FAA Limit Height For Tall Buildings In Miami

The FAA has told Miami developers to limit the height of their buildings and disapproved of upcoming projects over 500 feet, according to the Daily Business Review.

Projects such as Auberge in Downtown Miami and One Brickell were "presumed to be a hazard to air navigation." The FAA suggested a height of 465 feet from 877 feet for Auberge and 449 feet from 646 for One Brickell. 

Florida East Coast Realty proposed tower at 1201 Brickell Bay Dr. has an FAA suggestion of 484 feet down from 995 feet. 

Developers have the option to request 60 days for the FAA to conduct further studies that would be open to public comment and take another 120 days, according to the SFBJ.

One River Point Approved By FAA

One River Point has been approved by the FAA, according to The Next Miami. The two towers will rise 928 feet above ground. Plans were submitted to the FAA in December 2014. 

Developer KAR Properties bought the One River Point land for 27.5 million in 2013 and also paid 33.1 million for the two lots behind the Mint and Ivy condos.

Sales for One River Point will begin September 10th.
