Home » Biggest projects » Florida: Construction Underway for Waldorf Astoria Residences in Miami, the City’s Tallest Building

Construction of 100 storey Waldorf Astoria Residences Miami for Waldorf Astoria Hotels & Resorts, a luxury hotel and resort brand of Hilton Worldwide, formerly known as The Waldorf-Astoria Collection is currently underway at 300 Biscayne Boulevard in Downtown Miami.

Designed by Sieger Suarez Architects, a Miami based firm specializing in the diversified field of luxury high-rise residential design and development, together with Uruguayan architect Carlos Ott, the Waldorf Astoria will stand at a height of 1,049 feet (319.7 m) making it the tallest skyscraper in the coastal metropolis located in Miami-Dade County in southeastern Florida.

It is made up of nine offset cubes that will highlight the structure’s suspension and height, and it will house a five-star hotel as well as private residences, featuring one-, two-, three-, and four-bedroom suites that are 11 feet (3.4 meters) tall at their tallest point. Bamo, a San Francisco-based interior design firm, has been commissioned to create the interiors.

Both the hotel and the private residences will be managed by Hilton Management Services.

The tower’s base will house a 10-story parking structure, while the upper cubes will comprise many amenities, including restaurants, meeting rooms, a residents-only lobby, a resort-style pool and cabana, and a full spa and fitness centre.

According to the developer, if completed on time in 2026, the edifice whose height is above the 300-metre mark that defines a skyscraper as a supertall will also be the first supertall skyscraper in Miami.

“Waldorf Astoria Miami looks forward to anchoring a new era for this magical city as Florida’s first supertall tower as well as the tallest residential tower in the south of New York,” said PMG.

The permits for the structure have already been filed, according to the developers, “with approvals imminent.”  Construction is set to break ground this year and complete in 2026.
