Glad to see this is moving forward. I was afraid it wasn’t going to happen. This is an important project for the development of western Brickell

Finally! I was wondering about this awesome project. Unique and memorable. I love this project. Will be an excellent addition to a skyline choked out with unidentifiable boring stucco boxes.

Agree, more architectural masterpieces on 2nd Ave, with luxury mid rises west of 2nd up to I95.

This is the good location for more retail, fitness clubs and a gourmet market/cafe. Brickell City Centre is breaking records and there’s already foot traffic here.

Possible businesses:

Eataly, Papyrus, Amazon Grab N Go Store, Express, Nordstrom, Home Goods, Target… a quality nail salon to have a mimosa and relax… stores where they sell dogs/cats…book stores…

Also would be good spot for art museum, theater, or independent cinema (doesn’t have to be on the water b/c it’s all inside).

Bury the lines in 2nd ave. It looks so awful.

I actually looked into this. Think I saw you or someone comment about it. The law requires all new buildings to have wiring underground, so those lines are just for the older holdovers.

As the neighborhood transitions and modernizes the wires will go down and new lights and better paved and decorated crosswalks and landscaping will come 👍

This work is what other develops should model themselves after aesthetically. For the most part most Miami high rise are bland, soulless boxes. Architecture defines a city. Right now Miami is not doing very well… Save for 1 Southside Park. Lets build it !

architecture is not just high rises miami has lots of nice low and mid rises and also lots of beautiful homes. Miami has better high rises that some people think , they are not on the first row of high rises so they are not that visible

So make the first row something special, why western section of Brickell is so essential. It’s viewable from i95 and entrance to Brickell. It can still be rectified with new developments.

Couldn’t agree more!

There’s also still room/time for modern urban planning.

For example, including shaded well lit paseos between blocks of architectural masterpieces, raised retail cantilevers like in BCC, and green parks/squares. Also there’s an entire sliver of land along I-95 which could be utilized for a park and have playgrounds for kids since there are new schools going up there.

They are adding a new grand round about, how about a modern Arch de Triumph – every major city in the US has one, and it attracts pedestrians, and would connect Brickell to the upscale Roads neighborhood, where restaurants and retail are still accessible by foot.

I agree about most high-rises being bland, but frankly this one is too much. How about some more curves, spires, and classicism done right?

There is still plenty of vacant land in that area.

This will be an iconic landmark for Miami 🤩 they call it the gateway to Brickell and will definitely activate the western segment of Brickell.

They’ve already drilled those stabilizing beams (excuse me for not knowing the technical word) into the ground.

That would be nice if it gets built . It’s been “under construction” for years now.

Great design and great location! The building will add needed depth to the skyline.

The park isn’t going to age well. I mean, it looks like something on the side of a Related building’s parking garage. All though colors will chip and fade. Maybe more attention should have been spent for more shade trees and amenities other than one basketball court that isn’t even multi-purpose for tennis and pickleball.

Flood the market with units it’s what’s needed at the moment…who knows what the market will look like when complete in 4 yrs and that’s the risk/reward in this game always.
