Elysee Miami Construction
The first glass has been installed on the 57 story Elysee in Edgewater as construction reaches the 19th floor.
A year ago, construction was just starting on the site and at the beginning of October, construction was just reaching the 8th floor.
The Arquitectonica designed building will have only 100 units and is expected to be completed in 2020.

TBT (November 14, 2014) - The landscape along South Miami Avenue has changed drastically prior to 2014 when Brickell City Centre was just empty, vacant land. The photos below show the progression of Brickell City Centre, including the East Hotel before it was eventually completed in 2016.
Swire Properties' Brickell City Centre is a massive construction project in the heart of Brickell. It's hard to get a sense of how big the project is until you stand on South Miami Ave. and see the construction on three full city blocks.
On what was once empty lots, are now large skyscrapers changing the Miami skyline.
Below are photos of Brickell City Centre facing East on South Miami Ave where construction on Hotel East, Reach Brickell City Centre, North Squared Condo, offices, wellness center and retail are being built. In the other direction facing West (not in the photos) is construction on Rise Brickell City Centre, offices and retail.
Brickell Flatiron Close To Top Off
Brickell Flatiron continues to rise to its final height of 736 feet as the luxury condominium is expected to top off next week December 15th after breaking ground March 2016.
When we looked at the project last month, the building was on the 62nd floor and a video was made showing a finished unit in the building.
Brickell Flatiron is being developed by CMC Group and designed by Luis Revuelta and is expected to be completed Summer 2019.

Caoba Miami Worldcenter
As construction continues on the nearby 60 story Paramount Miami Worldcenter, Caoba Miami Worldcenter is nearly completed and is scheduled to open soon.
With 450 rental units, the 43 story tower topped off at the beginning of 2018 and started going vertical in February 2017.

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.
