The Waldorf Astoria Hotel and Residences is a skyscraper currently under construction in Miami, Florida. It is the first supertall building (>300 meters or 1,000 ft) to begin construction in Florida, out of several that have been proposed in Miami in the 21st century. It is planned to be constructed on the proposed site of the Empire World Towers in the 2000s, which was ultimately scaled back and cancelled.
The building is planned to rise to the maximum allowable height in downtown Miami of 1,049 ft (320 meters) above sea level, or about 1,040 ft (317 meters) above ground,[1][2] making it easily the tallest building in Miami and Florida, surpassing the Panorama Tower built in 2017. Construction began in late 2022 and is expected to complete in 2026. It is located on Biscayne Boulevard between NE 3rd and 4th Streets in the Central business district of Greater Downtown Miami, across from Bayfront Park. The design is inspired by stacked and cantilevered boxes; it will have nine such cubes with 10 to 11 floors each, comprising nearly 100 stories of condominium and hotel space, topped by a five floor penthouse with over 30,000 square feet (2,800 m2)[3] It is named after the Waldorf Astoria New York in New York City; worldwide Waldorf Astoria hotels are managed under the Hilton Hotels group.
