Related Group and Alta Developers have officially delivered Casa Bella Residences by B&B Italia, a 56-story, 650-foot condominium tower at 1400 Biscayne Boulevard in Downtown Miami's Arts and Entertainment District, with first residents already moved in and more than 90% of its 319 homes under contract.

Who built Casa Bella Residences and what makes it significant?

Related Group and Alta Developers developed Casa Bella Residences as the debut residential real estate project for Italian luxury furniture maker B&B Italia, a milestone for a brand better known for outfitting high-end interiors worldwide. Architecture firm Arquitectonica designed the tower's exterior, while Milan-based designer Piero Lissoni of Lissoni New York handled the interiors.

  • Arquitectonica is the tower's architect of record, a firm with deep roots in Miami's skyline.
  • Piero Lissoni of Lissoni New York led all interior design, carrying B&B Italia's aesthetic into every residence.
  • The project represents B&B Italia's first-ever foray into residential real estate development globally.

What are the details of the building and its residences?

Casa Bella Residences stands 650 feet tall across 56 stories and contains 319 total residences, including 10 penthouses, in the Arts and Entertainment District along Biscayne Boulevard. More than 90% of the homes are under contract, and the building has already welcomed its first wave of residents.

  • Total residences: 319, including 10 penthouse units at the top of the tower.
  • Building height: 650 feet, placing it among Downtown Miami's taller residential structures.
  • Occupancy rate: more than 90% of homes under contract at the time of delivery.

What record did the penthouse sale set for the neighborhood?

A triplex penthouse at Casa Bella Residences sold under contract at $2,138 per square foot, setting a new pricing record for the Arts and Entertainment District neighborhood. That figure reflects the premium demand for ultra-luxury product in a corridor that has seen significant residential investment over the past decade but has historically lagged behind Brickell and Edgewater in per-square-foot pricing.

What does this tower mean for Downtown Miami's Arts and Entertainment District?

The delivery of Casa Bella Residences signals continued high-end residential momentum in the Arts and Entertainment District, a stretch of Biscayne Boulevard that developers and city planners have long targeted for densification and cultural activation. The project joins a growing inventory of luxury towers reshaping the district's skyline and residential character.
