Total Demolition Permit Issued At Edgewater Site Where 60-Story Tower Planned

Miami’s Building Department has issued a total demolition permit for one of the buildings on the Edgewater site where the 60-story Hamilton House is planned.

Five adjacent 2-story multifamily properties with a combined 22 units are planned to be demolished, under five separate total demolition permits.

One of the total demolition permits was issued on September 11, while a second was approved on September 12.

The remaining three total demolition permits are still in review. A construction permit for the new tower is also still in review.

The Hamiltion is planned to rise 60 stories or 649 feet, with 241 apartments and a 3,500 square foot restaurant.

Aimco is the developer.

Plus I like the low-rise wing with the rooftop palms. Harkens back a touch to “Old Miami”

Too far uptown from the core and not connected with transportation. Keep it low, affordable and quiet like it is now…

This is centrally located – pull out a map.

Miami Beach in 5 minutes. Design District in 5 minutes. Wynwood in 5 minutes. Worldcenter/Museums/Parks in 5 minutes.

Sure if you’re on vacation and all you do is shop, go to the beach and eat.

Uh if your office is in Aventura or points north, it’s a quick jump on 95..add site visits to other buildings on the beach or even around here..and this location would provide an awesome spot to WFH. Plus 112 is there to rideshare to the airport when I travel to the main office.

It’s far from Coral Gables and Coconut Grove and there’s no metro to the financial district. Why are we urbanizing it?

It’s really far from the Miami urban core and feels desolate to walk. Maybe in 10 years but why wait? Too much traffic there

Absolutely not. Good riddance to the junky low rises of yesterday’s Edgewater.

Agreed that Related and its sister of Arquitectonica are the downfall of Miami design.

You should come to our park sometime. It’s bigger and better than any of Brickell’s parks and is always full to the brink. Edgewater is exploding.

It’s a nice and very regular park. I enjoy Miami Circle and the new River Walk park and Underline to Coconut Grove and Biscayne Bay, there’s always something new to see or somewhere different to experience in Brickell.

Vote for developing and promoting the areas near public transit, not this suburban bayfront poorly planned area

Hopefully it gets far worse as all the cars have to wait longer and longer to make turns since there are so many pedestrians out. Stay out of your car – it is possible in this region

Not when you or your spouse works in the suburbs. But there’s that nasty 4 letter word, “work”. It screws with urbanista plans so often!

You must be new here! “Edgewater” is a neighborhood in the city of Miami, just north of downtown.

Some of the areas considered Miami’s suburbs are Pinecrest, Kendall, Aventura, Doral, etc

Yeah that’s why the real estate is so cheap over there and they keep building more affordable housing with no metro mover.

Edge water is like living in Jersey City, it kind of has a vibe but it’s really just hard to get to and nobody wants to visit.
