1221 Brickell Building, Office building in Brickell, United States
The 1221 Brickell Building is a modern office tower in Miami's financial district with a gleaming glass exterior and stepped side profiles. The structure contains multiple floors of office space spread throughout the building.
The building was completed in 1986 during a period of economic growth in downtown Miami. It sustained major damage to its glass facade during Hurricane Wilma in 2005.
This structure represents Miami's expansion as a commercial center, housing multiple financial sector businesses within its 56,000 square meters of office space.
The building sits three blocks from Biscayne Bay and connects easily to downtown Miami's business and transportation networks. Visitors can access it conveniently through its central location in the Brickell neighborhood.
The structure was engineered with specific design features to resist tropical storms and high-wind events. This resilience became apparent when damage from severe weather was repaired and the building returned to service.
