JDS Development Seeks General Site Development Plan Approval From County Planners For 81-Story Mixed-Use Supertall 888 Brickell
Quote:
Miami-Dade County’s Department of Regulatory and Economic Resources will consider the general site development plan resubmitted for 888, an 81-story supertall mixed-use skyscraper propped for 888 Brickell Avenue in the heart of Miami’s Brickell Financial District. Designed by Studio Sofield with ODP Architecture & Design as the architect of record and solely developed by Michael Stern’s JDS Development Group (JDS), the 1,048-foot-tall structure is planned to provide 1,178,568 square feet of space, including 259 residential units, 52,144 square feet of health/fitness, 38,727 square feet of food and beverage, and 273 parking spaces operated by a valet. The application is pursuant to sections 33C-15 and 33C-11 of the County Code of Ordinances for the property, filed on October 4, 2022.
The property is on the north side of Southeast 10th Street, just east of Brickell Avenue and a half block away from the Tenth Street Metromover Station. The site is approximately 22,568 square feet (0.51 acres) in size and is currently improved with a 7-story office building that was constructed in 1972. JDS is reportedly in contract to purchase the site from long-time owner Alphatur NV%La Primera led by Nelson and Mashud Mezerhane.
The floor count appears to have been narrowed down to 81, not including the rooftop. Although some filing documents indicate the structure reaches 1,049 feet, the elevation diagram shows the maximum height is 1,039 feet, or 1,048 feet above sea level. Due to the narrow dimensions of the site, mechanicals is located on levels 9, 16, 34, and 82 (rooftop).
Suggested public benefits include improvements to wayfinding, the pedestrian experience, bicycle parking options, transit access, and public art in the immediate area, extending to the Tenth Street Metromover Station. The project fully complies with the standards outlined in Sections 33C- 15 and 33C-11 of the County Code. JDS is requesting final approval for the current plans. Demolition permits will be required to raze the existing office building. A utility deal is not yet in the works to connect the building to the city’s water and sewer system. Ground breaking is projected to begin some time in 2023,with a projected top-out in 2024, and completion in 2026.
888, previously branded and referred to as Major, is no longer a partnership between JDS and Major Food Group (MFG), hence the change of name for the development. MFG departed from the joint venture in July, making JDS the sole developer, the firm behind The Brooklyn Tower and a part of 111 West 57th Street, aka The Steinway Tower, in New York City. Custom residences will come in one-to-four bedroom units and penthouses.
JDS has gathered an elite team of engineers and consulting firms to work on the project, including Desimone Consulting Engineers for structural engineering, MG Engineering for MEP engineering, SLS for code consulting, Kimley-Horn for civil engineering and landscape architecture, Lerch Bates for vertical transportation, Walker Parking for parking consulting, Socotec Consulting for enclosure/waterproofing consulting, Longman Lindsey for acoustic engineering, Aquadynamics Design Group Inc. for pool consulting, and Horton Lees Brodgen as the lighting designer. The general contractor has not been named.
