FAA Application & Demolition Permit Filed At 600 Miami Worldcenter

An application has been filed with the Federal Aviation Administration for the 600 Miami Worldcenter project.

A demolition permit has also just been applied for.

According to the May 23 filing with the FAA, the tower will rise 327 feet above ground, or 339 feet above sea level.

According to the May 16 demolition permit filing with Miami’s Building Department, a total of 5,000 square feet will be demolished at the former Longshoresmens site. The BG Group is listed as the demolition contractor.

There is also a separate demolition permit pending for another portion of the 600 Worldcenter site.

600 Miami Worldcenter will include 579 residential units in a 32-story tower allowing for short term rentals.

Revuelta is the architect.

A total of four towers are planned on the same block, including Okan Tower (under construction), Downtown 6th (in pre-development), and The Crosby (under construction).

They should build a glass tunnel around it and make the surrounding area a long park, dog park, and walking path. Ideally a bridge to go over it would be great too so pedestrians can easily cross when the train passes. And lastly, a Metromover above it. Would be fantastic to take people from downtown to the Port.

While you’re at it, don’t forget shore power and bike lanes.

A glass tunnel…? A simple rail trail with greenery and public art, a place to walk your dog and socialize, would suffice. Nice concrete path, benches, plants.

Agreed, it is blighted and dangerous and should be addressed as it occupies some serious square footage into a multibillion dollar development.

The freight train to the port runs 2 maybe 3 times a day in and out it doesn’t cause that much of a disturbance especially when business is slow like right now

Can anyone explain why FAA height permits aren’t directly tied to Zoning laws/permission? Seems like a lot of extra bureaucracy to wait 6-9 months for FAA approval when buildings nearby have been approved for same or taller heights. Feel like each parcel of land should already come with height approval.

It’s not that long. For confirming applications it’s 60 days. Nonconforming applications up to 120 days. Special categories which almost never apply up to 180 days.

The density of this area will add to the success to MWC. The foot traffic alone will transform this area

I love that all these towers have different heights, it allows for a very nice visual.

Although Caoba is a great development, this one really shows night and day on utilizing street level and not being a giant parking podium with sad covering.

The round edges are nice! Would love to see this in the new Brickell buildings.

Great for density. Too bad that whole area is filled with Airbnb though. Downtown 6th starts development next month. 2024 is going to be huge for this area!

As if Downtown 6th isn’t going to be another Airbnb?

By “filled with Airbnb” do you mean filled with individuals who own private property and advertise it for rent on Airbnb?

If so, would you feel better if they just advertised in the Miami Herald, Craigslist, or Facebook Marketplace?

Maybe you don’t like private property ownership and would rather have the government own all the housing. I really do not understand.

I don’t agree with much of what you say, Checo, but on this point I wholeheartedly agree. I am a local investor and should have the right to rent my unit as often as I please. I carefully screen my applicants to ensure my unit is not damaged, which also ensures my neighbors don’t have to deal with undesirable short-term guests.
