Designs have been unveiled for 619 Brickell, a landmark residential tower set to rise in the heart of Miami. Developed by 13th Floor Investments and Key International, the 75-storey waterfront development sits beside Brickell Park and will feature 296 residences with sweeping views across Biscayne Bay. Drawing inspiration from Miami’s iconic Art Deco heritage, the tower is distinguished by its elegant twisting form, creating a striking addition to the city’s skyline. Designed by Foster + Partners in collaboration with Sieger Suarez, 619 Brickell will also become Miami’s first residential tower to offer amenities curated by Nobu Hospitality, blending world-class architecture with luxury hospitality.
Patrick Campbell, Head, Studio, Foster + Partners, said: “Capturing the energetic spirit of Brickell, our scheme is stitched into the surrounding fabric of the local community. The tower’s twisting form responds to its waterfront location, maximizing natural light within the apartments and generating panoramic views of the ocean, Biscayne Bay, and Brickell Key.”
Rob Harrison, Senior Partner, Foster + Partners, said: “The building’s distinctive architectural form and wellness-driven amenities, curated by Nobu Hospitality, will create a world-class residential destination in one of Miami’s most vibrant neighborhoods.”

are integral to the scheme’s community ethos.
The tower’s apartments are shaped by its dynamic twisting form, with their varying layouts balancing size, balcony space, and ocean views from all master bedrooms and living rooms. A continuous balcony ribbon emphasizes the building’s unique shape and reinforces a sense of movement. The apartments are arranged in five community clusters, with residential amenities, duplex penthouses, townhouse residences, and sky villas located between them. At the base of the tower, an elevated residents’ arrival is framed by water features and lush landscaping, with a private lounge overlooking Brickell Key. A separate visitor entrance leads to Nobu’s bar and restaurant terrace, offering waterfront views of the boardwalk and Brickell Key.
The scheme offers an incredible collection of tailored residential amenities, a wellness spa and elevated fitness center with views across the water, and a rooftop garden with a swimming pool and courts for padel and pickleball. Landscaped areas and outdoor lounges provide a tranquil escape in the heart of the city, while spaces for congregating and celebration are integral to the scheme’s community ethos.
