Total Demolition Permit Issued For One Bayfront Plaza Supertall Site

Miami’s Building Department issued a total demolition permit for the One Bayfront Plaza site yesterday.

The permit was approved on March 27. It remained approved but unissued until June 25..

A 19-story office building occupying a full city block in the heart of downtown Miami is being demolished to make way for a supertall tower.

Demolition is estimated to take between 9 months and a year.

The owner of the property is planning a landmark 1,049-foot supertall tower on the site, with offices, a convention hotel, residences, and a shopping mall.

Why so slow to demolish this? Obviously this is in the middle of the city, but surely it can be done faster than this, no? the small office tower being demolished @ 1428 brickell is moving very fast.

IKR, the Everglades Hotel took seconds to demolish by implosion, and should have been restored instead. It would have been a great Waldorf Astoria, with the next block north of course being the residences being constructed today.

What a shame they didn’t get to sue the “artists” responsible for that disgusting graffiti.

The graffiti was done on purpose for Art Basel.

Only the same event that calls a banana duct taped to a wall “art” could call locust vandal markings the same.

I emailed the mayor complaining about the graffiti because it leads to more graffiti. Case in point within a couple of days the office building across the street got tagged. I ended up speaking with him after my follow up email and he told me it’s not tolerated blah blah blah. It’s also why the building owner was being fined until the graffiti was removed.

Yes, I’m aware, but it was completely unauthorized.

I know we are the “6th Borough”. but we really need to stop referencing Manhattan.
We are Miamians and strong – so much better with our breezes.

NYC who?? Stop comparing them to us, we’re vastly different and have different cultures/values than them.

If it’s so much better than NYC, why chose a moniker like “Wall Street South?”
