Construction on Florida’s First Supertall Skyscraper Surpasses One-Third Mark in Downtown Miami

Construction continues to ascend on the Waldorf Astoria Hotel & Residences, a 100-story supertall skyscraper under development at 300 Biscayne Boulevard in Downtown Miami. The tower, which has now surpassed one-third of its full height, is being developed by Property Markets Group (PMG) and Greybrook Realty Partners, in partnership with Mohari Hospitality, S2 Development, and Hilton. Designed by Sieger Suarez Architects in collaboration with Carlos Ott, the 1,049-foot-tall structure will yield 387 private residences and 205 hotel rooms, marking a milestone as Florida’s first supertall and the tallest residential building south of New York City.
Recent aerial imagery reveals that the superstructure is beginning to make a noticeable impact on the Miami skyline. Formwork has progressed past the 35th floor, placing construction within the fourth offset cube of the tower’s total nine-cube composition. Decking is actively underway for level 36, while the perimeter safety netting system is being jumped from the levels below in tandem with the vertical progression. YIMBY’s previous update in March documented the structure at the 20th floor, suggesting an average cycle time of approximately 8 to 10 days per floor, though this serves more as a general benchmark than a fixed pace. Based on this progress, the tower’s height is estimated to be somewhere between 360 and 380 feet. For context, the Vizcayne twin-tower complex, located across the street to the south, rises 538 feet. The stacked presence of the design is now clearly taking shape, and the tower’s distinctive silhouette will only become more pronounced as additional sections of the curtain wall are installed in the coming months..................
