Cool. Not sure about the pointy spikes, but I'm really liking the Ode to Chrysler motif on top in the 4th picture.

^ yes the Chrysler influence is certainly there. This is one of the better residentials going up in the city.

Can't wait to see this project completed! It will really add signature buildings to the south end of the skyline.

My favorite of the new Miami buildings (just about everyone's favorite in fact). Too bad they got chopped down though, they were originally to be in the high 700's somewhere...gotta love the FAA.

This is one of my favorite buildings to come out of the boom, it's a decent height, not that tall, but the design is amazing.

That's Inifinity 1, not Capital. Capitol Towers is still a hole in the ground.
