A master building permit has been issued for Baccarat Residences Miami, a luxury condominium tower developed by Related Group and GTIS Partners and designed by Arquitectónica. Miami’s Building Department issued the permit to allow for the continued development of the 848-foot-tall skyscraper, under construction at 99 Southeast 5th Street and expected to be completed in early 2028. John Moriarty & Associates serves as the general contractor for this project.
The permit, issued on July 15, replaces a phased vertical permit and marks a significant step forward for the project, the second tower set to rise on the property. The Baccarat Residences Miami is one of the tallest towers to ever go vertical in Miami, with a planned floor count of 75 stories 848 feet above ground and 852 feet above sea level. Construction has been underway since October 2023, and tower cranes installed in recent months are planned to reach heights of 887 feet above ground and 906 feet above sea level.
