Exterior work is nearing completion on the newly constructed CitizenM Brickell, 277-foot tall hotel in Miami‘s Brickell neighborhood. Addressed as 955 South Miami Avenue, the building is designed by Gensler and developed by CitizenM Hotels, a hospitality brand founded by hotelier Rattan Chadha. The 21-story hotel will include 252 lodging units, mostly micro-sized rooms starting at 157 square feet, and up to 4,174 square feet of commercial space at the ground floor.
Recent photos demonstrate the state of construction at the site. Most of the glass panels of facade have been installed and mostly remain protected from the elements with the blue film still in tact. The hoist elevator has yet to be disassembled as materials and equipment is still being carried up to the structure. The tower stands surrounded by multiple taller buildings due to the fact that no parking structure was built within; typically a multi-story parking garage would add significant height to a building.

CitizenM Brickell features two massive murals of colorful art. The theme for the mural walls blend well with the color-filled podiums of SLS Brickell and Brickell Heights Condo.

I love it. The one in MWC might be nicer though… can’t wait for their frontage reveal.
