Vertical construction is now set to begin at a Brickell property where the 54-story Miami River tower is planned.
The newly installed cranes are eventually planned to rise 760 feet above ground, according to a filing with the FAA.
The Miami River phase 1 tower itself is planned to top off with a permanent height of 640 feet above ground, making it the only tower to surpass the 600-foot mark this far west in Miami.
The first phase of Miami River will have 632 apartments, retail space, and a promenade on the river that will be open to the public.
Eventually, there will be multiple phases, with a total of 1,678 residential units, 330 hotel rooms, 196,882-square-feet of retail space, and 98,040-square-feet of office space.
