The Brickell district of Miami has changed significantly since the 1980s when it was comprised mostly of financial buildings and low rise apartment buildings.

In the early 2000s, condos started popping up in the area and along Brickell Avenue. The recession hit in 2008 and building came to a halt in Miami. It wasn't until 2012 when Brickell City Centre started construction that the market picked up and more condos were added to the growing Miami skyline. In 2012, there were many empty lots scattered around Brickell. Those lots are now filled with condos such as Brickell City Centre, Brickell Heights, SLS Lux, SLS Brickell, My Brickell, 1100 Millecento, Bond at Brickell, Panorama Tower, 1010 Brickell, Brickell Flatiron and Solitair Brickell.

The Brickell skyline will only continue to change in the future with proposed condos in the works such as One Brickell, Edge on Brickell, 830 Brickell, Villa Magna and One Brickell City Centre.

Not only is Brickell experiencing a change, but also West Brickell, which is located West of the Metrorail tracks.

Miami Riverside Center

Nexus Riverside Central

Last month, two bids were submitted for Miami Riverside Center from Adler Group and Panther Capital. One of plans by Adler Group has been revealed by The Next Miami.

Adler Group wants to tear down the existing Riverside Center and replace it with apartment towers called Nexus Riverside Central. Nexus Riverside Central would consist of two 36 story rental towers with 900 units, 150 hotel rooms and 20,000 square feet of retail/restaurant space. As part of the deal, the City of Miami would get a 3% revenue over a 90 year lease.

Adler Group would also combine the two apartment towers with land they purchased next to Riverside Center in July 2015 to build Riverside Tower.

As part of the proposal, Adler Group would help the City of Miami finance a new office building at 375,000 square feet. Locations include next to Marlins Park and near the Lyric Theater in Overtown.
