501 First Residences

Updated June 2026

501 First Residences is a 40-story tower with more than 440 residences in Downtown Miami, delivered in 2026 by Aria Development Group. Its headline feature is a flexible short-term-rental policy, with listing sources citing leases as short as one day, so owners can run units on Airbnb and similar platforms. Floor plans run from studios to two bedrooms.

It delivered in 2026 and runs 40 stories with more than 440 residences. The whole building was designed around flexibility for investors: listing sources cite a short-term-rental policy with leases as short as one day, so a unit can run as a nightly rental rather than a standard annual lease. The floor plans are compact, mostly studios and one-bedrooms, which is exactly what the nightly-rental market wants.

  • There are 28 active units for sale at 501 First Residences, priced $414,500 – $1,050,000 (SEFMLS, live), so there is real, current inventory to compare against.
  • Floor plans are compact and flexible, mostly studios and one-bedrooms, which suits the nightly-rental investor it was built for.

What it's actually like to own here

This is not a quiet residential tower, and it was never meant to be one. 501 First was designed for owners who want a Downtown unit that pays for itself, so the building runs more like a hospitality operation than a sleepy condo. The amenity stack lives mostly on the roof: a 75-foot lap pool, a deck with 360-degree views, a movie theater, coworking space, and a fitness center with yoga and private training rooms. There is even a pet spa and pet lounge, so the pet-friendly policy is built into the bones of the place.

501 First was built for owners who want a Downtown unit that pays for itself.

Floor plans and what units cost

The residences are compact and flexible by design, weighted toward studios and one-bedrooms with a handful of two-bedrooms. That mix is deliberate: smaller units rent by the night more easily and carry lower entry prices. As of the latest MLS pull there are 28 active units asking $414,500 – $1,050,000. The middle of that sat near $594,950, or about $1,074 a square foot (SEFMLS, live).

Monthly maintenance runs around $801 at the median across active units. On a short-term-rental unit that fee is a cost of doing business, so weigh it against the nightly income you expect rather than against a long-term lease. Always confirm the exact figure and what it covers for the specific unit.

The unit mix leans to studios and one-bedrooms, which is what the nightly-rental market wants.

The Downtown Miami location

The address is 501 NE 1st Avenue, in the heart of Downtown Miami. Miami Worldcenter, Bayside Marketplace, the Kaseya Center, and the Brightline station are all within a short radius, which is part of why short-term demand holds up here. The map, walk-time list, and nearby-buildings sections above show exactly what is within reach on foot and by car.

501 First sits in the center of Downtown, walking distance to Worldcenter and Brightline.

Buying and owning at 501 First Residences

Because 501 First was built for investors, the math is different here than at a typical condo. The flexible short-term-rental policy, with leases as short as one day per listing sources, means a unit can earn nightly income instead of a standard annual lease, which changes how buyers underwrite the purchase. There are currently 28 active units on the market (SEFMLS, live), so there is real, current inventory to price against.

Before you commit, confirm three things in writing: the HOA dues and what they include, the current short-term-rental rules and any building management program, and how the association handles guest access and amenities. Rental policies can change, and on an investment unit that policy is the whole thesis, so get it in writing before you close.
