848 Brickell: A New Landmark in Miami’s Financial District

Developers for 848 Brickell have taken a significant step towards reshaping Miami’s skyline with their latest project. Key International and Sterling Bay filed for FAA permits on June 27, 2024, for this 51-story Class A office and retail tower in Miami’s Brickell neighborhood. Designed by the renowned Skidmore, Owings & Merrill (SOM), the structure is set to reach an impressive height of 764 feet above ground, or 775 feet above mean sea level. As of now, the permit status is “work in progress.”

848 Brickell promises to be a major addition to Miami’s Financial District, providing over 750,000 square feet of premium office space and 7,500 square feet of ground-floor retail. Additionally, it will include on-site parking facilities for more than 1,000 vehicles. Catering to modern business needs, the tower will feature tech-enabled conference facilities, a luxury fitness center, an expansive outdoor terrace, padel tennis courts, and private open-air lounges.

Strategically located at 848 Brickell Avenue, the tower will offer stunning views of the ocean and Brickell Avenue. Its prime location ensures quick access to top dining, retail, and entertainment spots, making it a premier business hub in Miami.

Key International, under the leadership of Diego and Inigo Ardid, chose Sterling Bay for its expertise in developing world-class office spaces. Sterling Bay’s impressive portfolio includes creative office spaces for major corporations like Google and McDonald’s. This collaboration aims to create a next-generation workspace that meets the evolving needs of modern businesses and professionals in South Florida.

The FAA permit applications signify a major milestone for 848 Brickell, underscoring ongoing efforts to transform downtown Miami with new residential, commercial, and office projects. This development is poised to play a crucial role in the continued growth and modernization of the area.
