A 38 story office tower has been proposed for the corner of Brickell Avenue and SE 10th Street at 888 Brickell Ave, according to The Next Miami. The site is across the street from the under construction 1010 Brickell.

The proposed office tower would have 304,950 square feet of space, retail and restaurant space and 264 parking spaces. It would reach a height of 472 feet.

Currently on the site is a 7 story office tower built in 1972. The building was purchased in 1984 for $6.3 million by Alphatur N.V. Corporation who are also developing the new tower.

The architect is Arquitectonica who have also designed the nearby Brickell City Centre, SLS Brickell, SLS Lux Brickell and Brickell Heights.

The Transformation Of Brickell Since 2013

The Brickell district of Miami has changed significantly since the 1980s when it was comprised mostly of financial buildings and low rise apartment buildings.

In the early 2000s, condos started popping up in the area and along Brickell Avenue. The recession hit in 2008 and building came to a halt in Miami. It wasn't until 2012 when Brickell City Centre started construction that the market picked up and more condos were added to the growing Miami skyline. In 2012, there were many empty lots scattered around Brickell. Those lots are now filled with condos such as Brickell City CentreBrickell Heights, SLS Lux, SLS Brickell, My Brickell, 1100 Millecento, Bond at Brickell, Panorama Tower, 1010 Brickell, Brickell Flatiron and Solitair Brickell.

The Brickell skyline will only continue to change in the future with proposed condos in the works such as One Brickell, Edge on Brickell, 830 Brickell, Villa Magna and One Brickell City Centre.

Not only is Brickell experiencing a change, but also West Brickell, which is located West of the Metrorail tracks.
