Epic-Dupont Complex
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Epic/Dupont Complex is an urban skyscraper complex in Miami, Florida. Part of the complex is currently under construction while part of it is planned. The planned portion has recently been approved by the City of Miami and the Federal Aviation Administration, and construction has begun as well on the Epic portion of the complex. Dupont is expected to break ground in the spring of 2007. Construction is expected to be complete in mid 2008. The complex contains two towers: the Epic Tower and the Dupont Tower. The taller of the two, Dupont Tower, will be 609 ft (186 m) tall, and have 60 floors. It will be the second phase of the construction. The Epic Tower, which is currently under construction, will be 500 ft (152 m) tall and will have 48 floors. The complex will be located on the north bank of the Miami River in downtown's Central Business District. It is bordered by Biscayne Boulevard Way on the west, Southeast 2nd Street to the north, the Miami River to the south, and Southeast 5th Avenue to the east. The architect of the complex is Revuelta Vega Leon. The Dupont Tower will be named after the Alfred I. DuPont Building, a National Historic Building from the 1930s that is also in Miami.
