If you have walked or driven through Brickell lately, the cranes tell the story. Miami’s financial district keeps adding to its skyline, and 2026 is bringing several headline projects closer to reality. Here’s a friendly rundown of what is taking shape, along with what each one signals for anyone thinking about buying or renting in the area.
One Brickell Riverfront
One of the most watched additions sits along the Miami River at 99 SW Seventh Street, where developers Newgard Group and Two Roads Development topped off two condominium towers on January 16, 2026. The twin buildings, designed by Arquitectonica, share a single podium.
The first tower, LOFTY Brickell, rises 44 stories with 362 fully furnished residences, from studios to penthouses. The second, The Standard Residences Brickell, reaches 46 stories with 422 units. Both were reported to be running several months ahead of schedule, with delivery anticipated in August 2027. For buyers who like a turnkey, furnished option close to the water, this is a project worth following.
Mercedes-Benz Places
A short distance away, the Mercedes-Benz Places development continues to climb. The first phase went vertical in 2025, and a second tower has since broken ground as work accelerates. The full project is planned as a mixed-use complex of more than 2.5 million square feet, blending hundreds of residences with hotel rooms, office space, wellness amenities, and ground-floor retail, with occupancy targeted for 2027.
Branded developments like this one tend to draw attention well beyond Brickell, and they often set a tone for amenities and pricing in the surrounding blocks.
Cipriani Residences Miami
Further into the district, the 80-story Cipriani Residences began construction in October 2024, with completion estimated around 2028. As a branded luxury tower, it adds to a growing list of name-recognized residences that have become part of Brickell’s identity in recent years.
What it means if you are considering Brickell
New construction does a few helpful things for a neighborhood like this one. It gives renters more modern choices, it adds future resale inventory for buyers, and it frequently comes with developer incentives that older buildings cannot match. More supply can also bring a little balance to a market that has run hot, which is welcome news if you have felt priced out.
A few practical notes if you are weighing a move here. Pre-construction and recently delivered condos often carry different deposit structures, timelines, and association budgets than resale units, so it pays to compare the full picture, not just the sticker price. And because Brickell is a vertical, condo-heavy market, understanding a building’s amenities, fees, and rules matters as much as the floor plan.
If you are curious whether a brand-new tower, a recent delivery, or a well-priced resale fits you best, we are happy to walk you through what is available today and what is on the horizon. No pressure, just a clear picture.
