FA Commercial, the leading commercial team at Fortune International Realty, is exclusively representing the ground-floor retail component at RIVANI, Miami Beach’s first “Class X” office building. The project, led by developer Robert Rivani, reflects a broader evolution in how office environments are conceived, with experience and amenities playing a central role in long-term value.
Located at 1691 Michigan Avenue, just steps from the Lincoln Road corridor, RIVANI introduces a level of amenity-driven design rarely seen in office environments, including a wellness-focused infrastructure with spa facilities, a fitness center, a biohacking room, concierge services, and a curated café concept. The ground floor includes four distinct retail suites totaling approximately 13,500 square feet, each designed to complement the building’s Class X positioning and attract operators consistent with its level of quality and clientele.
“This is not traditional retail,” said Fabio Faerman. “Each space is part of a larger ecosystem. The goal is to curate operators that elevate the overall experience of the building while also benefiting from a highly targeted, affluent audience.”
The retail offering includes two flagship spaces of 3,770 and 5,255 square feet, ideal for medical spas, boutique fitness concepts such as yoga or Pilates, or high-end furniture showrooms. The main restaurant and café opportunities, ranging from approximately 1,300 to 3,500 square feet, are adjacent to the lobby entrance, serving both office tenants and local pedestrian traffic. The retail suites are designed to benefit from both the daily flow of RIVANI’s executive tenants and the broader Lincoln Road foot traffic. The result is a rare combination of a captive audience and destination visibility, a dynamic that is increasingly rare in Miami Beach.
Sebastian Faerman notes that this positioning requires a deliberate leasing approach. “We’re not approaching this as a traditional lease-up,” he said. “Each tenant has to make sense within the context of the building. The right mix will define how the project is experienced on a daily basis.”
“Assignments like this reflect the level of trust our agents have earned in the market,” said Ruth Palma, Vice President of Sales at Fortune International Realty. “They also reflect the caliber of our commercial team and their role in bringing high-quality projects to market.”
For Fortune International Realty, the project underscores its commercial capabilities, particularly in high-profile, design-driven developments where leasing strategy plays a critical role in long-term positioning.
