Construction has reached the 40-story mark at Baccarat Residences Miami, a 75-story residential skyscraper underway along the Miami River in Brickell. The development is rising from a waterfront parcel officially addressed as 99 SE 5th Street according to permits, though it is widely marketed under the address 444 Brickell Avenue, reflecting its frontage along the avenue. The project is being developed by Related Group and GTIS Partners, with John Moriarty & Associates serving as general contractor, Arquitectonica as architect, Meyer Davis handling interiors, and Enzo Enea leading landscape design. Upon completion, the tower is expected to rise around 835 feet at the mouth of the Miami River.

Superstructure work is beginning to intensify at 2900 Terrace, a 32-story multifamily tower rising at 401 NE 29th Street in Miami’s Edgewater neighborhood. Designed by Arquitectonica and developed by Oak Row Equities and LNDMRK Properties, the 362-foot-tall structure is expected to yield more than 360,000 square feet of space, according to the master permit. The project will contain 324 rental units, 15,536 square feet of ground-floor retail space, and parking for up to 504 vehicles within its podium. Coastal Construction is serving as the general contractor, with L&R Structural acting as the shell contractor overseeing the tower’s concrete frame. The approximately 1.5-acre development site is bounded by NE 29th Terrace to the north, NE 4th Avenue to the west, and NE 29th Street to the south.

The tower reached its full height roughly 12 months after construction began in early 2025 and remains on track for completion in the fourth quarter of 2026.

Construction is approaching the 50-story mark on Okan Tower, the 902-foot-tall, 70-story mixed-use skyscraper underway at 555 North Miami Avenue in Downtown Miami.

The project was introduced in 2016 and is expected to be completed in 2027.
