Miami developers MV Real Estate Holdings (MVREH) and Driftwood Capital, in conjunction with Merrimac Ventures, have announced the official groundbreaking of Riverside Wharf, a $350 million hotel and hospitality-driven entertainment complex that promises to usher in a new era for the Miami River District.<\/p>\n
With state-of-the-art amenities and modern design, the two-tower development will rise as a distinctive and transformative destination, adding an unparalleled experience to Miami\u2019s thriving nightlife scene. Moss Construction is the general contractor for Riverside Wharf, with completion slated for Fall 2028.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt is incredibly rewarding for all partners involved in creating this development along the Miami River within the city of Miami and to officially break ground and bring Riverside Wharf to life,\u201d said Alex Mantecon, managing partner of MVREH and co-founder of Breakwater Hospitality Group.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis massive hotel and entertainment complex will transform the Miami River District into one of the most sought-after destinations in South Florida. We are confident it will set the ultimate standard for what local residents and visitors alike should expect from waterfront experiences, food and beverage, and entertainment for years to come,\u201d Mantecon added.<\/p>\n
Designed by Jon Cardello of CUBE 3 Architects, with Gensler Architects completing the construction documents and interiors designed by ICRAVE, the nine-story, 200,000-plus-square-foot Riverside Wharf will rise as a defining development for Miami\u2019s Downtown core. It will serve as an all-encompassing destination for world-class entertainment, exceptional dining, and renowned hotel accommodations.<\/p>\n
The project will boast a 30,000-square-foot nightclub and Vegas-style rooftop pool day club, a high-energy 12,000-square-foot event hall, various dining options and 16,000 square feet of signature restaurants, as well as the rebirth and expansion of The Wharf Miami. The hotel component features a 167-key Dream Miami luxury hotel, delivering lush accommodations for all who travel to experience this one-of-a-kind entertainment landmark.<\/p>\n
\u201cRiverside Wharf\u2019s groundbreaking marks a pivotal turning point for the future of the Miami River District, once more solidifying Miami\u2019s standing as a global destination,\u201d said Miami Mayor Francis Suarez. \u201cIts positive economic impact and caliber of exciting new experiences will be second to none. I look forward to its impressive rise and long-standing contribution to the city.\u201d<\/p>\n
Dedicated to improving the neighborhood and giving back to the community, the developers of Riverside Wharf will construct a new public riverwalk along the development site, as well as a state-of-the-art sea-level-rise mitigation initiative that includes building a new seawall. The project also will pay homage to the neighborhood\u2019s historic fishing culture by providing a pop-up Garcia\u2019s Fish Market on the grounds, where locals can get the freshest catch daily.<\/p>\n
\u201cWith Miami continuing to exceed expectations and attract talent, wealth, and world-class hospitality, Riverside Wharf will serve as an all-encompassing experiential landmark for all who pass through the city,\u201d said Carlos Rodriguez Jr., COO of Driftwood Capital. \u201cWe are proud to contribute to this unique development and further the Miami River District\u2019s evolution through an outstanding assortment of culinary, hospitality, and operational expertise.\u201d<\/p>\n
