The avenue, the tower, the residences, the specification, the solar facade, the amenity floors and the numbers behind The Residences at 1428 Brickell, compiled by the desk at Miami Dossier from the developer's published material and the public record.
Written by the desk at Miami Dossier from the developer's published material and the public construction record, for readers who want the facts of the building rather than the adjectives. Figures are given in ranges where sources differ. The desk works in English, Spanish and Portuguese. All notes from the desk.
This is the reference note. It is the building described plainly, from the ground up, with the figures we can attribute to the developer's published material and the public record, given in ranges where sources differ. The desk at Miami Dossier keeps it current as the release changes. A companion note on the practical decisions is linked at the end.
The 1400 block of Brickell Avenue is in the centre of the residential run of the avenue, between the financial district to the north and South Brickell to the south, a short walk from Brickell City Centre and Mary Brickell Village and a few minutes from the causeways to Key Biscayne and Miami Beach.
Seventy storeys, roughly 860 feet at the upper amenity levels, designed by ACPV Architects with Arquitectonica as local architect. Residential only. Designed to LEED certification. John Moriarty and Associates is the general contractor.
More than 500 photovoltaic-integrated glass panels on the west facade, roughly 20,000 square feet of energy-producing glass, reported to produce up to roughly 170,000 kilowatt-hours a year to partly power the building.

This note is compiled from the developer's published material for The Residences at 1428 Brickell, the public construction record and the reporting around it, cross-referenced so that no figure rests on a single source. Where sources differ the note gives a range rather than a number. The desk at Miami Dossier obtains the current floor plans, release and deposit schedule directly on request and reads them with buyers; anything material should be confirmed against the developer's own documents. We do not represent the developer and we hold no position in the building.

Most of the people who ask the desk at Miami Dossier about The Residences at 1428 Brickell are not only choosing a building. They are moving to Miami from New York, California, London, Bogotá, Mexico City or São Paulo, or adding a Miami position to a portfolio held elsewhere, and the building question sits inside a larger one: how to buy new construction in Miami, how to hold it, and what changes when you do.
The desk keeps short notes on the parts that come up every week: how buying preconstruction in Miami actually works, what a normal deposit schedule looks like, whether you need to be in Miami to buy, whether a foreign buyer can get a mortgage, what taxes a foreign buyer pays on a Miami condo, and the Florida state income tax question for anyone relocating from a high-tax state. For buyers arriving from a specific market there are notes for Bogotá, Mexico City and London, and a broader one on why so many wealthy families are moving to Miami.
Read the ones that apply, then bring the rest to the desk at Miami Dossier. It usually takes one conversation to see how The Residences at 1428 Brickell fits the move, or whether another building fits it better.
This note is general information for people considering Miami, written by a real estate desk, not by a law or accounting firm. Nothing here is legal, tax, immigration or investment advice, and it is not a substitute for advice on your own circumstances. Rules change, treaties differ by country, and the right answer for one family is the wrong answer for another.
Speak with your own attorney and CPA before you commit to anything. If you do not have one who works with international buyers in Florida, the desk is glad to recommend an attorney, a CPA or an adviser suited to your situation, and to sit in the first conversation so that nothing is lost in translation.
Structure, financing, currency, timing, the right building and the right line: the desk works through these questions with international buyers every week, and the answer is nearly always that it can be done, in order, without surprises. If Miami is on your mind, as a home or as an allocation, we would be glad to share what we are seeing, privately, and to start with the question this note did not answer.
Nobody chooses The Residences at 1428 Brickell in isolation. The desk at Miami Dossier weighs it against Cipriani Residences Miami, and sets it beside every other building in Brickell and Brickell Key on the Brickell and Brickell Key cluster. If the question underneath yours is really what a brand is obliged to do after closing, start there instead.
