Okan Tower: Foundation Pour Photos & Estimated Completion Date Released

Contractors recently completed a foundation pour for the 70-story Okan Tower, which is set to reach a height of 902 feet in the air.

It will be one of Miami’s tallest towers when it reaches completion, which is now planned for 2027, the developer said in a statement yesterday.

Okan Tower is planned to include 163 residential units, 236 short-term rental residences managed by Hilton, and a 316-key Hilton Miami Bayfront Hotel along with 64,000 square feet of Class A office space.

For the foundation pour, 12,000 cubic yards of concrete was poured, with 2,300 tons of high strength reinforcing steel placed.

The 36-hour continuous pour began on Friday, March 29. A crew of 300 workers across three shifts completed the job with the help of 1,200 concrete trucks.

General contractor Jacob Companies joint ventured with Okan Construction oversaw the pour.

Okan Group is the developer.

Our skyline will never be the same after this beauty is built. I’m so happy it came back from the dead. This one along with the calle ocho tower and the Aston Martin building will make our skyline less boxy.

Because of its location – this will be one of the most prominent on the skyline.

The Hilton should’ve been The Jail Hotel as it’s closer to that than the bay.

These numbers, such as 1,200 trucks, are impressive.

The only bad part that it’s really close to jail and it will be built right next Downtown 5th, with on side of the building facing directly on to the balconies of Downtown 5th
