MIAMI—Swire Properties has selected Americaribe and John Moriarty & Associates of Florida as the construction management team that will build the luxury shopping center, two residential towers, hotel, serviced apartments, wellness center, and class A offices at Brickell CityCentre. The building construction contract is worth nearly $500 million.
Brickell CityCentre is the largest private-sector project currently under construction in Miami. The mixed-use development spans 5.4 million gross square feet and crosses South Miami Avenue from Eighth Street to Sixth Street.
“It was important for us to select a team that delivered the most competitive schedule and met Swire's high standards for Brickell CityCentre,” says Christopher Gandolfo, senior vice president of Development for Swire. “We believe this team, which brought together the best resources of two well-respected companies will build a project that will redefine urban living in Miami for decades to come.”
Swire selected the joint venture based on Americaribe's expertise in constructing large-scale multifaceted international projects and Moriarty's knowledge and understanding of the local market. Americaribe is the local subsidiary of the French construction company Bouygues Bâtiment International.
The joint venture will be responsible for constructing Phase 1 of Brickell CityCentre, which will offer seven acres of mixed-use development, including a luxury shopping center, two residential towers, a hotel, serviced apartments, a wellness center and office. All components of Phase 1 will be constructed simultaneously with completion scheduled for fourth quarter 2015.
