The Gateway at Wynwood is located minutes away from downtown Miami, Aventura and Miami Beach as well as Virgin Trains, Miami International Airport and PortMiami — the cruise capital of the world. Strategically located near Interstate 95, Gateway at Wynwood can be easily accessed from Fort Lauderdale and West Palm Beach to the north. The environmentally responsible project will have about 195,000 square feet of leasable office space, nearly 25,900 square feet of prime street-level retail, a private rooftop terrace and a garage. Amenities include 24/7 security and 2:1,000 on-site covered parking.

“The new class A office space with retail amenities will be a significant addition to the Wynwood/Midtown area. It is developments such as this that allow Miami to continue to attract top talent to our market,” Plaza Construction President Brad Meltzer said. “Plaza is pleased to be the selected builder of this project that adds to Miami’s live-work-play advantage.”

Renowned Miami architect Kobi Karp found inspiration in Wynwood’s artistic spirit and modern vibe to design the The Gateway at Wynwood. The 12-story tower is expected to be completed in the second half of 2021.

Plaza Wins Contract to Build SkyRise Miami

The structure, envisioned by renowned South Florida developer Berkowitz Development Group, will be one of the tallest buildings in Florida and the latest in a series of skyscrapers built by Plaza.

“Building a project of this height and complexity is no small feat, which is why we were looking for a construction partner who not only had experience building comparable projects but who was also up for the challenge,” Berkowitz Development Group Chairman Jeff Berkowitz said. “Plaza’s culture of transparency and collaboration were two factors that I required. Plaza unequivocally checked both boxes, and I’m confident that together, we’ll deliver a property that will stun and inspire South Floridians and global visitors for generations to come.”

When it’s complete, SkyRise Miami will be a unique “vertical” theme park featuring various observation decks, the world’s only indoor-controlled free-fall system, a drop tower-style ride featuring a record-breaking 95-mile-per-hour descent and various other attractions. SkyRise Miami is a revolutionary structure that will be instantly recognizable to all visitors and become an iconic building for the City of Miami. Construction of the foundation is set to begin in the second quarter of 2019, with completion slated for 2023.

“Our team is particularly well-suited to tackle the SkyRise project,” Plaza President Brad Meltzer said. “Not only do we have years of experience building in Miami’s challenging conditions, but we also have proven our ability to deliver incredibly complex structures, including high-rise towers, with the skill and precision necessary. It’s an honor to build skyline-defining projects, and we look forward to working with our client and all other team members to make this vision a reality.”

World-renowned architectural firm Arquitectonica is the architect for SkyRise Miami. SkyRise Miami will be the eighth project Plaza Construction has built with Arquitectonica, including the 67-story Marquis Residences in downtown Miami.
