One Bayfront Plaza, Mixed-use skyscraper in Downtown Miami, United States
One Bayfront Plaza is a proposed supertall skyscraper at 100 South Biscayne Boulevard in Miami, planned at 1,049 feet with 93 floors. Its design pairs a large podium with a tower meant to resemble a sail, reflecting the bay it overlooks. The project would hold offices, two hotels, 700 residential units, retail and parking. The 1959 office building on the site, also marketed as One Bayfront Plaza, was covered in graffiti during Art Basel in March 2024 and demolition began in 2025.
The international architecture firm Kohn Pedersen Fox designed this building as part of Miami's vertical growth in the early 21st century. The construction had to follow height regulations due to the nearby airport, which shaped how the project could develop.
The building houses retail shops, residences, and a hotel, drawing people who work, shop, and stay in this central location. This mix shows how a single structure serves multiple purposes in the daily rhythm of the city.
The building connects directly to a Metromover transit station across Biscayne Boulevard, providing easy access to Miami's public transportation system. Visitors can explore the downtown area easily by using this transit connection to move around the city.
The 1959 office block on the site, also marketed as One Bayfront Plaza, stayed in use for decades while the tower waited: three-year leases were still being offered in March 2011, and tenants remained until the end of 2014. It stood vacant by 2024, was covered in graffiti during Art Basel in March 2024, and demolition began in 2025.
