I love Miami, and I keep reading that it’s real estate market is the best in America. Thus, I was curious if there’s any news about this project or if it’s effectively dead.
I don't think Miami has a strong office market. All of the demand has been residential and hotel. Odd, considering Miami is one of the USA's best transit cities. Oko Group is building a tall office skyscraper so I expect that to be the only major office development this cycle.

With the office market, its why a lot of developments have been mixed used with a ratio of either condos/rentals and office (tends to be in range of 100-250k sq-ft on average), and retail. Condos/Rentals (market rate) are a bulk of newer developments.
Certain developments in the past have been purely office, but have since in the last 2 years been designed to include residential functionality to help chances of making financial sense.

Its not dead, but long term. Similar to certain developers putting towers on hold until the market is right, I think this will follow suit.
80-FLOOR ONE BRICKELL CITY CENTRE GETS FAA APPROVAL AT 1,049 FEET (AGAIN)
Quote:
The Federal Aviation Administration has once again granted approval for the 80-story One Brickell City Centre supertall tower to be built at 1,040 feet above ground, or 1,049 feet above sea level.
Developer Swire Properties has until December 2020 to break ground or the approval will expire. The developer can also apply for extensions, likely until 2022 at the latest.
A previous approval for the same height was applied for in 2013 and approved in 2015, but expired in 2018.
A second application was filed for in March 2018, following expiration of the first. Review took about 18 months and was granted on June 15.
Yeah a little too late on their part. Swire tends to be very risk focused, but I think sometimes, a little risk would do them good. Yeah its nice they are waiting for the right moment, but others are taking a stab at it, and making a profit. They can't be too too late to the game otherwise the party is over.

The right moment is going to a be a long, long time from now.
Swire Properties has once again submitted an application to the Federal Aviation Administration to build the 80-story One Brickell City Centre supertall tower.
According to the March 1 application, One Brickell City Centre is planned to rise 1,040 feet above ground, or 1,049 feet above sea level.
This FAA has approved the project twice before in 2015 and 2018, but the agency’s approval order expires if construction doesn’t get underway within a certain timeframe. The 2018 approval is set to expire in June 2022, even after an extension was granted.
In 2018, Swire president Kieran Bowers said designing the project was complicated and the timing for it was not yet right. Miami’s real estate market has strengthened significantly since that time, but Hong Kong-based Swire’s stock price is lower than it was then.
Miami Office Boom Is Pushing Deeper Into Posh Residential Areas

New York developers are among those seeking a slice of the action.
Manhattan-based L&L Holding Co. has teamed up with Carpe Real Estate Partners to build a mixed-use complex in Miami’s Wynwood Arts District.
Related Cos., the firm behind New York’s Hudson Yards, is planning its first office project in the city, a tower in the Brickell neighborhood set to rise more than 1,000 feet (305 meters). The developer already has properties in West Palm Beach that have attracted the likes of Goldman Sachs Group Inc. and Point72 Asset Management.
“The momentum in the Miami office market is extraordinary,” Related Chairman Stephen Ross said in a statement. “The large national firms we work with across the country are actively seeking the world-class office product we’re known for delivering.”
Previously, the maximum floorplate was 30,000 square feet. Under the proposal, the maximum floorplate will range from 40,000 to 60,000 square feet:
In a One BCC Signature Office design, the following additional tower flexibilities may be permitted by process of SAP Permit, so long as the Building does not exceed 2,850,000 square feet of total Floor Area:
•40,000 square feet maximum Floorplate size for Office and Commercial Uses with a maximum length of 250 feet, on all tower Stories except:
60,000 square feet maximum Floorplate size for Office Uses for the first 100 feet of the tower above the maximum Height of the Pedestal, with a maximum Floorplate length of 350 feet.
Other changes include the possibility of an above grade pedestrian connection over the Metromover station, with no setback and encroaching into the right-of-way. There are also changes to the ground level parking and loading guidelines.
Miami’s Planning Department is recommending approval of the proposed changes. The Planning, Zoning & Appeals Board hearing is scheduled for June 1.
Construction for One Brickell City Centre is slated to start in 2023. The firms are already in discussions with potential technology and finance tenants from places such as California, New York, the Midwest and Northeast, Swire President Kieran Bowers said.
