“Lighthearted” Mixed-Use Tower Tops Out in Downtown Miami
Avant at Met Square, a 43-story tower containing approximately 390 apartments, an 18-screen movie theater, a gallery showcasing local history, restaurants and stores, structurally topped out in August in downtown Miami, SkyRise Cities reported. The design, described by architect Nichols Brosch Wurst Wolf & Associates (NBWW) as “lighthearted” and “approachable,” features “a playful composition of stacked cubes” and a pool deck with outdoor lounging space atop a podium. Located at 340 Southeast 3rd Street, the tower represents the fourth and final phase of MDM Development Group’s US$1-billion Metropolitan Miami project.
