Developer Crescent Heights has submitted plans to build a giant mixed-use complex next to downtown Miami’s under-construction Signature Bridge.

Rafael Viñoly is designing the new towers in the shape of an “S."

The project is currently known as 1370 NE 2nd Avenue. It is proposed to include 1,441 residential units, with amenities spread over five floors. It will include offices and an auditorium for The School Board of Miami-Dade County (totaling around 9,290 square meters). It will also include offices for Crescent Heights (1,827 square meters). Ground floor commercial and nine levels of parking will also be folded into the project. 

The towers will top off at 43 stories, or 197.8 meters (649 feet)—the maximum permitted by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) in the area.

Plans hint that the residential units could be either rental apartments or condos. A ground floor space is listed as a leasing/management office. Amenities will include a bowling alley, indoor basketball court, indoor lap pool, and indoor running track. The proposal also shows that three levels of parking will be open to the public, with the remaining six restricted.
