The approval of Tower 36, a new lifestyle office tower adjacent to Miami’s Design District and designed by KPF, has been given by the Miami Urban Development Review Board. Located at Miami’s northern gateway to the high-rise district, the approved 193.6 meter building will enjoy primacy of place with sweeping views toward Biscayne Bay, Miami Beach, and the Atlantic Ocean beyond. The project sets the bar for the new era of highly amenitized, ultra-luxury Class-A office towers driven by occupant wellness, integrated landscaping, and access to outdoor space. 

A defining architectural feature of the tapered tower is its glass façade, which reveals terraces on all office floors arranged in a configuration that conveys a sense of movement across the building. Detailed with light bronze soffit accents, these outdoor spaces provide tenants with enhanced views and a direct connection to their surroundings. To complement the office floors above, the building’s podium includes retail space on the ground floor, bicycle and car parking for tenants, and a premium restaurant experience on its landscaped roof. In addition, a multi-story office amenity space features equally striking terraces facing both the bay and Downtown. A departure from the strict, angled corners of nearby buildings, the podium design favors gentle curves throughout.
