In a concrete tower the neighbour you hear is usually the one above, walking. At Waldorf Astoria Residences Miami, here is how the building is meant to keep that sound where it starts.
This page is a framework. Whether the building suits you is a separate conversation. Contact the desk at Miami Dossier for the current position on any building we cover.
Voices and music travel through the air; walls and floors are rated for them by STC, the sound transmission class. Footsteps, dropped objects and chairs travel through the structure; floor and ceiling assemblies are rated for them by IIC, the impact insulation class. The Florida Building Code sets a minimum for each between residences, and some luxury towers state higher targets. Ask which figures Waldorf Astoria Residences Miami commits to, and whether they are tested on site or only calculated.
Waldorf Astoria Residences Miami: Furnished junior suites, and 1 to 4 bedroom private residences.
The Waldorf Astoria Residences Miami dossier holds the developer’s published record. Read it against the Kempinski Residences Miami Design District dossier for the nearest comparison.
Stone, tile and wood carry impact sound into the slab. Declarations usually require an approved acoustic underlayment beneath any hard floor, and a few require a test once it is laid. Ask what the rule at Waldorf Astoria Residences Miami says, whether the developer’s own finished floors meet it, and whether an owner who renovates must submit the product and its rating to the association before work starts.
Waldorf Astoria Residences Miami: ~360 branded residences across a 100 story tower, with hotel guestrooms and suites.
Some noise comes from the building itself: an elevator shaft beside a bedroom, a trash chute behind a wall, pumps, generators and cooling towers on the roof or the amenity deck. Read the floor plans at Waldorf Astoria Residences Miami for what sits on the far side of each bedroom wall, and ask where the mechanical rooms sit in relation to the lines under consideration.
Waldorf Astoria Residences Miami: Peacock Alley, resort pool with cafe and cabanas, private residential pool deck, owners lounge with panoramic bay views, signature restaurant, all day brasserie, private bar and wine tasting room, signature spa, fitness center with private studios, kids club.
Laminated impact glass usually cuts traffic and boat noise better than ordinary glazing, and a window’s OITC rating measures that outdoor sound. Ask whether the acoustic targets for Waldorf Astoria Residences Miami appear in the construction drawings or only in the brochure, and whether an acoustic consultant reported on them. The desk asks the developer of Waldorf Astoria Residences Miami for the acoustic specification in writing.
