50 Biscayne Tower
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
50 Biscayne Tower is a skyscraper in downtown Miami, Florida. It is currently under construction, although almost complete. It has recently been topped off, meaning that it has reached its final height. The building is expected to open sometime during 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. When completed, it will be 554 ft (169 m) tall with 55 floors. The building will feature retail and hotel rooms on floors one through nine, and floors eleven through 55 will be residential condominium units. The tenth floor will consist of a restaurant and public observation deck area. Ground was broken on the building in June 2005.
