50 Biscayne Tower is a skyscraper in downtown Miami, Florida. The building was completed in 2007. The tower is located on Biscayne Boulevard between Flagler Street and Northeast First Street in northeastern Downtown, and forms part of the Biscayne Wall, a series of skyscrapers visible from Biscayne Bay along the west side of Biscayne Boulevard. The tower is 554 ft (169 m) tall with 55 floors and features retail and hotel rooms on floors one through nine, and floors eleven through 55, residential condominium units. The tenth floor consists of a restaurant and public observation deck area. Ground was broken on the building in June 2005. Its site was the home of the McAllister Hotel, considered by many, to be Miami's first real skyscraper.
