Revealed: 59-Story Two Riverside Planned In Brickell

Plans have been submitted to Miami’s Urban Development Review Board for a residential tower in Brickell called Two Riverside.

Two Riverside is proposed to rise 59 stories, or 730 feet above ground and 732 feet above sea level and include:

  • 169 residential units
  • 1,090 square feet ground floor retail
  • 0 new parking spaces (parking will be provided at Lofty Brickell next door)

The project will be a “signature development,” that will activate the riverfront with a public riverwalk and ground floor commercial space, the developer previously told the Miami River Commission.

Brandon Haw Architecture is the design architect, with ODP the architect of record. The rest of the project team includes Urban Robot (landscape architect), DeSimone (structural engineer), Cosentini (MEP/FP engineer), SLS Consulting (life safety), and Kimley Horn (civil engineer).

Newgard Group is the developer

The UDRB hearing is scheduled for November 15.

Can’t wait to see the Riverside neighborhood west of I95 developed to look just as stunning!

You’ll get Melo-tier trash without a Metrorail extension. Also, it should be redeveloped with infill in mind. Save the historic buildings with great potential.

can’t think of any place that comes close except for hudson yards, in 5-10 years it’s going to look like Dubai/singapore in a good way.

Singapore prioritizes green space so I don’t think that’s an accurate comparison – Brickell does the opposite, as we’ve seen with the recent rezoning of another Brickell park.

Nobody is going to spend hours on a bare green lawn in 100-plus degrees. Grass and palm trees to little against the heat island effect.

palm trees in a park? you may as well put up street lights to provide some shade…

I did last recently in another city nearby, there were performance and people were gathered in the law like Central Park, but we need the space first.

It had fountains lush landscaping public art and cool lighting, you’re right grass alone is insufficient or it would look like the laughable job the city did with Miami circle

Hello – Have you been to Singapore? Singapore has a hotter climate throughout the year than Miami. Miami is hot in summer/fall, but less hot in winter/spring.

anon

ahh singapore. year round equatorial jungle heat. i know what it feels like and miami doesn’t compare. its like landing in cartagena airport and walking onto the tarmac with the 100% humidity.. the shade makes up for it though and miami needs real shade trees, not ugly live oaks that developers always opt for that barely grow and provide very little shade compared to other beautiful lush trees found in miami.

Anon

live oaks are native and when mature provide lots of shade. Miami heat May-Oct DOES compare to Singapore. don’t know what you’re on about.

So the river walk will be a side walk? How will that work? Joggers walkers bicyclists will have to go in single file one way! lol come on

This lot is so, so narrow. I assumed this would be public space – can’t believe they are putting a building here.

The Angle of that rendering doesn’t show it very well.
In the submission they had a plan and some elevations,
It actually looks pretty nice.
It’s still the min. required. Like 4 feet so it’s nothing crazy but for a lot this thin it would be shocking if they gave anything more than required.

Anon

It’s just a sidewalk. Not much thought put into the most unique attribute of this site – it’s adjacency to the river.

Anonymous

There’s tons of park space on both sides and bench’s, and being a slim building it’s easy to walk around unlike Baccarat plans. This is approved!

Anon
24 days ago

There is not “tons of park space on both sides”. It is a 10′ wide concrete sidewalk with 10 palm trees – and there are no benches. This is clearly seen in the released plan.

True but still an improvement over what it is and still a part of a unified and connected riverwalk right next to the underline…a major win overall!

Anon

I dont know – I wish the city cared more about public spaces.

Anon

It’s because all the city commisioners live in the suburbs and are out of touch. With new districting and population growth we should get more representatives who actually live in the city 🤞

even if Lofty Brickell has parking for this, still a win that this has nothing. no need to cover an ugly podium if there isn’t one 🙂

Well… baccarat never really came out with any updated exterior renderings. The renderings are from the original one brickell from like 10 years ago. In any case, BACCARAT is 94% sold out!

It is so easy to get by with BS in this city.
Miami has the potential of having a really world class, unique river and baywalk, but noooo there is no vision or desire to work for the city.

These units must be some big floorplans. 169 units is not a lot of units for 59 stories.
Even if you subtract a few floors for amenities, it’s still about only 3 units per floor 👀
Kinda rare for Miami. Especially right on the river. Interesting.

Pool?

i wonder if they will use Lofty’s pool amenities as well, unless theirs is on the roof?

lots of big tall towers on one side of I95 and none on the other side… Little Havana dying for an upzoning right now and it shows. The area has high land values and no development because the zoning is poor – to say the least. FREE JOSE MARTIE AND EAST LITTLE HAVANA!
