Standing along the Hudson waterfront, the topped-out 900-foot-tall residential tower is clearly visible from Manhattan. Plaza Construction is in charge of building 99 Hudson Street, which will include 781 condominium units, 12 elevators, and a luxurious 9,000-square-foot lobby with millwork, fabric walls, stone flooring and glass entrances. Approximately 15,000 square feet of commercial and retail space is included, along with a 7,000-square-foot plaza. The facade will be limestone, glass and aluminum.

YIMBY went to the top of the skyscraper earlier this year, and returned recently to take in the views during golden hour. “The external mechanical hoist has been dismantled and the remaining Jura limestone and glass panels are filling up the vertical strips in the curtain wall of Jersey City’s tallest skyscraper,” highlighted by YIMBY. Completion of 99 Hudson Street is expected next year.

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.
