History

Capital at Brickell

Capital at Brickell was a proposed complex of two skyscrapers. The project was cancelled due to financial reasons caused by the Great Recession. The complex was to consist of two towers made up of residential, office, a hotel and retail, "Capital at Brickell Tower I" and "Capital at Brickell Tower II." Tower II will be the taller one, rising to a height of . Tower I was to be tall, and will be located to the south of Tower II. Tower I was to be 53 floors and Tower II was to be 57 floors. Although not the tallest buildings proposed during the first Miami " Manhattanization wave" from 2006-2008, the towers were planned to be some of the more striking architecturally, and would have surpassed the Four Seasons Hotel Miami as the city's tallest building, but not the Panorama Tower completed in 2017. Both towers were designed to be reminiscent of the Chrysler Building in New York City. The tops of the buildings were especially similar, with a "crown" at the top of each building and a similar spire. The towers were part of the recent push to build more skyscrapers in the western side of the Brickell neighborhood, which does not border Biscayne Bay as does most of Downtown. The architect of the complex was Fullerton-Diaz Architects, Inc. The developer was Cabi Developers, led by VP of Development Miroslav "Misha" Mladenovic. In July 2011, two developers began competing for the lot.

and that it could be largely office space, though it would be mixed-use. They are seeking EB-5 funding, similar to Panorama Tower, to cover part of the expected $875 million cost.
