“Rockwell Group is thrilled to partner with Robert and Black Lion on this pioneering project,” said Shawn Sullivan, Partner, Rockwell Group. Rivani is an opportunity to bring a luxurious, tailored, and timeless experience to Miami’s office sector. We were inspired by the dichotomy of French and Japanese design influences: Sophisticated, layered, artful moments juxtaposed with meditative, distilled and crafted spaces. Throughout, we celebrate exquisite views, the geometry of the existing building, and the lushness of Miami.”
“Rivani is redefining Miami’s office design landscape by seamlessly blending opulent hospitality with a tranquil, wellness-centric ethos,” said Carlos Rodriguez from Escala Forma Studio. “Through a harmonious fusion of calming aesthetics and high-end amenities, our design transforms the workspace into a sanctuary of style, comfort, and productivity, elevating the overall work experience.”
Ideally located in the heart of Miami Beach at 1691 Michigan Avenue next to buzzy Sunset Harbor and Lincoln Road, the landmark property showcases 118,658-square feet of interior office space, 5,000 of which will serve as Black Lion’s new flagship Miami headquarters, 43,166-square feet of retail, and 318,000-square feet of parking. Current tenants include Apple, West Elm, William Sonoma, Morgan Stanley, and Coldwell Banker.
The building is one of the largest in the area and the transaction marks the largest office transaction in Miami Beach since 2016. Christian Lee and Sean Kelly from CBRE represented the seller while Jeremy Hakala, Clay Sidner and Brandon Shores with Newmark represented Black Lion in the transaction and will oversee leasing. Completion for the project is expected mid 2025.
