Our initial report shared that developer Crescent Heights was moving forward with a 31-story tower that would offer 120 residences. Now, the firm hopes to increase the height and density of the project through the Live Local Act.<\/p>\n<p>Updated plans for 824 Alton call for a 39-story tower soaring more than 500 feet above grade. Additionally, there would be 149 residences: 72 workforce housing units and 77 market-rate residences. The workforce units would average around 445 square feet, while the market-rate units would be significantly larger at 1,368 square feet.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-42351\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/Screenshot-2026-10-03-at-7.21.27-PM.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1200\" height=\"634\"  \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-caption-text\">Original plans (pictured) called for a 31-story tower. Image by RSP Architects<\/p>\n<p>To qualify for benefits under the Live Local Act, at least 40 percent of the residences (about 60) must be designated as workforce housing for households earning no more than 120 percent of the area median income (AMI). Communal amenities would be largely located on the seventh floor, with offerings including multiple swimming pools.<\/p>\n<p>Other features of 824 Alton include more than 2,500 square feet of ground-floor retail space and a six-story parking podium with 156 spots. 824 Alton is located at its namesake: <a href=\"https:\/\/maps.app.goo.gl\/CoyaRhqzVgvesJZF9\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">824 Alton Road, Miami, Florida<\/a>, 33139, in Miami-Dade County.<\/p>\n<p> <a href=\"http:\/\/eepurl.com\/hud0UH\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Subscribe<\/a> to YIMBY\u2019s daily e-mail<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/google.com\/preferences\/source?q=https%3A%2F%2Ffloridayimby.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/1791120731_186_google_preferred_source_badge.png\" width=\"245\" height=\"40\" alt=\"Make YIMBY preferred on Google\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/instagram.com\/yimbygram\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">Follow<\/a> YIMBYgram for real-time photo updates<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/YIMBYFB\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Like<\/a>\u00a0YIMBY on Facebook<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/yimbytweets\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">Follow<\/a> YIMBY\u2019s Twitter for the latest in YIMBYnews<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/floridayimby.com\/category\/uncategorized\" rel=\"category tag nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Uncategorized<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"display: inline;\">. <\/p>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><script async src=\"\/\/www.instagram.com\/embed.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Image by RSP Architects By: Colt Dodd 7:00 am on October 4, 2026 Last October, Florida YIMBY shared&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":418474,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[15],"tags":[225,227,226],"class_list":["post-418473","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-hialeah","tag-hialeah","tag-hialeah-headlines","tag-hialeah-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/418473","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=418473"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/418473\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/418474"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=418473"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=418473"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=418473"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
