Window installation is nearing completion on Metro Edgewater, a topped-off 32 story residential building at 452 Northeast 31st Street in Edgewater, Miami. designed by Burgos Lanza & Associates and developed by Prodesa International LLC under the Metro Edgewater LLC, the rectangular reinforced concrete superstructure rises 373-feet and will yield approximately 520,638 square feet of new construction including 279 rental apartments, 4,230 square feet of ground floor retail, and a parking garage with 300 spaces. Ortega Construction Company is the general contractor with L&R Structural as the shell contractor.
Recent aerial photos show the progress of construction on the building, which topped off in September, and the progression of the window installation. The first pairs of glass panels and aluminum window frames have reached the top floor, with the levels up to the 27th floor completed and four more levels to finalize the entire scope of work. Exterior work, which will involve waterproofing and smoothing down the concrete shell with dark gray stucco, should commence soon. YIMBY last checked in on construction for Metro Edgewater in December 2021, when formwork had just reached the 5th level.
