  • To Be the Tallest Residential Building on the East Coast This Side of New York, Panorama Tower Is to Rise 83 Stories in the Heart of Brickell
    To be the tallest residential building on the East Coast this side of New York, Panorama Tower is to rise 83 stories in the heart of Brickell. It is a source of pride for developer Tibor Hollo and his Florida East Coast Realty. On a clear night, those living in the upper levels of Panorama will be able to see the lights of Bimini, according to Dean Warhaft, vice president/ development coordinator for the company. Foundation work began in June 2014. The project is to bring a mix of hotel rooms, luxury apartments, office space and restaurants to Brickell Avenue. “It’s actually a little bit ahead of schedule now and we’re going to keep pushing to stay ahead of schedule,” Mr. Warhaft told Miami Today this week. “We will be complete with the foundation and out of the ground late February, early March,” he said. The steel goes skyward at that point. “What we’ll do, once the foundation is poured, is go immediately to the second and third floor,” he said, noting that it is typical for the first floor to remain open for access while top floors are built and finished.This assists in the location of connections and utilities, he said. The company anticipates completion around the third quarter of 2017, he said. “That keeps us three months ahead of the schedule that the city has for the project,” said Mr. Warhaft. Panorama Tower is expected to cost more than $800 million. The project has the distinction of being the first accepted by the City of Miami EB-5 Regional Center to take advantage of the foreign investment program.

  • Büro Ole Scheeren Unveils Design for Guardian Art Center in Beijing
    PRESS RELEASE March 9, 2015 A fusion of time and a synthesis of China's rich cultural history: Büro Ole Scheeren unveils design for Guardian Art Center in Beijing Located in close proximity to the Forbidden City, construction is underway on the new headquarters of China’s oldest art auction house. Embedded in the historic fabric of central Beijing, the building will form a new hybrid institution between museum, event space, and cultural lifestyle center. Ole Scheeren’s design for the Guardian Art Center carefully inscribes the building into the surrounding context, in a sensitive architectural interpretation that fuses history and tradition with a contemporary vision for the future of a cultural art space. The ‘pixelated’ volumes of the lower portion of the building subtly refer to the adjacent historic urban fabric, echoing the grain, color and intricate scale of Beijing’s hutongs, while the upper portion of the building responds to the larger scale of the surrounding contemporary city. This floating ‘ring’ forms an inner courtyard to the building and further resonates with the prevalent typology of the courtyard houses in Beijing. “The Art Center will be a tangible link between past, present, and future. It celebrates history and tradition while also representing an important social and civic amenity for the capital” says China Guardian’s Chairman and Founder, Chen Dongsheng. “The design of the building shares its qualities with those of Guardian. It is profound, simple, and clean, and exudes a sense of stability and trustworthiness” adds Mr. Chen. “Ole Scheeren’s work is rooted in culture and history; it reflects the culture of the site and the culture and customs of the Chinese people.
