Photo Tour of Axis – Brickell Condo

July 16, 2008

I had the opportunity to tour Axis last Tuesday morning with a client.  I brought my digital camera with me and had the chance to snap off a bunch of pictures of the common areas at Axis as well as a few model units. Axis has a large amenity level which includes a resort-style pool, separate lap pool, hot tub, audio/video room, steam room, barbecue grill, bar lounge area, billiards tables, various seating areas with flat-screen TVs and a fitness center. I tried to shoot most of the amenities at Axis but wasn’t able to get quite everything.

The following is a shot of the seating area in the lobby of the South Tower at Axis.

Here you’ll find the resort-style pool at Axis.

Here’s an aerial shot of the resort-style pool at Axis from one of the balconies.  I wasn’t able to get a shot of the lap pool.

Here’s the hot tub at Axis.

As I mentioned, I was able to also tour a few of the model condo units at Axis.  I was told that all of the kitchen appliances and cabinetry are standard except the Penthouse condos.  The Penthouse condos come with upgraded Viking appliances.

Here’s one of the fully decorated model units that I saw at Axis.

Here’s a corner 2 bedroom condo at Axis which faces northwest.  If you are interested in a north facing unit then you’ll likely want to clear the Camden Brickell development directly across the street.  I believe Camden Brickell has about 16 floors.

The bathrooms were pretty nice.  This is a shot of the master bath in a 2 bedroom unit.  The 1 bedroom units have only one sink in the bathroom though.

The master bedroom was quite spacious in this 2 bedroom condo at Axis.

The closet in the master bedroom was also quite spacious.

That concludes my photo tour of Axis.  Overall, I was pleased with the building and units given the price range for condos at Axis.  I definitely wouldn’t categorize it as a high-quality building but one shouldn’t expect that given the price point.  Axis is a great option for a young professional working in the Financial District who wants to be in a brand new building but wants to be towards the lower end of the spectrum on price.  I think the quality of the building and units is most comparable to Plaza on Brickell, although I do prefer Plaza on Brickell minus the parking woes there.  Compare the pricing of both condo developments by checking the available listings of both below.
