Sales have launched for the highly-anticipated Okan Tower, a 70-story mixed-use skyscraper planned to rise at 555 North Miami Avenue in the epicenter of Miami’s urban core. Designed by Behar Font & Partners for Turkish real estate developer Okan Group, the 902-foot-tall structure will be anchored by Hilton Hotel & Residences and yield 163 Sky Residences with exclusive owners-only amenities, 236 Condo-Hotel Residences, a five-star hotel-resort with 316 room and endless amenities, and Class A Office Space. Plans for the project are now being fast-tracked with Fortune Development Sales leading sales and marketing.
The development site currently sits on the southeast corner of the junction between North Miami Avenue and Northeast 6th Street, bounded by Northeast 5th Street to the south and Northeast 1st Avenue to the east. The interior lot is mostly vacant and essentially ready for breaking ground, bordered by Melo Group’s twin 51-story Downtown 5th towers and the development site for the proposed Downtown 6th residential tower.

The influx of corporate relocations to downtown, Florida’s favorable tax benefits, addition of the flourishing Miami Worldcenter, and the coexistence of new dining, hip shops, and entertainment venues such as the Frost Museum, PAMM, Adrienne Arsht Center and FTX Arena has created an urban utopia desired internationally. Transportation options such as the Brightline Train Station and Miami International Airport – most recently named the busiest international airport in the country – are also conveniently located, creating an easily accessible destination to live, work, play or stay.”

With its distinctive ultra-modern aesthetic, Okan Tower brings Miami into the international design spotlight once again, while also offering every imaginable amenity and service desired – if not demanded – by the world’s most sophisticated prime property buyers,” said international property magnate and developer of Okan Tower, Bekir Okan, Chairman of Okan Group.

This has the potential to be a gorgeous building if they don’t value engineer it. Love the top and the open-air amenity level details.
