A more in-depth analysis of the five approved building permits for Brickell Gateway unveils that the FAA has determined that the structure would not significantly impact the safe and efficient utilization of navigable airspace by aircraft or the operation of air navigation facilities. With the ability to rise to a height of 761 feet, or 772 feet above mean sea level owing to the 11-foot site elevation, the structure has been thoroughly reviewed, and this process was concluded on August 23. These permits are set to expire on February 23, 2025, indicating that the developers are poised to embark on construction shortly, especially considering that the site is now cleared and primed for groundbreaking.
