Florida’s Tallest Building to Begin Construction in Miami

SkyRise Miami, more theme park than office tower, is expected to begin construction in early 2019.

Nearly four years after plans were first introduced to bring Florida’s tallest building to South Florida, construction is reportedly ready to begin. Construction on SkyRise Miami, which is more theme park than office tower, is expected to begin in the first quarter of 2019, according to Building Design + Construction. SkyRise Miami will feature a 4D simulator theater that will suspend riders 40 ft. in the air, as well as a zero-gravity tunnel, a Skywalk positioned over 900 ft. above the city, and a Skydrop that will send riders free-falling at up to 95 mph.
