Demolition Of The Oldest Bar In Miami - Tobacco Road
TBT (November 19, 2014) - 4 years ago this month Tobacco Road was demolished after 102 years of history. We previously showed a photo tour of the building before it was torn down and a photo tour of the building as it was being stripped inside. After the lot sat empty for years, a pizza place recently opened on the site and the land will eventually be part of the the Brickell City Centre expansion with a 54 story condo.
Over the past 10 plus days, demolition has taken place on the 102 year old Tobacco Road. The demolition crew was Thunder Demolition with Group 3 Contractors.
The bar held the first liquor license in Miami and now debris from the building is all that remains on the site.
During the demolition, the team from Thunder Demolition was able to save the original Dade-County Pine from the building. Employees from Tobacco Road plan on using the original wood to make coasters, cutting boards and tables to preserve the history of the original location. General Manager Joel Rivera and employees still need to raise $50,000 and are doing this until December 2 through Kickstarter. They need any donations possible to help move into a new location across the lot.
Photos of bar during operation can be seen here. A video of the bar during operation can be seen here. Photos of the bar right before demolition and all the items removed can be seen here.
L'Atelier Miami Beach
L'Atelier Miami Beach is almost completed is expected to open by the end of 2018.
The 18 story luxury condominium on Collins Avenue topped off a year ago, after starting construction in September 2016.
The front of L’Atelier is the renovated three story façade of the Golden Sands Hotel, which was originally built in 1951.
L’Atelier Miami Beach was designed by Luis Revuelta and developed by SMG Development and W Capital Group.

One Thousand Museum
Both cranes have been removed from the East and West side of the building of One Thousand Museum, along with all of the hoists. This gives the building the cleanest look at the exoskeleton surrounding the tower without any obstructions in the way.
Since we last looked in August, the cladding is almost installed around the parking levels at the base of the tower. The glass fiber reinforced concrete is nearly placed on most of the exoskeleton, which started to be installed in November 2017 when the tower reached the 57th floor.
The Zaha Hadid design tower topped off in February of this year at 709 feet after starting to go vertical in August 2015.

Glass 120 Ocean In The South of Fifth District
TBT (October 29, 2014) - 4 years ago the 18 story Glass, developed by Terra Group, was about to top off in South Beach. After beginning construction in August 2013, the Rene Gonzalez designed building eventually opened in November 2015.
The last time we checked in on Terra Group's Glass 120 Ocean project they were starting to put on the 11th floor. Now they are working on the 17th floor of the 18 floor condo.
Residents will be able to see views of the ocean, Miami and South Beach.
Construction is expected to be completed by early 2015.
Inside Tobacco Road Before Demolition
TBT (November 18, 2014) - After the final call and closing of Tobacco Road on October 25, 2014 after 102 years, demolition of the inside of the building began shortly after. Many of the memorabilia in the bar, including the neon sign, dade county pine wood used on the bar, many of the posters and signs were saved before the building eventually was torn down.
On October 25, 2014, Tobacco Road had its final last call and closed its location at 626 South Miami Avenue for good after 102 years.
Shortly after, employees began removing items from the bar such as framed photos, the 40 foot bar and the famous neon sign into storage.
General Manager of Tobacco Road, Joel Rivera, is trying to relocate Tobacco Road across the lot into a new space, but needs $50,000 to do this. Rivera and employees are trying to raise the money through kickstarter and have only December 2 to do this. Any money donated will help save Tobacco Road and keep the memories going in a new location.
Below are photos of Tobacco Road before demolition began and after items were removed from the bar.
