Ten Museum Park is a residential skyscraper in the City of Miami, Florida, United States. It is located in northeastern Downtown, and forms part of the Biscayne Wall, a series of skyscrapers visible from Biscayne Bay along the west side of Biscayne Boulevard. It was designed by Chad Oppenheim of Oppenheim Architecture + Design. Completed in early 2007, it opened for residential occupancy in mid-2007. The building is 585 feet (178 m) tall, and has 50 floors with only 200 units, making it an exclusive address. The building itself is designed to reflect the heat from the sun while still keeping warmth, the building is also designed to withstand 140 mph winds. It currently stands as the 13th-tallest building in Miami.

Ten Museum Park contains 20,000 square feet (1,858 m²) of Class A office space, retail space on the lower floors, and residential condominium units, which occupy most of the space on the upper floors. While appearing to be a typical skyscraper with identical floorplates, the residential levels are varying. The east-facing units are interlocking lofts, providing each unit with an eastern view and either a north or south-facing view as well. Lower level west-facing units are shallow flats with large expanses of glass. Upper levels of the building contain either double-height spaces or three-floor loft arrangements. Some units feature independent soaking pools.

The lower levels of Ten Museum Park hold a lifestyle development; the building notably contains a Clinique La Prairie spa, the first in the United States, as well as several high-end boutiques in its lobby.

The tower makes up part of the Biscayne Wall, a series of skyscrapers along the western side of Biscayne Boulevard north of the Central Business District in Miami. Ten Museum Park was the first building of the Wall to finish construction. It is directly across the street from the Marquis tower. The building's grand opening occurred in February 2007; Ten Museum Park is one of the many new Miami skyscrapers that were completed and opened in the year 2007.
