Renderings Show 50+ Floor Towers At Former Burdines In Downtown Miami
Quote:
The owner of the former Burdines in downtown Miami has uploaded renderings that appear to show multiple towers on the property.
Renderings of a retail project were first spotted inside the building by Ryan RC Rea.
The name of the project is 22 East Flagler.
According to a brochure posted on Loopnet, owner Aetna Realty “has invested in a new vision for this exemplary project which could involve building two adjacent 50-story or 55-story towers on either side of the building.”
“The project would be mixed-use with retail, office, hotel, and residences bringing together modern and cutting-edge design.”
Marketing appears to be underway for the existing space, with office and retail uses planned.
I believe Liquid Lofts is dead essentially although it wouldn't be unreasonable that the property sees action in time. The zoning is favorable, if say another developer comes by and has say a shovel ready project situation.
As with 22 East Flagler, or the same parcel which had a twin super tall proposed at one point, these parcels sit, and if bought up in time or say they go on the market, something different can always rise. I think the same will happen with the Liquid Lofts parcel (just not the same design).
