619 Brickell by Nobu

Location & neighborhood

619 Brickell by Nobu rises on a roughly two-acre bayfront parcel at 619 Brickell Avenue, on the eastern, water-facing edge of Brickell — Miami's dense financial district, often called the "Wall Street of the South." The site sits directly on Biscayne Bay beside the historic First Miami Presbyterian Church, which will remain in place, and is steps from Brickell Avenue's banks and law firms, Brickell City Centre's shopping and dining, and Metromover transit. Marketed as the last premier waterfront site in the financial district, the location pairs open bay views with the walkable energy of Brickell — an uncommon combination among the neighborhood's inland branded towers.

Architecture & design

The 75-story, roughly 860-foot tower is designed by Pritzker Prize-winning Foster + Partners in collaboration with Sieger Suarez Architects as architect of record. New 2026 renderings show a slender glass structure composed of five twisting "cassettes," each rotated to maximize water views, with rounded corners, stacked residential volumes, and continuous balcony lines wrapping the façade. Floor-to-ceiling glass and deep wraparound terraces define the exterior, emphasizing indoor-outdoor living and panoramic Biscayne Bay exposure.

Residences & finishes

The tower holds 296 residences (some sources cite 306) across five collections: one- to four-bedroom homes, 19 Sky Villas, and four Penthouses, ranging from about 1,176 to 5,534 square feet. Homes feature 10-foot ceilings, full-height glass, and expansive wraparound terraces, with refined interiors attributed to Studio Munge and DesignAgency. Every residence is oriented to capture bay and skyline views.

Amenities & lifestyle

619 Brickell devotes more than 90,000 square feet to Nobu-programmed amenities. Dining anchors the lifestyle: a ground-floor Nobu restaurant with a residents-only private dining room, a residents-only Nobu restaurant on the 11th floor, and a Nobu café and bar with bay views, plus in-residence dining and private chef services. The wellness program is unusually deep — a Nobu Wellness & Longevity Spa built around a roughly $25 million longevity and biohacking investment, including cryotherapy chambers, hyperbaric oxygen suites, IV and peptide therapy, and ozone therapy. Outdoors, four pools (an 86-foot sunset pool, hot and cold plunge pools, a rejuvenation salt pool, and a lap pool with a spa garden) join padel courts, game rooms, and sports simulators.

Price, payment plan & delivery

Pricing starts around $2,815,000 for one-bedroom residences and runs up to roughly $18.75 million for the largest standard homes and Sky Villas, with penthouses reaching up to about $60 million; average pricing is reported at roughly $2,500–$2,700 per square foot. The developers publish a staged deposit structure of approximately 40% pre-closing during construction with the balance (~60%) due at closing. Groundbreaking is targeted for around the second quarter of 2027, with completion expected in 2030 (some sources cite September/December 2030). Notably, the project secured more than $1 billion in reservations before its June 2026 sales launch.

Developer, architect & brand

619 Brickell is developed by 13th Floor Investments and Key International — two established South Florida firms — with capitalization from The Baupost Group, a Boston investment manager with more than $28 billion in assets. Sales are led by One Sotheby's International Realty with Key International. The building marks Nobu Hospitality's first residential tower in Miami; Nobu — founded by chef Nobu Matsuhisa, Robert De Niro, and Meir Teper — oversees all restaurants, cafés, and in-residence dining. Architecture by Foster + Partners with Sieger Suarez completes a globally credentialed team.

International investment rationale

For international buyers, 619 Brickell combines three rare advantages: a genuine Brickell bayfront site, a Pritzker-laureate architect (Foster + Partners), and a globally recognized hospitality brand (Nobu) with its first Miami residential offering. Branded residences in Miami have historically commanded resale premiums over non-branded comparables, and the tower's $1B+ pre-launch reservation demand signals strong absorption. Combined with Florida's no-state-income-tax environment, Miami's deep global flight connectivity, and dollar-denominated ownership, the project is positioned as a trophy address for wealth preservation and second-home use.
