A towering new presence is set to dominate the Brickell skyline, at least temporarily. A developer has filed plans with the FAA to erect two construction cranes reaching an impressive 652 feet above ground level. These colossal structures will support the development of two significant residential buildings near Brickell City Centre.
Key Takeaways
- Two new residential buildings are under construction at 120 SW 8th Street.
- The project will feature a total of 803 residential units.
- Construction cranes will reach a maximum height of 652 feet.
- Projected completion is slated for 2028.
Ambitious Residential Development
The cranes will be instrumental in the construction of two distinct towers: One Twenty Brickell Residences, comprising 266 condominium units, and Sentral Brickell, which will offer 537 multifamily residential units. Together, these buildings will add 803 new homes to the bustling Brickell neighborhood. The permanent structures are planned to stand at 37 and 41 stories, sharing a common podium.
Project Financing and Timeline
Developer PMG has secured substantial financial backing for this ambitious project, obtaining $413 million in construction financing earlier this year. A groundbreaking ceremony has already taken place, signaling the commencement of this significant development. The estimated schedule for the cranes’ operation begins on December 1, 2025, with the overall project completion anticipated in 2028.
