Eight hundred and sixty feet above Miami's Brickell waterfront, a 74-story tower rises in five twisting cassettes of glass and steel — each cassette angled by Foster + Partners with surgical precision to open every residence toward Biscayne Bay.
This is not another luxury high-rise stacked along Brickell Avenue. This is 619 Brickell, the first Nobu-branded residential tower in Miami.
Nobu Hospitality — the global brand that has defined minimalist Japanese luxury across 57 countries — brings its full spectrum of services, dining, and wellness to a condominium in Miami for the first time.
The result is a pre-construction condo in Brickell, unlike anything the city has produced: a bayfront tower where private chef services, a residents-only Nobu restaurant, and a $25-million biohacking spa are not amenities — they are the baseline.
619 Brickell is a collaboration among four entities whose combined track record spans billions in completed real estate, thousands of hotel rooms, and some of the world's most recognizable buildings.
Developers 13th Floor Investments and Key International bring complementary strengths: 13th Floor is one of South Florida's most disciplined institutional investors, known for identifying and executing on undervalued market opportunities with precision.
Key International brings more than four decades of experience in high-end residential and mixed-use development, with completed projects including 1010 Brickell, The Harbor, and 400 Sunny Isles.
Foster + Partners — the British firm led by Sir Norman Foster and credited with Apple Park in Cupertino, The Hearst Tower in New York, and the Reichstag dome in Berlin — serves as concept architect, with Miami's own Sieger-Suarez Architects as architect of record.
The partnership ensures that the design vision passes through both international architectural ambition and local technical mastery without compromise.
Nobu Hospitality, the lifestyle brand co-founded by Nobu Matsuhisa and Robert De Niro, oversees all food and beverage programming, wellness philosophy, and residential service standards.
CEO Trevor Horwell described the project as "the next evolution of Nobu's lifestyle vision"—the brand's residential DNA applied to a full-scale tower on one of Biscayne Bay's finest remaining bayfront parcels.
Foster + Partners' design for 619 Brickell begins with a single, organizing principle: the bay. The tower's silhouette is composed of five stacked residential volumes — called cassettes — each rotated slightly from the one below, so that every floor in the building achieves its own optimal relationship to the water.
Continuous balcony lines wrap around each volume, creating a horizontal rhythm across the facade that reinforces the connection between interior life and the Biscayne Bay beyond.
The rounded corners that define each cassette are not decorative. They eliminate the visual hard edges common to glass towers and create the impression of a building in motion — a tower that appears to breathe and shift with the light.
At 860 feet, 619 Brickell will claim a significant position in Miami's skyline, but the architecture is calibrated to be as precise from the 30th floor as it is from the street.
Inside, the design philosophy reflects Nobu's roots in Japanese minimalism: natural materials, restrained detailing, and spaces that feel simultaneously spacious and warm.
Gaggenau kitchen suites, medical-grade HEPA air purification, ozone-enhanced whole-home water systems, circadian lighting that adjusts to the natural light cycle, and low-EMF grounded interiors bring a level of environmental intentionality rare in any residential building—and unprecedented in Brickell.
Floor-to-ceiling glass throughout each residence eliminates any barrier between interior living and panoramic water views. Wraparound terraces — many featuring summer kitchens — extend the living space outward, creating outdoor rooms that function as true extensions of the home rather than narrow balconies.
619 Brickell offers approximately 296 residences across 74 floors, organized into five distinct collections. Each collection occupies a specific range of floors and reflects a particular market position — from the intimacy of bayfront townhome-style layouts at lower levels to the expansive Sky Villas commanding the tower's upper atmosphere.
Every residence features 10-foot ceilings, floor-to-ceiling glass, and private terraces with unobstructed views of the bay, ocean, or skyline.
The tower's most distinctive entry point: two-level residences that approximate the experience of a private home within a full-service condominium.
Floor plans range from 2,236 to 3,611 sq. ft. across four configurations — 1CA (2,264 sq. ft., 3 bed / 3.5 bath + Den), 1CB and 1CC (each 3,611 sq. ft., 3 bed / 3.5 bath + Den, two levels), and 1CD (2,236 sq. ft., 3 bed / 3.5 bath + Den).
For buyers who want private-home scale and vertical separation within the footprint of a branded tower, Collection 1 is without precedent on Brickell Avenue.
Six floor plan configurations spanning from 1,364 to 2,754 sq. ft. accommodate a range of household structures and investment profiles.
Two-bedroom plans (2CE at 1,364 sq. ft. and 2CF at 1,367 sq. ft.) represent the most accessible entry point into the tower. Two-bedroom-plus-den configurations, 2CA (1,649 sq. ft.) and 2CD (1,656 sq. ft.), provide flexible secondary spaces.
Three-bedroom homes 2CB (2,754 sq. ft.) and 2CC (2,747 sq. ft.) offer full family-scale living with bay-facing primary suites.
Pricing: 1 Bed + Den from $2,720,000 – $2,900,000 • 2 Bed from $3,310,000 – $4,570,000 • 2 Bed + Den from $4,120,000 – $6,560,000
Elevated above the immediate urban fabric, Collection 3 introduces Biscayne Bay views that begin to feel genuinely unobstructed.
Floor plans range from 1,351 to 3,285 sq. ft.: 3CE (1,351 sq. ft., 2 bed / 2.5 bath), 3CD (1,502 sq. ft., 2 bed / 2.5 bath + Den), 3CC (2,753 sq. ft., 3 bed / 3.5 bath + Den), 3CB (2,763 sq. ft., 3 bed / 3.5 bath + Den), and 3CA — the floor's signature plan at 3,285 sq. ft. with 4 bedrooms, 5.5 bathrooms, and a den.
Pricing for 3-bedroom residences ranges from $5,630,000 to $8,690,000; 3 bed + den to $8,950,000.
By the mid-fifties, the Miami skyline and Biscayne Bay appear in full, uninterrupted panorama. Collection 4 mirrors Collection 3's layout logic with updated dimensions: 4CE (1,176 sq. ft., 1 bed / 1.5 bath + Den), 4CD (1,489 sq. ft., 2 bed / 2.5 bath), 4CB and 4CC (each 2,757–2,763 sq. ft., 3 bed / 3.5 bath + Den), and 4CA — the largest plan in this collection at 3,178 sq. ft., 4 bed / 5.5 bath + Den.
Four-bedroom homes at this elevation range from $9,100,000 to $11,190,000.
The tower's crown offers three configurations. 5CA and 5CD (each 2,876 sq. ft., 3 bed / 4.5 bath + Den) command the bay and ocean from well above the competition.
The defining offering is 5CBC — 5,534 sq. ft. across five bedrooms, 6.5 bathrooms, a dedicated game room, and a home office, representing one of the largest and most programmatically complete single-floor residences available in pre-construction Miami.
Prices for the Sky Villa tier reach up to $60,000,000 for the building's most exceptional offerings.
619 Brickell's amenity program encompasses more than 90,000 square feet of indoor and outdoor space — a scale that places it among the most extensively programmed residential towers in South Florida.
Every element is conceived and operated under Nobu Hospitality's direction, ensuring the experience within the building maintains Nobu's global standards.
The Nobu Wellness & Longevity Spa represents a $25 million commitment to biohacking and longevity-focused amenities — a category virtually absent from Miami's residential landscape. The program includes:
The fitness program at 619 Brickell is designed to rival the world's top wellness clubs:
Four distinct pool environments define outdoor life at 619 Brickell: an 86-foot sunset pool positioned for western-horizon views, hot and cold plunge pools, a rejuvenation salt pool, and a lap pool with an adjacent outdoor spa garden. Padel courts, game rooms, and sports simulators complete the recreational offering.
No element of 619 Brickell's amenity program distinguishes it more clearly from competing buildings than the full integration of Nobu Hospitality's dining ecosystem.
Residents have access to a ground-floor Nobu restaurant with a dedicated private dining room, a residents-only Nobu restaurant on the 11th floor, a Nobu café and bar with direct bay views, and on-demand in-residence dining with private chef services available on request.
The building's culinary programming is, in effect, a Nobu hotel experience — permanently embedded in a private residence.
In the context of Brickell’s existing residential landscape, this is a genuine category gap. Neither Icon Brickell nor One Brickell City Centre — the two towers most frequently cited as reference points — offers a hospitality-operated dining program accessible to residents from within the building.
The distinction matters for daily life: at 619 Brickell, a private chef dinner, a last-minute reservation in a Nobu private dining room, and in-room service from a Michelin-recognized kitchen are operational realities, not aspirational marketing copy.
Nobu Hospitality's concierge and lifestyle management services are operated to hotel-grade standards, including wellness coordination, daily housekeeping, butler services, childcare, pet care, chauffeur and house car access, and global dining and event reservations through the Nobu network.
619 Brickell Avenue sits directly on Biscayne Bay, immediately south of Icon Brickell on one of the most valuable remaining bayfront parcels in the city. The location positions residents at the intersection of Miami's financial center and its waterfront.
Brickell is Miami's fastest-growing district for ultra-luxury residential development. It is also the most walkable: Brickell City Centre, Mary Brickell Village, dozens of Michelin-recognized restaurants, and the Brickell Metromover stop are all within a short walk of the building's entrance.
The Metromover provides car-free connectivity to Downtown Miami, Wynwood, and the Arts District.
619 Brickell enters the market at a moment when two converging forces are reshaping Miami's luxury residential landscape: the accelerating global recognition of Brickell as a world-class financial address, and the demonstrated price premium commanded by hospitality-branded residences.
According to the Knight Frank Branded Residences Report, branded residences globally command a price premium averaging 31% over unbranded comparable product in the same submarket — and in high-visibility hospitality markets like Miami, that premium has historically trended upward as the brand's operational track record in the building accumulates.
The Nobu brand, with its globally unified identity and service standards, brings one of the hospitality world's most recognizable names to a Brickell address that has lacked a true branded residential reference point.
The pricing structure reflects the tower's positioning as pre-construction inventory in one of Miami's highest-demand submarkets. With an estimated completion date of 2030, buyers entering now secure access to some of the most desirable floor plates in the building — including upper-collection plans that are statistically the first to sell and the slowest to reprice at resale.
The building's location directly on Biscayne Bay is a structural scarcity. Available bayfront parcels in Brickell are effectively exhausted; no equivalent waterfront development site remains to supply meaningful competition to 619 Brickell's view corridors or Nobu food and beverage access.
For investors evaluating long-term capital appreciation, bayfront land supply constraints are among the most durable price-support mechanisms in any real estate market.
The nearest comparable pre-construction offerings in Miami — Aston Martin Residences and Una Residences — confirm the market’s appetite for architecturally distinctive, design-driven towers. Neither, however, combines a direct Biscayne Bay bayfront parcel with a hospitality operator of Nobu’s global standing.
Aston Martin Residences occupies the Miami River mouth, not the bay; Una Residences in Brickell offers curated finishes without a food-and-beverage or wellness program under a recognized hospitality brand.
For buyers evaluating these alternatives, 619 Brickell’s combination of water position, architectural authorship, and operational hospitality infrastructure places it in a category that has no direct competition in the current Miami pipeline.
Rental demand in Brickell — driven by the district's concentration of financial services, technology, and professional firms — is among the most consistent in South Florida.
The Nobu brand identification adds a further tier of rental premium for executive and international tenants. Prospective buyers should confirm rental policies directly with the sales team, as HOA regulations are subject to finalization before closing.
Brickell is the only neighborhood in Miami where you can walk from a Michelin-recognized restaurant to a bayfront marina to a Metromover station in under ten minutes — and still be in your office in the city’s principal financial district the same morning.
For residents of 619 Brickell, this is not a weekend amenity. It is the texture of daily life at the building’s front door.
Brickell City Centre, the neighbourhood’s 5.4-million-square-foot mixed-use anchor, sits 0.3 miles north. Its EAST Miami hotel, Cipriani, Quinto La Huella, and the Saks Fifth Avenue flagship anchor a retail and dining corridor that serves both residents and the financial community that surrounds it.
Mary Brickell Village, two blocks to the south, adds a second cluster: Fado Irish Pub anchors the casual end while COYA, Amal, and Truluck’s cover the full spectrum of formal dining. Neither development requires a car from 619 Brickell — both are walkable at any hour.
The Brickell Metromover station, 0.4 miles away, provides free, car-free connectivity across the urban core: Wynwood in 12 minutes, the Design District in 15, the Adrienne Arsht Center for the Performing Arts in 8.
Miami International Airport is 8 miles from the building via I-95 or SR-836, typically 20–25 minutes outside peak hours. For residents who travel internationally, this is the most time-efficient airport access of any waterfront address in Miami.
Biscayne Bay, directly east of the building, opens the neighborhood to a second layer of daily life that is less quantifiable but equally important: morning kayak launches, evening runs along the bayfront promenade, weekend sailing from the Brickell Key marina, 0.5 miles south. Key Biscayne — Miami’s barrier island preserve — is a 20-minute drive; Coconut Grove’s Regatta Park and sailing clubs are 3.2 miles south.
For families, Brickell’s public schools have improved materially over the past decade, and the private school corridor along Coral Way — including Ransom Everglades and Carrollton School — is a 12-minute drive.
What Brickell does not offer — and what distinguishes it from Edgewater or the Design District — is the kind of low-density, residential quiet that some buyers prioritize. It is a dense, vertical, commercially active urban neighborhood.
Buyers who choose 619 Brickell are, in effect, choosing that energy: proximity to the bay and the city simultaneously, with the building itself serving as the private retreat from both.
Completion is projected for 2030. The project is in the pre-construction phase as of 2025–2026, with sales actively underway. Buyers should factor a standard pre-construction timeline of 4–5 years when planning financing and occupancy.
Rental eligibility is subject to the finalization of the HOA documents prior to closing. Buyers with investment intent should confirm short-term and long-term rental policies directly with the sales team before contract execution.
The building’s Brickell location and Nobu brand positioning are expected to support strong executive and corporate rental demand regardless of the specific policy structure.
Collection 1 (Levels 5–8) comprises two-level townhome-style residences of 2,236–3,611 sq. ft., offering the experience of a private home with direct access to the building’s full amenity program.
Collection 5 (Levels 62–71) contains the building’s Sky Villas — single-floor residences of up to 5,534 sq. ft. with unobstructed 360-degree panoramas of Biscayne Bay, the Atlantic Ocean, and the Miami skyline.
The two collections target different buyer profiles: Collection 1 prioritizes scale and privacy at lower elevations; Collection 5 prioritizes altitude, views, and statement scale.
Interior design is developed under the Nobu Hospitality aesthetic direction, guided by the brand’s Japanese minimalist philosophy.
Specific interior design credits for 619 Brickell have not been publicly confirmed beyond Nobu’s programmatic involvement.
The architectural interiors are defined by Gaggenau kitchens, medical-grade HEPA air systems, circadian lighting, and travertine and natural material palettes consistent with Nobu’s global design language.
Three structural factors support long-term value at 619 Brickell: a direct bayfront parcel on Biscayne Bay in a market where equivalent sites are exhausted, Foster + Partners architecture, whose residential projects hold consistent demand at resale, and Nobu Hospitality’s operational presence — a brand standard that tenants and buyers in the executive market recognize globally.
As with any pre-construction purchase, independent legal and financial due diligence is recommended. Bogatov Realty can refer qualified Miami-based attorneys with pre-construction experience.
619 Brickell is the only tower in the current Brickell pipeline that combines a direct Biscayne Bay bayfront parcel, Foster + Partners architecture, an integrated Nobu hospitality and dining program, and a $25 million longevity wellness investment under one address.

"619 Brickell is what the Brickell skyline has been waiting for: a building that commands the bay, carries a global brand, and delivers an interior life that no other address in Miami can replicate."
