Construction continues to rise on 2600 Biscayne, a 41-story mixed-use tower at 2626 Biscayne Boulevard and 246 NE 26th Terrace in Edgewater, Miami. Designed by the globally-renowned architecture firm Arquitectonica with interior design by Vida Design and developed by Oak Row Equities, the 521-foot-tall structure will comprise over 900,000 square feet of space, including 187,000 square feet of office and retail space and 399 luxurious rental residences ranging from studios to three-bedroom units with dens. Coastal Construction is the general contractor, KD Construction of Florida is the shell contractor, C&C Concrete Pumping is the concrete contractor and CEMEX is the concrete provider. The project occupies an entire city block bordered by Biscayne Boulevard to the east, NE 26th Terrace to the north, NE 26th Street to the south, and NE 2nd Avenue to the west.
Recent aerial photos reveal the steady vertical climb of 2600 Biscayne, with shell construction now reaching skyward and visible from a distance. At the time of capture, the concrete pour for the 14th floor appears complete. At the same time, decking and formwork for the 15th level were actively assembled on the tower’s northern end. The central core wall seems to be advancing slightly faster, estimated to be around the 16th or 17th floor. Progress on the building envelope is also evident, with glass installation underway on the lower levels, clearly showcasing the expansive floor-to-ceiling window design. Formwork for the adjacent parking garage structure also progresses west of the central tower. Notably, the distinctive rhombus-shaped base of the tower is now fully formed, indicating that the subsequent levels will likely feature repetitive floor plate dimensions as the structure continues its ascent.

Upon completion, 2600 Biscayne will showcase a striking façade that blends stucco finishes with expansive, seemingly translucent glass windows once the protective blue film is removed. The building’s frame will contrast with a darker stucco finish on the lower office volume and the upper residential volume, exhibiting white stucco rectangular sections with grey stucco accents in between. Large-scale murals by the acclaimed artist Derrick Adams are planned for the northern and southern elevations of the parking garage, serving as a vibrant and unifying artistic element that seamlessly connects the parking structure to the main residential and office tower.

It just keeps growing and growing. Hopefully in December Florida YIMBY will do a countdown to put all these projects in perspective so we can truly understand everything being built in Miami.
Great photography!
Hello, will this building have any workforce units for low income tenants?
Thanks
