It was developed by Florida East Coast Realty, and was completed in late 2007. The Opera Tower received its temporary certificate of occupancy on December 26, 2007. The 60-story tower is located at 1750 North Bayshore Drive in Omni District[1], just north of Downtown Miami, and contains 635 luxury condominiums.
Resales for condominiums units were handled by Vistas International Realty. As of May 2009[update], the tower has faced significant vacancies and has incorporated a "apart-hotel" format. Unlike competing "Quantum on the Bay", "Opera" was never a sell out and has faced trouble selling all of its developer units.
