Demolition of a downtown Miami parking garage is now underway, new photos by Phillip Pessar show.
The 7-story garage is being demolished to make way for the 57-story M-Tower Apartment building.
Building Department records show that a demolition permit for the garage was approved in March. The construction permit to begin the new tower is not yet approved.
M-Tower is planned to rise 598 feet and include:
- 675 apartments and
- 10,411 square feet of retail
- 694 parking spaces in an 8-story podium
The garage being demolished has 658 spaces.
