to-Northeast and Miami-to-California migration has converted from pandemic-era spike to structural relocation. Miami’s millionaire population grew approximately 78% between 2013 and 2023. Geographic constraint is binding: ocean, bay, and Everglades pin supply. December 2025 medians: Miami Beach condo $620K, Brickell condo $580K. Luxury condominium price per sq ft: $1,200-$3,500+, extending to $2,000-$4,500+ on Fisher Island and $1,800-$4,000+ at South of Fifth.
Value submarkets: Brickell ($600-$1,500/SF), Edgewater ($700-$1,200/SF), Downtown Miami ($600-$2,000/SF). Trophy submarkets: Fisher Island, Sunny Isles Beach ($1,500-$3,500/SF, dense branded-residence inventory), South of Fifth. Branded benchmarks include Four Seasons Surf Club ($2,200-$3,500/SF), St. Regis Sunny Isles ($1,800-$2,800/SF), and Porsche Design Tower ($1,600-$2,400/SF). Miami now carries more hotel-branded residences than any other Western Hemisphere city.
Structural inputs compound: no state income tax (vs. 10.9% NY, 13.3% CA), no estate tax, 78% decade millionaire growth, and construction-cost inflation. Current pre-construction inventory was financed and broken ground before 20-50% tariffs landed on steel, aluminum, concrete, and lumber, effectively the last tranche of pre-tariff pricing. Florida SB 264 restricts acquisitions by nationals of certain countries within 10 miles of military installations and must be screened at contract stage for international buyers.
Miami’s millionaire population grew approximately 78% between 2013 and 2023 with no state income tax and hard geographic constraints (ocean, bay, Everglades) capping supply. Luxury condominium price per sq ft runs $1,200-$3,500+, extending to $2,000-$4,500+ on Fisher Island and $1,800-$4,000+ at South of Fifth. Miami now carries more hotel-branded residences than any other Western Hemisphere city.
December 2025: Miami Beach $620K, Brickell $580K. Luxury condominium stock runs $1,200-$3,500+ per sq ft, extending to $2,000-$4,500 on Fisher Island and $1,800-$4,000 at South of Fifth.
Zero state income tax (versus NY 10.9%, CA 13.3%), no estate tax, a 78% decade growth in the millionaire population (2013-2023), and geographic constraints that cap long-run supply. These are structural inputs, not cyclical.
Current pre-construction inventory was financed and broke ground before 20-50% tariffs landed on steel, aluminum, concrete, and lumber. Replacement-cost pricing on the next development cycle is expected to rise materially. Current allocations represent the last tranche of pre-tariff pricing.
Florida SB 264 restricts property acquisitions by nationals of seven countries (China, Russia, Iran, North Korea, Cuba, Venezuela, Syria) within 10 miles of military installations. The restriction must be screened at contract stage and may require entity-structure adjustments to comply.
HOA $0.80-$2.50 per sq ft per month, property tax ~2% of assessed value annually, HO-6 insurance $2,000-$5,000+ annually, flood insurance $500-$3,000+. A 2,000 sq ft condo runs $1,600-$5,000 per month in HOA alone.
Buildings 3+ stories must undergo structural inspections at year 30 (year 25 if coastal), then every 10 years. Associations must fully fund reserves; reserve waivers are no longer permitted. Older buildings carry special-assessment risk; inspection and reserve-study review is required at due-diligence.

Request Sponsor InventoryPre-construction diligence
Miami pre-construction can offer early access, better line selection and staged deposits, but buyers need to underwrite the contract as carefully as the view. The project, developer and association structure matter as much as the renderings.
Review each installment, escrow treatment, refund conditions, financing contingency, closing timeline and whether the capital commitment fits the buyer's broader liquidity plan.
Do not assume you can assign or flip before closing. Confirm assignment rights, sponsor consent, fees, blackouts, marketing limits and transfer taxes before signing.
Compare sponsor track record, construction financing, prior delivery quality, completion timing, warranty language, reserves and what happens if specifications change.
For St. Regis, Cipriani, Baccarat, Mandarin Oriental and similar projects, compare the service model, brand fees, rental rules, food/beverage rights and whether the brand supports resale value.
