Vertical construction is now underway at the 44-story Lofty Brickell tower, according to photos by Ryan RC Rea.
The photos show that building columns’ are now rising out of the ground, with cranes in place.
The cranes were approved by the FAA in July for heights of 650 feet above ground, or 653 feet above sea level.
Lofty Brickell is planned to include 364 residential units allowing short-term rentals.
The permanent height of the tower is planned at 574 feet above ground, or 579 feet above sea level, according to a previous FAA approval.
Newgard is the developer, with Arquitectonica the architect.
