The groundbreaking date depends on the pace of leasing.
The tower will rise 68 stories, or nearly 1,000 feet, the report said.

Bold emphasis mine. Demo in late first quarter of old office building. Meaning construction probably starts late 2023 at earliest prob 2024.

The Related Cos. and Swire Properties filed detailed designs with Miami officials for South Florida’s largest office building.
The developers revealed plans for One Brickell City Centre, on the east side of the Brickell City Centre mixed-use project, in June. The new tower would replace the office building fronting Brickell Avenue between Southeast Seventh Street and Southeast Eighth Street. Since city officials approved the change to the special area plan for Brickell City Centre a few months ago, the developers recently filed a detailed site plan with the city, providing a closer look at the building.
Billionaire Stephen Ross, the chairman of the Related Cos. and owner of the Miami Dolphins, recently said many companies are looking to move to Miami, and he’s confident One Brickell City Centre will find plenty of tenants.
Jordan Bargas, senior VP in Related Cos.' new Miami office, said the 68-story One Brickell City Centre would have 1.5 million square feet of office space and rise nearly 1,000 feet. It would have the largest office floor plates of any building in downtown Miami or Brickell, he said, with 50,000-square-foot floor plates on the floors above the parking podium. On the narrower section of the tower, the floor plates would average 32,000 square feet. The ceiling height would range from 15 to 19 feet.
“That will help attract technology and financial firms that are used to those larger floor plates,” Bargas said. “The plan is to create another Hudson Yards-quality building, and bring that level of office to Miami for the first time.”
(Hudson Yards is Related Cos.' 28-acre development on the west side of Manhattan.)
Each floor will also have ample outdoor spaces on terraces so employees can enjoy Miami’s weather, he said.
“Companies can house a large number of staff on the same level, instead of on multiple floors, which is a huge benefit, in terms of collaboration and working together,” said David Martin, Swire's VP of leasing for One Brickell City Centre. “This sort of product doesn’t exist in Miami now.”
Martin said many of the technology and financial companies that opened small offices in Miami during the Covid-19 pandemic found that many of their employees want to work here. This has led to much larger offices in Miami.
Miami-based Arquitectonica designed the project, and CBRE is the leasing broker.
The new office tower will be directly connected to first phase of Brickell City Centre, including the mall and hotel. There will be a covered walkway to the Eighth Street Station of the Metromover, which circulates people around downtown. The Climate Ribbon, a shade feature that captures the breeze, will be extended from the mall and wrap around the office building to reach Brickell Avenue.
Bargas said the office building will have a host of amenities – many of them related to wellness – along with a high-end restaurant and a helipad on the roof. Martin said the ground floor will have a large covered drop-off area for ride-sharing and delivery services.
Demolition of the old office building should begin in the late first quarter, Bargas said. The groundbreaking date largely relies on the pace of the leasing effort.
“We have great momentum on the leasing front,” he added. “We are meeting with people in California, Chicago and New York – all of the places we are seeing talented employees coming to Miami from.”

Also the rendering from article above looks like they got ride of the bronze color and is more gray/silvery. I'm not sure the source of the rendering from the link above. But I'd guess the more VE'ed version is the most recent one. Anyone know?
