JSR has also written about Miami’s branded residence boom and about the Miami towers that have moved their delivery date. The recorded sale quoted near the end of this post has its own JSR post: Miami-Dade’s recorded condominium sale record.

Where the building actually is

Vertical construction is the only status that matters on a tower this far from delivery, and it is checkable.

Florida YIMBY reported on 27 August 2026 that “construction has begun on the ninth and final cube of Waldorf Astoria Hotel & Residences Miami, bringing the 100-story supertall into the final major stage of its vertical rise at 300 Biscayne Boulevard in Downtown Miami.” In the same report, citing images posted publicly on 23 August 2026 by Miami content creator Joel Franco, Florida YIMBY records that the superstructure “had reached level 85 as work commenced on the final cube.”

Florida YIMBY adds a caution worth repeating: “The level 85 figure refers to the current structural level and should not be read as a direct count of the remaining occupied stories, as the tower’s official program continues to be described as 100 stories.”

Curtain wall is behind the concrete. Per the same 27 August 2026 report, “curtain wall installation has progressed through the seventh cube, with dark reflective glazing now enclosing substantial portions of the lower volumes.”

Rewind nine months for the pace. Florida YIMBY reported on 8 December 2025 that the tower had “completed the concrete pour for its 50th level, marking the halfway point of vertical construction,” and was “rising at an average rate of one floor every 10 days.” From 50 floors in early December 2025 to level 85 in late August 2026 is roughly 35 levels in about eight and a half months.

The program

Per Florida YIMBY, 8 December 2025: “The development will include 387 private residences and 205 hotel rooms, owned and managed by Hilton Management Services.” The site is “at the northwest corner of Biscayne Boulevard and Northeast Third Street, directly across from Bayfront Park.”

Design and delivery team, from the same report: Sieger Suarez Architects in collaboration with Carlos Ott, interiors by BAMO, general contractor John Moriarty & Associates. The development team is “Property Markets Group and Greybrook Realty Partners, alongside Mohari Hospitality, S2 Development, and Hilton.”

USA TODAY’s report of 21 September 2026 lists a slightly narrower group: “Property Markets Group, Greybrook Realty Partners, S2 Development and Mohari Hospitality are all listed as developers on the building’s website,” and notes that “Carlos Ott is listed as the ‘conceptual artist,’ and Sieger Suarez Architects is also involved.”

The foundation is a useful scale marker. Florida YIMBY reported on 27 August 2026 that in June 2024, John Moriarty & Associates and Capform “completed a 31-hour continuous mat foundation pour involving approximately 12,400 cubic yards of concrete, 195 workers, and 1,240 truck deliveries.”

The height claim, stated precisely

USA TODAY reported on 21 September 2026 that the tower “will be 1,049 feet tall when construction ‘tops out,’ according to its website, which says it will be the tallest residential building south of New York City.” Florida YIMBY used the same formulation on 8 December 2025: “Once completed, it will become the tallest residential building south of New York City.”

Note the tense in both. It is a claim about a finished building, and the building is not finished.

For a sense of the threshold, USA TODAY’s 21 September 2026 report gives 984 feet as the definition of a supertall. For a sense of scale on the block, Florida YIMBY noted on 8 December 2025 that “the Vizcayne condominium towers directly across the street, rise 49 stories and 538 feet.”

On the nearest tall comparison, USA TODAY reported on 21 September 2026 that Cipriani Residences at 1420 S. Miami Ave. “is 85 stories and measures about 950 feet,” that it “topped out” in July 2026, and that it “is still under construction with occupancy expected to begin in 2027.”

What a buyer still cannot look up

As of 23 September 2026, and across the three reports cited here:

• No price list, no entry price and no published price per square foot.
• No deposit schedule, and therefore no stated treatment of the amounts above the 10 percent that Fla. Stat. 718.202 requires to be escrowed.
• No outside date, the contractual deadline after which a buyer may terminate and recover deposits.
• No closed resale history, because no deed has been recorded in a building that has not delivered. Any “record price” attached to this address today is an asking price or a contract, not a recorded sale.
• No confirmed topping-out date. Florida YIMBY reported on 27 August 2026 that site signage “advertises that the tower will top off this winter.”

That last distinction is the one that costs people money. JSR’s penthouse price board separates closed, in contract and asking for exactly this reason: Miami-Dade’s recorded condominium sale record is $86,004,500, at the Seaway at The Surf Club, recorded 11 November 2025. Everything quoted above at 300 Biscayne is pre-delivery.

Record checked 23 September 2026. PMG, Greybrook, S2 Development, Mohari Hospitality and Hilton have made no public statement beyond the reports cited above as of that date. JSR did not seek comment.
