ELLE Residences Miami marks the global residential debut of the iconic ELLE fashion and lifestyle brand. Located at 3618 NE 5th Avenue, at the strategic intersection of Edgewater, Midtown, and the Miami Design District, this 25-story boutique tower brings 80 years of French sartorial influence to the Miami skyline. Developed by Vertical Developments and Urban Network Capital Group (UNCG), the project features 180 fully finished and furnished residences. Designed by the prolific firm Behar Font & Partners, the tower is currently in pre-construction with a target completion in 2028.

The building’s design is a “Prêt-à-Vivre” (Ready-to-Live) concept, curated to reflect the sophisticated aesthetic of ELLE DECOR. Interiors by The One Atelier the same visionaries behind projects for Fendi Casa and Dolce & Gabbana blend mid-century modern lines with contemporary French chic. A key highlight for investors is the building’s flexible rental policy, allowing owners the option for short-term rentals (Airbnb) or participation in a fully managed professional rental program.

Project Overview and Developer Vision

The vision for ELLE Residences is “High Style, Effortless Living.” By securing a prime site near the Julia Tuttle Causeway, the developers have positioned the project as the “runway” to Miami’s design and cultural districts. The building is designed to function as both a high-end pied-à-terre and a high-performance investment asset.

The architecture is characterized by its “all-corner” feel in many units, with floor-to-ceiling glass and private balconies that frame views of Biscayne Bay and the city. The project differentiates itself through its French Riviera-inspired amenity program, which spans two full floors and emphasizes wellness, fashion, and social connectivity.
