I moved one week before Hurricane Irma and this is ridiculous. I hope all these buildings will keep people inside becuae traffic is already insane. Although I do love seeing things go up and seeing nice buildings. I am concerned about the influx of people. Provided thart these buildings fill up. Or only the rich that want more homes and travel often will be the ones owning.
I remember looking down from the baclony of an area blocked off for the Aston-Martin Residences. I couldn't believe they were attempting to fit an 820 foot building in such a small area adjacent to the water. The finished project is the most beautiful building in all of downtown Miami. I enjoy walking through downtown and entering all the new buildings and work my way to the top floors and various amenities.
My family had a pineapple farm on Elliott’s Key in the 1800’s. They built FILERS HARDWARE AND GENERAL STORE on Lemon Avenue in 1890 and would travel to Coconut Grove in their one horse carriage via rocky road later known as Biscayne Blvd. They would sail down to Elliotts Key to pick up fruit and deliver goods to the other farms twice a month. They were kinda the AMAZON of their time. I have photos of their store and the sailing trips all aromatic Biscayne Bay and the Florida Keys. Hoping the Continental Shelf is strong enough to support all this weight in skyscrapers.
That’s a huge problem with the city sinking. However it would take a 70-100 years for the system to reach critical point. Till then the option is to reinforce the shoreline and dig deeper foundations.
Yeah. I never could have imagined that it would be possible to build 900 to 1400 foot skyscrapers on Brickell Ave and Biscayne Blvd. We already have an 85-story skyscraper; and building has started for 2 skyscrapers that will be 90 and 100 floors. How they built the Aston-Martin Residences on limited space along the water is amazing. The one building that is probably the most worrisome is the One Island Drive skyscraper project on Brickell Key. How do they pull this off on a man-made island? I guess these brilliant engineers know what they're doing. My biggest fear is what a CAT 4 or 5 Hurricane can do to our beautiful downtown area. We'll soon have the best skyline in the Western Hemisphere. From the Rickenbacker Causeway, it will be better than NYC - in my opinion.
Building over 400m is not only unnecessary and a waste of money, but it probably isn’t possible in Florida at all. The only places that build over 400m are cities that are trying to prove something, that’s why only developing countries do that anymore and not developed ones. The US has nothing to prove by building over 400m. It only makes sense in really big and dense cities like NYC or Chicago to do that.
@@ajgerbi well said. Also after a certain height limit (> 300m) the utility of icing or working that high decreases exponentially as the cost of utilities increases along with transportation. That’s why the really tall towers are mostly prestige projects or high class residences like the billionaires row in NYC.
I’m an architect here in Miami. It’s all about Water pumps and the strongest building code in the United States! We are well prepared for any hurricane coming our way
The Comcast Technology Center Tower in Philadelphia, at 1,121 feet, is the tallest building in the US outside of New York City or Chicago, and will remain as the tallest building south of NYC, taller than Miami's TWA. Do better research.
Great video but it’s tough to listen to the narrator. It sounds like he’s talking with clenched teeth. Like he’s fuming mad about something. Beyond annoying
I lived here since 2011, the change has been insane in the last decade

I moved here in 2007 and my god, has it changed. In some ways for the worse (traffic and inflation) but in many ways for the better.
Everyone is moving to Miami. Insane

You forgot to list one brickell city center which will be the tallest commercial tower in Florida.
MY MIAMI IS TRULY THE STAR TREK CITY OF THE FUTURE!
Imagine being in the penthouse of one of these things in a strong hurricane.
Thank you for sharing this information about Miami..
What keeps the cubes in the Waldorf from sliding
WOW. Had no idea. Excellent video.

Plz make a video of building officially under construction! Thanks
you forgot One Bayfront
Awwwmazing city...💠💠💠
DISNEY TALKS FUTURE MIAMI DOES THE FUTURE!
Those towers are underway
Matatan.🤔.
Ribirin.👍.
I wish Miami people will figure out how to built taller over 400m
Building over 400m is not only unnecessary and a waste of money, but it probably isn’t possible in Florida at all. The only places that build over 400m are cities that are trying to prove something, that’s why only developing countries do that anymore and not developed ones.

Cool
Miami is becoming a city for the have’s. The working class don’t stand a chance in the city. Rent in downtown Miami bare minimum is probably $3,500
Building skyscraper in sinking city in hurricane alley???
I’m an architect here in Miami. It’s all about Water pumps and the strongest building code in the United States! We are well prepared for any hurricane coming our way
@@Architect98 Just like the headquarters of Burger King was for Hurricane Andrew? Sea level rise is a permanent storm surge.
@@Architect98 Will the skyscrapers be able to withstand Cat 5 hurricane winds and rain? Far too many skyscrapers are made out of glass.
Must be so jealous because your city look like shit!! 😂
Hurricanes people
Tallest building of New York City….y’all seriously forgot Philly and Atlanta huh?
Philadelphia, yes.
Atlanta, no. The tallest building in the city is 1,023 feet.
The Comcast Technology Center Tower in Philadelphia, at 1,121 feet, is the tallest building in the US outside of New York City or Chicago, and will remain as the tallest building south of NYC, taller than Miami's TWA. Do better research.
He said tallest residential building south of NYC. Do better listening.
It's probably because Philadelphia's skyline is so nondescript. No one cares.
The comcast tower is an ugly building compared to these new towers...lmao!!
Miami couldn't add an uglier skyscraper if they tried to
Do you mean those boring boxes towers in most cities in America?!...at least Miami doing something new and out of the box. 😅
That 1000+ ft. tower is the ugliest skyscraper I have ever seen.
Better than those windowless brick building in Manhattan...yuck!!
They can't keep a parking garage standing how they going to build that in a swamp?

Sounds like AI actually
