The Ultimate Guide to Brickell’s 5 Most Prestigious Condos

by Barbara Ciaccio Morales

 

Brickell is where Miami gets business done, so it doesn’t come as a surprise that the neighborhood is home to some of the finest properties catering to a wide array of residents. From globetrotting professionals to tech executives, VC investors, business moguls, and celebrities like Shakira, Brickell is a top choice for those who want to live at the crossroads of the United States, Europe, and Latin America—all on the bayfront.

If you’re curious about the kind of luxury residences available for such global citizens, we’ve ranked the five best buildings in Brickell. But first, let’s dive a little into the neighborhood.



Why Choose to Live in Brickell?

 

Not only is Brickell the second-largest banking hub in the United States, it is also home to several international consulates, corporations, businesses, and a majority of the offices in Miami. It is considered the international financial gateway to Latin America, as well as some of Europe. As such, you’ll see that many domestic and international companies have their U.S. headquarters here, earning it the moniker “Manhattan of the South.”

In the past few years, Brickell has become the darling of major tech and VC companies, as dozens have either relocated to Miami or established new offices here. This means that if you like to walk to work or live very near to it, this is the neighborhood for you.

Brickell is also serviced by all major public transportation systems in the city, giving it one of the highest Miami transit scores at 91, meaning most hotspots and conveniences are within walking distance.

Over the past decade, this financial district has also evolved from a drab business neighborhood to an exciting shopping, dining, and leisure destination, thanks to the addition of the outdoor, luxury shopping mall Brickell City Centre, plus South Miami Avenue’s collection of high-end retail, restaurants, bars, and lounges. Even the public schools in this bayside, coastal neighborhood are above average, making it a true live-work-play destination for individuals and families alike, and it’s one of the best areas to invest in a Miami condo because it sees so much business and vacation travelers.

Now, let’s take a look at the best luxury condos in Brickell, Miami.
