From the pics above, it looks like 4 floors have been completed, and 96 more to go. I can't wait for this bad boy to be a reality soon!!!

This this is going to be impressive.

Waldorf and Okan are both on the 4th floor.

Miami has some lucky skyscraper fans!

Do you believe that the Waldorf Astoria Miami is being constructed by a floor per week? If so, then that would mean that it would have 19 floors by the end of this year, 71 floors by the end of next year, and the construction would probably be complete by either June or July of 2026. That would be great if the developers can complete this by the US's semiquincentennial.

I think they'll have no trouble managing a floor per week. The footprint is relatively small. I think it will be at least 3 floors every 2 weeks. Some buildings manage 2 per week but that's basically max speed.

Currently Okan says they are doing a floor per week and that is a bit larger.

It will be fun to see how fast each progress comparatively as they're both at roughly the exact same height right now.

So they're working on Floor 9 in looks like. That's only about 2.5 floors in the last month.

The base is the bulkier and more complicated part of the building of course.

I still think they'll get to > 1 floor per week as they go taller.

It already feels very impressive. The building is going to be a huge head turner.

Really coming together. Thank you for all your updates we're spoiled!

No prob! I was downtown for early voting at Government Center and it was a nice Sunday stroll.

If it’s three floors every two weeks, that means that 3 floors X 26 = 78 floors per year. If that happens, at the very least, the structural skeleton will rise before the glass and the other fixtures rise with it, and more than likely the Waldorf Astoria would become the tallest building in Miami before it even opens to the public!

Me either! I haven't seen that one yet! It's different angled, not the same angled.

Which floor is the Waldorf at now? We need a diagram which can count the amount of floors that have been completed!

You would think there would be more consistent updates with this being Miami's first supertall.

Construction height has surpassed the 10 story adjacent Holiday Inn

Oh wow they are cranking now. 2 floors a week starting next year methinks.

Also you can see 'first glass' on the bottom left!

ChiND · #**498** Posted **Dec 19, 2024, 5:46 PM**

This tower is absolutely hideous. Citadel’s is boring, but the Waldorf is an eyesore.

I like the dark finishes, it will contrast vs all the many blue/white surrounding skyscrapers.
