Capital at Brickell

Capital at Brickell is a proposed complex of two skyscrapers in the Brickell neighborhood of Miami, Florida, United States. The site is located in Downtown's Brickell Financial District on South Miami Avenue near 12th Street. The complex consists of two towers made up of residential, office, a hotel and retail, Capital at Brickell Tower I and Capital at Brickell Tower II. Tower II will be the taller one, rising to a height of 806 feet (246 m). Tower I will be 607 feet (185 m) tall, and will be located to the south of Tower II. Tower I will be 53 floors and Tower II will have 57 floors. Although not the tallest buildings currently under construction or approved in Miami, which experienced a "Manhattanization wave" from 2006-2008, the towers are planned to be some of the more striking architecturally. Both towers will be reminiscent of the Chrysler Building in New York City. The tops of the buildings will be especially similar, with the "crown" at the top of each builidng and a similar spire. The towers are part of the recent push to build more skyscrapers in the West Brickell area of Miami, which does not border Biscayne Bay as does most of Downtown. The architect of the complex is Fullerton-Diaz Architects, Inc. The developer is Cabi Developers, led by VP of Development Miroslav "Misha" Mladenovic. In July 2011, two developers began competing for the lot.[1]
