“Named for the LILLI — which doesn't rise above the water, but grows from it.”
Standing 53 stories above Biscayne Bay, what makes LILLI most distinctive is precisely how it doesn’t position itself. This elegant tower doesn’t make a big show of itself the way skyscrapers with longer names and flashy marketing campaigns usually do. Its facade curves — champaign-toned fluted metal tracing the building's edges as if the structure were simply following the line of the bay.
The 636-foot silhouette reads slender from the water, deliberate from the street, and exactly right from the 30th floor, where the bay, Miami Beach, and the skyline all appear in the same frame.
OKO Group, the firm that bought this specific piece of Edgewater waterfront in 2016 for $54 million, held it for nearly a decade.
They built Missoni Baia immediately to the south in 2024 — a 57-story tower that confirmed their command of this bayfront — before revealing what they had planned for the remaining parcel north of it. LILLI is the answer: 117 luxury condos for sale in Edgewater Miami, organized two to three per floor, each with its own private elevator lobby, each named for a flower that grows at the water's edge rather than above it.
OKO Group was founded in 2015 by Vlad Doronin, who serves as Chairman and CEO. The firm's Miami track record is specific and verifiable rather than atmospheric: 830 Brickell — the city's premier Class A+ office tower in the financial district, fully delivered — and Una Residences, the 47-story bayfront tower in Brickell, completed with the same design firm, Adrian Smith + Gordon Gill Architecture.
Immediately south of LILLI's site sits Missoni Baia, the OKO-developed tower completed in 2024, which gives LILLI buyers an uncommon due diligence option: inspect the adjacent completed building before contracting for the one that hasn't been built yet.
Beyond Miami, OKO develops hotels and branded residences for Aman Group globally, including Aman New York in the historic Crown Building, Aman Beverly Hills within the One Beverly Hills master plan, Aman Maldives, and Janu Turks & Caicos.
That hospitality background is not incidental to LILLI's service program: 24/7 valet, 24/7 lobby ambassador, 24/7 doorman, a director of lifestyle and wellness, a house car, and daily package delivery to the unit are operational commitments, not aspirational amenity lists.
The design authority behind LILLI brings specific, measurable credentials. Adrian Smith + Gordon Gill Architecture — AS+GG — is the firm whose principal, Adrian Smith, designed the Burj Khalifa in Dubai, the tallest building on earth. AS+GG also designed Una Residences, the Brickell tower that set a new standard for bayfront residential architecture in Miami's financial core.
At LILLI, the same firm serves as both design architect and interior designer—an unusual arrangement that creates a consistency between the building's exterior logic and its interior experience that most towers, which use separate firms for each, cannot achieve.
Gordon Gill, FAIA, described the organizing principle at LILLI's reveal: the building's power derives from the slenderness of the site, which imposed clarity and elegance rather than compromising them. The 0.63-acre bayfront parcel gave AS+GG a constraint that, in their hands, became a differentiator.
The result is a tower that curves rather than angles — champagne-toned fluted metal accents articulating the facade; softly rounded corners eliminating the hard edges typical of glass towers; articulated balcony lines tracing the building's curvilinear logic from ground to crown.
Every balcony is a true outdoor room, not a narrow ledge: private terraces reach up to 640 square feet, with glass handrails that recede into the view rather than interrupting it.
The lobby was designed to draw toward the water. Double-height windows frame Biscayne Bay from multiple angles. Fluted columns carry the champagne-metal detail from exterior to interior.
Light tracks through the space as the day moves, which is not an accident — it is the design. At the ground level, the building opens directly to a Waterfront Garden and the Baywalk, placing residents on the bay itself rather than merely near it.
The floor plates at LILLI are organized around a commitment that carries a real cost: two to three residences per floor, each accessed via a private elevator directly into a private lobby. This is not a building with a common corridor.
At the 1-bedroom level — the point at which buyers can purchase a luxury condo for sale in Edgewater Miami at LILLI — private elevator access is a standard feature, not an upgrade available at higher price points.
Ceiling heights run from 10 to 12 feet across all residences. Flooring is a resident's choice of oak or porcelain. Kitchens are equipped with full Gaggenau appliance suites — the same specification found in Miami's most demanding luxury new construction — alongside custom-designed millwork, marble slab countertops and backsplash, a custom island with seating, and Dornbracht brushed nickel faucets.
Primary bathrooms feature a vanity with a honed marble slab top, porcelain tile floors, and feature walls; a glass-enclosed shower with rainhead and body-spray fixtures; and a freestanding soaking tub.
At the upper floors, the 3 Bedroom + Den plan (Levels 05–33) centers on a great room measuring 22'1" × 35'9" that opens onto a 64-foot east-facing bay terrace. The 4 Bedroom + Den plan (Levels 34–50) adds a fourth bedroom while preserving the same great room scale and terrace depth.
Both configurations are entered through a private foyer from the private elevator lobby, creating a sequence of arrival that more closely resembles a private residence than a condominium building.

LILLI's amenity program was built around a framework that precedes the design rather than following it. The developer calls these the four Living Pillars: Movement, Recovery, Nourishment, and Connection.
The practical result is that the building's amenity floors form a coherent daily program rather than a checklist of features assembled to fill marketing-speak.
Level 03 — Spa & Fitness
The spa and fitness floor occupies Level 03 in its entirety and is divided into separate men's and women's facilities, each complete. Each side contains an infrared sauna, a standard sauna, a hot tub, a cold plunge pool, a spa lounge, locker rooms with showers, and a spa bucket shower.
The shared center of the floor holds a movement studio, a rejuvenation lounge, and a treatment room for scheduled spa appointments.
The fitness center, positioned with panoramic bay views, is guided by circuit-based training programs tailored to individual goals. A body composition analyzer is part of the recovery toolkit — a specification that places LILLI's wellness offering closer to a performance clinic than a residential gym.
Level 52 — Rooftop
The rooftop at Level 52 is a full day-and-evening program rather than a pool deck with a view. The 40-foot saltwater pool is oriented to capture the eastern bay exposure.
Pool cabanas, a pool lounge, and a hot tub complete the eastern side. A bay sundeck occupies the northeast corner, designed for morning light.
On the western side, the Club Lounge and Private Dining Room host resident events; the Sunset Garden faces the western horizon: a summer kitchen and outdoor dining terrace support alfresco entertaining year-round.
Ground Level & Building Services
The ground level includes a Waterfront Garden directly on Biscayne Bay, a Bayside Lounge, and a Pet Spa. EV charging, dedicated bike storage with a bike room, and a mailroom complete the ground-floor program.
Building services are operated at a standard consistent with OKO's hotel background: 24/7 security, 24/7 valet, 24/7 lobby ambassador, 24/7 doorman, a director of lifestyle and wellness, concierge, house car, daily package delivery to the unit, and poolside towel service.
High-efficiency air filtration is integrated throughout the building, and living greenery selected for air quality and wellbeing is incorporated across the rooftop and common areas.
Edgewater holds a geographic position that no amount of development can manufacture elsewhere in Miami: it is the neighborhood immediately north of downtown, directly on Biscayne Bay, with the Design District to the northwest, Wynwood two blocks west, Midtown adjacent to the north, and Miami Beach visible across the water.
LILLI sits on one of the final undeveloped bayfront parcels in this stretch — Florida YIMBY confirmed in May 2026 that it is among the last major direct-water sites in the neighborhood without a tower already on it or in permitting.
Margaret Pace Park, Edgewater's bayfront park, is 0.4 miles north of LILLI. It is the kind of park that residents actually use rather than simply pass: waterfront access, tennis courts, a dog run, and a volleyball setup that has apparently had the same regular players for years.
The Baywalk extends south from the park along the water, providing residents with a pedestrian and cycling path to downtown without crossing a street.
To the south, Brickell City Centre — with EAST Miami hotel, Cipriani, Saks Fifth Avenue flagship, and Quinto La Huella — is approximately 3 miles. Wynwood Walls, the neighborhood's most photographed cultural destination, is under 2 miles west.
Miami International Airport is approximately 8 miles, typically 20–25 minutes via I-195, though morning rush hour adds time on that stretch.
For families: Design and Architecture Senior High School (DASH), one of Miami-Dade's most competitive magnet programs, is in Wynwood — under 2 miles from LILLI.
The private school corridor along Coral Way, including Ransom Everglades and Carrollton School, is a 12–15 minute drive via the Venetian Causeway or Brickell Avenue.
One honest observation: Edgewater's street-level restaurant and retail density remains lower than Brickell or South Beach. The neighborhood is under construction, and construction in the surrounding blocks is likely to continue through the late 2020s.
Residents who choose Edgewater are choosing position — bayfront, central, connected — over a fully formed neighborhood fabric. That fabric is being written now.
A Morning in Edgewater
Saturday in Edgewater begins early if you face the bay. By seven, the light off Biscayne Bay has already turned the water silver-gold. If you run the Baywalk, you'll pass a handful of other residents from the newer towers going south toward the skyline, most of them with headphones in, most of them knowing each other by face if not by name after a few weeks of overlapping schedules.
Margaret Pace Park fills by eight — dog owners first, then families, then the volleyball regulars who apparently predate every tower on the block and will outlast most of them.
Panther Coffee in Wynwood is a 10-minute bike ride west along NE 27th Street — a flat stretch of road shaded enough in the morning to make cycling in Miami feel less aspirational than it sometimes does.
By mid-morning, the back courtyard fills with a mix of Design District gallery workers, Wynwood studio artists, and architects who seem to know each other through four degrees of separation.
By noon, Stiltsville Fish Bar on NE 29th Street — per local residents, the neighborhood's sharpest fish house — is into its lunch rush, with stone crab when the season allows and a crowd that has clearly been coming long enough to have a usual order.
The afternoon belongs to the rooftop, where the water changes color from green to blue to purple as the sun moves. By the time the sunset hits the bay from Level 52, it becomes clear why OKO paid $54 million for this specific piece of ground.
LILLI enters the market at a moment when two facts about Edgewater's supply side have been clarified. First, per Florida YIMBY's May 2026 reporting, the parcel at 717 NE 27th Street is among the last major undeveloped bayfront sites remaining in the neighborhood.
The blocks to the north and south have been built (Missoni Baia, completed 2024, immediately adjacent) or are occupied without development approvals in progress. Second, OKO's adjacent completed building provides a rare pre-construction due diligence tool: buyers can inspect the developer's delivered product, construction quality, and finish specification at Missoni Baia before contracting at LILLI.
In the context of Edgewater's current pre-construction pipeline, LILLI is a distinct product rather than a variant of the same one. Anantara Miami Resort & Residences — a planned 50-story condo-hotel from One Thousand Group — is a hospitality hybrid, which means HOA fees are structured around hotel operations, shared amenities with hotel guests, and a resale profile distinct from that of a private residential building.
The 40-story Cove Residences, led by Douglas Elliman's Eklund-Gomes team, is a 134-unit building without a bayfront parcel. Neither combines OKO's bayfront land position, AS+GG's architectural authorship at LILLI's scale, and a building designed from the start around 2–3 residences per floor. These are different market positions at different price points — not equivalent alternatives at the same one.
Rental demand in Edgewater—driven by its proximity to the Health District, Wynwood’s creative economy, the Design District’s gallery and retail scene, and the financial hub in Brickell—is consistent rather than seasonal.
The average building price of approximately $2,000 per square foot, according to the Miami Association of Realtors (May 2026), aligns with upper-end Edgewater market prices prior to construction and reflects the site’s waterfront location.
As of May 2026, the completion date has not been officially confirmed. Sales began on May 12, 2026, and the project is in the early stages of pre-construction. Construction is expected to be completed in 2029.
The final rental policy—for both short-term and long-term leases—is set forth in the HOA documents and will be known prior to closing. Investment buyers are advised to confirm details with the sales department before signing the contract, as the specific structure may vary depending on the type of apartment.
The building’s location in the Edgewater neighborhood and its proximity to the Health District, Design District, and the Brickell business district ensure steady demand for rental housing for executives and professionals at this address, regardless of the specific policy structure.
Anantara Miami is a hybrid of a condominium and a hotel with shared hotel amenities. Cove Residences is a 134-unit building without a waterfront lot and featuring a different architectural profile. LILLI is the only project in Edgewater currently under construction that combines a Biscayne Bay waterfront lot, 2–3 units per floor, and architecture by AS+GG.
Three factors shape its investment profile: the scarcity of waterfront lots in Edgewater (according to Florida YIMBY, this is one of the last undeveloped lots with direct waterfront access), the opportunity to assess the developer’s quality at the neighboring completed Missoni Baia building before signing a contract, and stable rental demand from professionals in the Health District, Design District, and Brickell.
The combination of these three factors at a single address is rare for the Miami market during the construction phase.
