Construction is rising rapidly on Downtown 1st, a 57-story mixed-use building in Downtown Miami‘s Central Business District.
Designed and developed by the Melo Group, the project consists of approximately 743,073 square feet of new construction including nearly 500,000 square feet of residential space across 560 dwelling units, 12,930 square feet of office space, 2,925 square feet of ground floor retail, and 453-vehicle parking garage. The building is addressed as 30 Southwest 1st Street, and will become Melo’s tallest rental skyscraper.
Aerial photographs taken by Aaron DeMayo show the rising reinforced concrete superstructure making it’s way up to the final levels of the podium before finally setting back and giving way to the residential levels. We can expect the tower to continue to ascend into the skyline throughout the rest of this year and top out some time during the first half of 2022. Considering the smaller-sized concrete slabs expected after the setback, the residential levels should be fully formed at a faster pace in comparison to the podium levels. Roughly 10 stories have been formed with the 11 floor in progress, and the concrete core a few levels ahead seen peaking out of the podium. Rental apartments are planned to come in one-bedroom, two-bedroom and three-bedroom layouts, with several penthouses occupying the top two floors. Units will range from 653 square feet for the smallest one-bedroom, to 1,066 square feet for three-bedrooms. Penthouse units will range somewhere near 1,200 square feet. Melo Group’s Downtown 1st is expected to reach completion some time during the 4th quarter of 2022 if not early 2023.
