Eighty Seven Park Miami Beach Floor Plans | Renzo Piano Residences Complete Guide
Eighty Seven Park Miami Beach — Floor Plans
At 8701 Collins Avenue in Miami Beach's North Beach district, Eighty Seven Park is the first residential project in the United States designed by Renzo Piano — the Pritzker Prize-winning Italian architect responsible for the Centre Georges Pompidou in Paris, the London Shard, the New York Times Building, the Whitney Museum of American Art, and the Kansai International Airport in Osaka. Developed by Terra Group and Bizzi & Partners Development with interior design by RDAI Paris — the Parisian firm of the late Renzo Dumas whose creative direction under Denis Montel produced one of the most precise interior visions of any building in this MPE floor plan series — and landscape by West 8, Eighty Seven Park completed in Q4 2019 and delivers just 67 residences in one- through five-bedroom configurations across 18 stories.
The building sits between two parks: the 35-acre North Shore Open Space Park to the south and a private 2-acre residents-only garden to the north designed by West 8 — making every floor plan at Eighty Seven Park a residence flanked simultaneously by the Atlantic Ocean to the east, public parkland to the south, and a private botanical garden to the north. No other building in Miami Beach — and arguably in all of South Florida — has this three-sided natural context.
Renzo Piano's summary of his design philosophy for the building is precise and worth quoting: "The language we wanted to use for Eighty Seven Park is the language of lightness, a sense of a lack of gravity." The building is elevated on white structural pillars at ground level — freeing the ground plane entirely as a visual extension of the park — and the oval floor plate wraps every residence in terraces that consume 50 to 70 percent of the interior square footage as outdoor space. Current resale listings range from approximately $3.5 million to $8 million for standard residences, with the mega penthouse separately priced.

The Oblong Floor Plate — Why Renzo Piano's Building Shape Defines Every Floor Plan
Piano's architectural decision for Eighty Seven Park — to use an oval, oblong floor plate rather than the rectangular slab typical of nearly every other Miami Beach high-rise — has direct and specific consequences for every floor plan in the building:
Every residence curves. The oval form means that the exterior wall of each floor plan follows a gentle curve rather than running in a straight line. The floor plans described in all official documentation as "expansive oblong" are shaped by this curve — living areas, bedroom suites, and terraces all follow the building's rounded perimeter. The practical result is a spatial experience with no hard corners and no interior zones that feel like geometric afterthoughts.
The terraces are proportionally extraordinary. On an oblong floor plate, the terrace wraps around the curve of the building rather than projecting in a simple rectangle off one face. Piano and RDAI calibrated these terraces to consume 50 to 70 percent of the interior square footage — and in some upper-floor units, up to 75 percent. A three-bedroom residence at 3,100 square feet may have a terrace of 1,900 to 2,500 square feet. A five-bedroom at 7,572 square feet may have a terrace of 4,558 square feet. These are not balconies in any conventional sense. They are outdoor living rooms that rival the interior rooms in scale.
Floor-to-ceiling glass with custom sunken frames. Piano's window specification — custom-made floor-to-ceiling glass with sunken frames — eliminates the conventional window frame entirely from the visual field. The glass appears to float within the opening rather than being contained by a frame, and the sliding panels disappear when open — a technical decision the RDAI documentation explicitly describes as the strategy to "erase the harsh distinction between inside and outside." From within any Eighty Seven Park floor plan, the transition from interior to terrace is nearly imperceptible.
The tower is oriented east-west. Unlike the north-south slab orientation of most Collins Avenue towers — which gives strong ocean views to units on one face and city views to units on the other — Piano rotated the building's long axis east-west, so that the oval's longest dimension faces the ocean. The consequence: every residence in the building has a direct ocean view. There is no city-facing only unit. There is no interior unit. The east-west orientation, confirmed in the Renzo Piano Building Workshop documentation, makes Eighty Seven Park one of the very few buildings of its height in Miami Beach where the architectural concept guarantees an ocean view from every floor plan.
Type A — 3 Bedroom, Floors 3 to 12
The Type A is the building's primary recurring floor plan — a three-bedroom configuration that stacks from floors 3 through 12, with confirmed listing across these floors in the named floor plan documentation. At approximately 3,100 to 3,600 square feet of interior space with terraces ranging from approximately 1,900 to 2,500 square feet, the Type A is the floor plan through which most buyers experience the Eighty Seven Park proposition: an oblong curved three-bedroom floor plan where the terrace is roughly 60 percent of the interior square footage and every principal room faces the Atlantic Ocean through floor-to-ceiling glass that disappears when opened.
Type A residences include:
- Private elevator with direct entry into each residence
- 10-foot ceilings with floor-to-ceiling glass throughout all principal rooms
- Custom-designed kitchen by RDAI featuring natural oak cabinetry, natural stone countertops and backsplashes, and a Wolf and Sub-Zero appliance suite
- Spa bathrooms with Zucchetti fixtures — custom washbasins designed exclusively for this project and manufactured by Zucchetti, the Italian fixture house
- Custom millwork throughout all rooms
- In-unit Electrolux washer and dryer
- Closets that are decorator-ready — the only element in each residence delivered without a defined finish, allowing buyers to configure to their own specification
- Wraparound terrace with ocean, park, and sky views simultaneously
Type EF — 3 Bedroom, Floors 14 to 17
The Type EF floor plan occupies the upper portion of the building's standard collection — floors 14 through 17 — in a three-bedroom configuration that captures the building's elevated view corridor. At this height above the 35-acre North Shore Open Space Park, the ocean, Intracoastal Waterway, the Miami Beach skyline extending south, and the open water extending north toward Bal Harbour are simultaneously available from the wraparound terrace. The expanded vertical separation from the tree canopy of the adjacent park — which is low enough to read as a botanical foreground element on lower floors and as an aerial view from upper floors — changes the experiential character of the Type EF meaningfully from the lower Type A floors.
Type AC2 — 4 Bedroom, Floors 15 to 17
The Type AC2 is the building's four-bedroom upper-floor configuration — available on floors 15 through 17. At approximately 4,200 to 4,600 square feet of interior space, the Type AC2 delivers the building's most generous standard bedroom count at the most elevated positions below the penthouse level. The wraparound terrace at this square footage and these floor levels approaches 2,500 to 3,000 square feet — an outdoor living environment that at the 15th to 17th floor of an 18-story North Beach oceanfront building occupies a view position that is, by altitude and three-sided natural context, genuinely without peer in this section of Miami Beach.
Type BD2 — 5 Bedroom, Floors 12 to 17
The Type BD2 is the building's largest standard floor plan configuration — five bedrooms across floors 12 through 17, with interior space ranging from approximately 5,500 to 7,572 square feet and terraces from 2,500 to 4,558 square feet. At the upper end of the Type BD2 range — 7,572 interior square feet with 4,558 square feet of terrace — the combined indoor-outdoor living environment approaches 12,000 square feet total, making the upper-floor Type BD2 one of the most extraordinary non-penthouse floor plans in any completed building in the Miami Beach market.
Full-floor configurations within this tier — noted specifically in multiple sources as available within the building — offer 360-degree views of the ocean, park, bay, and city simultaneously from within a single residence, a view program that is architecturally possible only because of Piano's east-west oblong orientation.
The Two Duplex Penthouses
Two two-story duplex penthouses occupy the building's upper levels, each delivering:
- Up to 7,572 square feet of interior space across two levels
- Private rooftop terrace with summer kitchen and private pool
- Up to 4,558 square feet of terrace across both levels and the rooftop
- Five-bedroom configurations
- RDAI interior design at full duplex penthouse scale
- Private internal staircase and elevator connecting both levels within the residence
- Complete 360-degree panoramic views of the Atlantic Ocean, North Shore Open Space Park, Biscayne Bay, and the Miami and Bal Harbour coastlines
The duplex penthouses are the most frequently referenced floor plans among buyers specifically evaluating the upper collection at Eighty Seven Park — the combination of Piano's rooftop at this particular location, flanked by 35 acres of public park on one side and a private botanical garden on the other, with the Atlantic Ocean directly to the east, produces a rooftop terrace experience that is contextually unique in the Miami Beach market.
The Mega Penthouse — $68 Million and the Largest Terrace in South Florida
Above the two duplex penthouses, Eighty Seven Park's crown residence — the Mega Penthouse — is the building's most extraordinary floor plan by any measure, and one of the most significant single residential floor plans in the entire MPE floor plan series:
- 12,410 square feet of interior space across the penthouse level
- 18,247 square feet of rooftop terrace — confirmed as the largest residential outdoor terrace in South Florida
- 6 bedrooms, 8 bathrooms, 3 powder rooms
- One service suite within the residence
- Private gym and home theater
- Two 45-foot-long infinity pools — one positioned for sunrise, one for sunset
- Two summer kitchens
- Outdoor theater
- Golf putting green
- Personal Turkish hammam (hammam spa within the private rooftop)
- Vertical gardens and lush tropical landscaping across the rooftop terrace
- RDAI Paris interiors at the full crown scale
- Priced at $68 million
The rooftop terrace at 18,247 square feet is nearly 1.5 times the size of the interior space — an inversion of the conventional relationship between inside and outside that is architecturally possible only because Piano designed the building with the explicit intention of making the outdoor space the primary living environment and the interior the secondary one. The two 45-foot infinity pools are positioned not merely for swimming but as architectural elements of the rooftop plan — the sunrise pool and the sunset pool are distinct in their view orientation, reflecting Piano's consistent attention to the experiential difference between morning light from the east and evening light from the west.
The RDAI Interior Language — Materials From the Site Itself
RDAI Paris — the atelier founded by Renzo Dumas and continued under artistic director Denis Montel — approached the Eighty Seven Park interior with a philosophy that is rare among luxury residential interior designers: before designing anything, Montel documented the physical materials present on the site itself. Shells, pebbles, leaves, sea grass, and the specific color tones of the North Beach sand and Atlantic water were collected and catalogued as the palette from which every interior material decision would be derived.
The result is an interior that reads as native to its location — not an imported Italian or French aesthetic applied to a Miami Beach building, but a material palette that is an extension of the natural environment directly outside every window. The specific material vocabulary confirmed across all RDAI documentation for Eighty Seven Park includes:
- Natural oak wood grain in kitchen cabinetry and select millwork
- Natural color variations in European stone throughout kitchen and bathroom surfaces
- Translucent floor-to-ceiling glass as a primary interior material rather than merely a window type
- Soothing colors of sea and sky as the palette governing all soft material selections
- Golden hues of natural sunlight as the primary lighting condition RDAI designed the interior to work with rather than against
- Custom Zucchetti washbasins designed exclusively for this project — not standard Zucchetti product but a bespoke commission that makes the bathroom fixtures at Eighty Seven Park one-of-a-kind objects that cannot be purchased elsewhere
The West 8 Private Park — The 2-Acre Residents-Only Garden
West 8 — the Rotterdam-based landscape architecture firm responsible for some of the most acclaimed public park designs in the world, including Toronto's Central Waterfront and New York's Governors Island — designed the 2-acre residents-only private park immediately adjacent to the building's northern face.
The private park is not an amenity deck or a landscaped podium. It is a botanical garden — a designed natural landscape of tropical plantings, terraces, lounges, and an outdoor pavilion intended for yoga, meditation, cultural events, and private entertaining. The park is accessible only to Eighty Seven Park residents and their guests. It is permanently protected from development. The combination of the 35-acre North Shore Open Space Park to the south and the West 8 private garden to the north creates a 37-acre natural buffer surrounding the building on two sides — a land use combination that is architecturally irreplaceable in the Miami Beach market.
