Riverside Wharf New Construction

Exciting news for Miami’s riverfront: The highly anticipated Riverside Wharf development has taken a major step forward. The developers have officially selected Moss Construction as the General Contractor and have set a groundbreaking date for June 2025. With this milestone, the project is on track for completion in 2027.

Originally the site of the former Wharf Miami, which closed in August 2023, the Riverside Wharf project has grown into a $300 million vision that aims to redefine luxury hospitality and entertainment along the Miami River. Since the closure of the previous venue, permitting efforts have been actively underway to bring this ambitious project to life.

The Riverside Wharf will feature a 167-room Dream hotel, offering high-end accommodations with stunning waterfront views. Alongside the hotel, the development will include a multi-level entertainment complex designed to elevate Miami’s vibrant nightlife and dining scene.

Among the planned amenities are luxury Asian and Italian Coastal restaurants, promising world-class dining experiences. The entertainment hub will also boast a day club and a night club, catering to both daytime relaxation and high-energy nightlife.

With construction set to begin in a few months, Riverside Wharf is poised to become one of Miami’s premier entertainment and hospitality destinations. As the city continues to attract high-profile developments, this project will undoubtedly play a key role in shaping the future of Miami’s riverfront scene.

The Wharf, a Miami River outdoor entertainment destination that influenced the direction of regional hospitality, is officially closing. Breakwater Hospitality’s waterfront gathering place, which debuted in 2017, is making way for the Riverside Wharf project, which is anticipated to break ground before the year’s end.

A new iteration of The Wharf is one of the development’s goals. However, the 30,000 square foot original Wharf Miami, which featured seven bars, five culinary concepts, and 185 feet of dock space, will no longer exist

The 10-story Riverside Wharf project will also have a new wharf, a 30,000 square foot nightclub and rooftop dayclub, 16,000 square feet of eateries, a 12,000 square foot event space, and a marina in addition to the opulent Dream Hotel. The new home’s architecture was created by Cube3 architects’ Jon Cardello, with help from iCrave for the interior design and Savino-Miller Design Studio for the exterior landscaping.

Along with erecting a new seawall to prevent sea level rise, the developers are also constructing a new public riverwalk on the property. Additionally, there will be a Garcia’s Fish Market where people may purchase fresh fish. According to Mantecon, the new Wharf will have a similar design to the first one but be a permanent structure rather than a pop-up. There will be new eating concepts, with chefs working in dedicated kitchens rather than food trailers. However, don’t anticipate an elegant, red carpet setting.

The Wharf Miami will officially be closing on September 17th, and of course, there must be a party or two to say goodbye. The venue has a history of hosting theme parties, and according to Guerra, they intend to celebrate all the memories shared by bringing out all the old favorite props.
