Parc Lofts
Parc Lofts is the real thing in a city full of “loft-style” marketing: a genuine warehouse-to-residence conversion at 1749 NE Miami Court, where a mid-century industrial building was reborn as 72 true lofts with 16- to 22-foot ceilings, exposed ductwork, and concrete columns. Completed in 2005 by Urban One Development and designed with Miami Beach architect Ilija Mosscrop alongside designer Patrick Kennedy, it brought authentic industrial-chic living to the Arts & Entertainment District years before the neighborhood had a name for it. Its oversized, one-of-a-kind floor plans keep condos for sale and condos for rent in steady demand among buyers priced out of new-construction towers.

Industrial Bones, Residential Polish
The Parc Lofts conversion kept what developers usually demolish: soaring volumes, concrete structure, and an unapologetically urban plan. Then it layered in the comforts: a heated pool, fitness center, sundeck, zen garden, lounge and multi-use room, controlled access with concierge and doorman. So the building reads as industrial luxury rather than raw warehouse.
Why Loft Buyers Land Here
New towers can imitate the aesthetic, but they can’t imitate the proportions: genuine 16-plus-foot ceilings and 2,000-plus-square-foot layouts at price points well below new Edgewater construction. For buyers who want the Arts District address with tower amenities instead, Opera Tower and Ten Museum Park sit minutes away.
Life around Parc Lofts runs on culture first and dinner second. The Adrienne Arsht Center sits a short walk away, and its calendar sends residents to dinner most nights. Salumeria 104 in Midtown handles the reliable Italian weeknight ($$). Michael’s Genuine in the Design District is the special-occasion bistro ($$$). Mandolin’s courtyard, a MICHELIN Bib Gourmand pick, is the reservation worth planning around ($$$). Amara at Paraiso, Edgewater’s best-reviewed waterfront table, is minutes away ($$$). Mornings mean Margaret Pace Park: tennis courts, outdoor fitness gear, and a dog park on the bay. Groceries are easy, with Whole Foods in Midtown and a Publix nearby. Weekends mean Frost Science, PAMM, and the murals of Wynwood, all a short drive. Buyers cross-shopping the neighborhood also look at Quantum on the Bay and 26 Edgewater.
Parc Lofts Frequently Asked Questions
❯ Is this a true loft conversion or new construction?
A true conversion. The project adaptively reused a 47-year-old industrial building, once home to an electric company and the Miami school board’s warehouse, preserving its bones: open plans with no traditional room delineation, structural concrete columns, and raw mechanical elements overhead.
❯ How tall are the ceilings?
Sixteen to twenty-two feet in standard lofts, roughly double a conventional condo, with some two-story penthouse units reaching 20-foot heights and adding sprawling private terraces. Walls of glass and oversized windows keep the deep floor plates flooded with light.
❯ How large is the building?
Intimate: six stories with about 72 residences, a red-and-white contemporary facade, and a resident profile that skews toward creatives and professionals who want space: many units run 1,200 to over 2,700 square feet, far larger than typical new condos.
❯ What is the rental picture?
Condos for rent surface regularly, including furnished penthouse-level lofts that command premium rents for the district. As with any boutique association, investors should verify the current rental and approval rules before buying.
❯ Which neighborhood is it in?
Parc Lofts sits in the Arts & Entertainment District (also called the Media & Entertainment District), steps from the Adrienne Arsht Center for the Performing Arts and a short hop to Wynwood’s murals, the Design District’s boutiques, and downtown Miami. Arguably the best cultural triangulation in the city.
❯ Who built Parc Lofts?
Urban One Development, managed by Intrepid, developed the $5.5 million conversion with Terremark as construction manager. Designer Patrick Kennedy, known for South Beach’s Hotel Astor and Sagamore redevelopments, shaped the interiors with architect Ilija Mosscrop of Mosscrop Associates.
