Insight

Miami is now enjoying its greatest high-rise construction boom in history, according to our new list of the tallest buildings under construction in the city.

There have never been as many 500 foot towers under construction in Miami as there are this year. For the first time ever, all 22 towers on this year’s list of under-construction buildings surpassed the 500 foot mark.This year will also mark the first supertall ever to begin construction in Miami, with the Waldorf Astoria set to break ground imminently.

The construction boom doesn’t stop there: like last year, there are dozens of construction projects in places like Wynwood, Midtown and Edgewater that are simply not tall enough to make the list. Those relatively smaller projects are however still bringing thousands of apartments to Miami’s urban core.

Even many taller construction projects didn’t make the cut. Around half of the towers on last year’s tallest construction project list were also edged off by even taller towers this year.Here are the 22 tallest Miami towers that are either currently under construction at the start of 2022, or expected to break ground this year (we’ve only included those that are nearly certain to begin):

1. The Waldorf Astoria Hotel and Residences Miami (100 stories, 1,040 feet)

Site work for this tower just got underway last week, after the developers announced they had surpassed the 72% sold mark. An official groundbreaking is set for this quarter. It will become the the tallest all-residential building in Miami and south of New York.

2. Okan Tower (70 stories, 902 feet)

Okan relaunched sales in October 2021. In November, the developers told The Next Miami that they plan a June 2022 groundbreaking, and reiterated that timeline at a public event last month. In December, they reactivated a construction permit that had been filed in 2019.
