Miami\u2019s Brickell Key is entering a new era with The Residences at Mandarin Oriental, Miami, an ultra-luxury development comprising private residences and a new hotel, following the successful demolition of the building that housed the city\u2019s former Mandarin Oriental Hotel. The milestone marks a significant step forward for the new development, which has achieved $1.3 billion in residential sales \u2013 including last month\u2019s record-breaking dual penthouse sales totaling $100 million \u2013 ahead of groundbreaking later this year.<\/p>\n
\u201cMandarin Oriental has been a defining part of Brickell Key for more than two decades, and the brand\u2019s legacy will live on with the development of two towers set to transform residential living and hospitality in Miami,\u201d said Dave Martin, President of Swire Properties. \u201cWith demolition now behind us, our team is eager to get going with vertical construction as we entertain buyers from across the U.S. and around the world.\u201d<\/p>\n
The controlled-implosion of the 23-story hotel and its adjacent six-story parking structure took place in a matter of seconds on the morning of Sunday, April 12th, clearing the site for The Residences at Mandarin Oriental, Miami, which will feature 228 private residences in the South Tower and 70 private residences, 28 turnkey hotel collection residences, and what is destined to be the brand\u2019s new North America flagship hotel with 121 keys in the North Tower.<\/p>\n
The existing structure came down in a controlled manner as part of a carefully orchestrated demolition process that required nearly two years of planning and coordination among specialized experts \u2013 including The BG Group LLC, Controlled Demolition Inc., and Moss Construction \u2013 working in collaboration with the City of Miami.<\/p>\n
