Civica Center Phase II Receives FAA Approval

Civica Center Phase II, a 27-story residential skyscraper planned for construction at 1050 Northwest 14th Street in Miami's Allapattah district, has received Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) approval. The project is being developed by Boston-based The Congress Group and Taurus Investment Holdings, LLC. Kimley-Horn is the civil engineer and landscape architect for the 301-foot-tall building that was created by CUBE3 Architects.
The structure will be able to rise 310 feet above mean sea level or 301 feet above ground level thanks to the building permissions that were acquired. The FAA claims that, under certain circumstances, the planned structure won't violate obstruction rules and won't be dangerous for air navigation.
The Civica Center Phase II designs, which were initially intended to be a 22-story office tower, underwent significant revisions after being submitted to Miami's Urban Development Review Board in December 2022. The original plan was for an office tower with a generous 731,472 square feet of space to be built in place of an existing surface-level parking lot behind the first phase. But the developers adjusted their strategy in reaction to market developments and Miami's rising demand for residential real estate.
According to the updated Civica Center Phase II plans, there will be 342 residential units, with floor designs ranging from small studio apartments to roomy two-bedroom homes with 552 to 1,240 square feet. Additionally, the construction will include seven parking levels with room for up to 584 vehicles. The design of the 27-story tower features a tasteful blending of white stucco, glass, and architectural components embellished with striking gold alucobond panels. The location of the site is convenient; it is bounded to the north by Northwest 14th Street, to the south by State Road 836, to the east by Northwest 10th Avenue, and to the west by Northwest Highland Road.
