Just a few weeks ago, YIMBY reported on the first detailed rendering of Brickell Gateway, a transit-oriented mixed-use high rise proposed for 90 Southwest 8th Street by developers Gazit Globe and Atlantic Pacific Communities. Another recent filing requesting a zoning hearing with Miami-Dade County planners has revealed a new set of preliminary plans that significantly increases the height of the tower from 643-feet to approximately 699-feet; a 56-foot jump. Designed by Coral Gables-based Corwil Architects, the building would now span 59 stories instead of 54, including a boost in retail and parking spaces, and overall yield 854,902 square feet of new construction with 504 residential units.
Major, another supertall skyscraper of mixed-uses planned to rise in the heart of Miami’s financial district, has been submitted to the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) for review.

An elite team of designers and engineers has been assembled for the project, which includes New York-based Studio Sofield along with ODP Architecture & Design as the architect of record; Desimone Consulting Engineers is the structural engineer and MG Engineering is the MEP engineer; SLS is the code consultant and Kimley-Horn the landscape architect and civil engineer; Lerch Bates will handle vertical transportation and Walker Parking as the parking consultant; Socotec Consulting Inc. will oversee all enclosures, waterproofing and roofing.
