well i didn't want to go to school today,so i faked a sickness in order to not have to take my math test,and boy i'm i glad that i did..so i'm flipping channels and stop at the city of miami channel,i see that paramount edgewater is trying to get apporoval so i'm watching and all of a sudden brescia,the head architect from arquitectonica saids, just for you to see whats happening let me show you our future skyline he pulls out this long picture starting from paramount park all the way to blue,but they turned the camera after they passed onyx1 so this was all i was able to get.but all i know is that paramount park is huge :eek2: ,look at it compared to 900biscayne.also i don't have a clue what are those towers next to opera i'm guessing those are the herald towers.right now i happy but i'm pissed that the camera turned away before seeing platinum on the bay. :bash:

thanks uptown.....what's that big building right across from the American Airlines Arena??

PARAMOUNT PARK

nice job, uptown. paramount park is huge. hard to say about the design, but it's definitely big.

now how do we get a hold of that pic? i mean, we gotta have it. i wonder if a call or email to arquitectonica would land us that pic? anyone think it'd work? it'd be nice to have a copy of that on my pc. hell, that could be my new desktop background.

I'M HOPING ARQUIT.. UPDATE THERE SITE SOON,WELL IF ANYONE WANTS TO SEE THE HUGE PICTURE ITS ON TV. ITS CHANNEL 9 ON COMCAST AND THE SHOW A RERUN OF THE PAST CITY COMM. MEETING EVERYDAY AT 10 ,BUT PARAMOUNT GOES ON AT LIKE 11:45

11:45pm or am? is there a schedule for it somewhere online?

YEA GO TO THE CITY PAGE AND LOOK FOR THE T.V. WEBPAGE THEY SHOULD HAVE A SCHEDULE.

ON ANOTHER NOTE SKYLINE HAS A HOMEPAGE............... WWW.SKYLINEMARYBRICKELL.COM

^^AM

^ funky music

ALSO paramount edgewater didn't get approved becuase some neighbors got all pissed and said that they wanted to meet with the developers,because this project was to big...so they were scheduled to come back next month

Uptown how are you ever going to graduate and design future 1200 footers for us if you dont go to school and take your math tets???? j/k, very good catch

That's HUGE. It looks like between 750-800'. Man, is that Ten Mus. Pk. to the right of 900? Its so small...

great find uptown but it's really hard to tell which tower is which in the first shot and jzquince69 just think 10 Museum Park is over 500 ft.!

According to that list of ballinboi's the building is 754 ft. tall.

ONLY IT LOOKS CLOSE TO 800

I WILL SAY PP,LOOKS LIKE A WHITE SLAB OF CONCRETE DESIGNED BY REVUELTA

Roark, they're starting to talk bad about your boy again. :wink2:

RD1--ROARK VS UPTOWN=VICTORY UPTOWN
RD2--ROARK VS UPTOWN=.........................

SERIES=1-0

great find uptown, well 900 is said to be like 740 feet, so this is like 15 feet taller,

yet it looks even taller!

Great work Uptown.

Great find! :runaway: We must get a copy of this for our forum

Glad you played hooky to capture these images.

Can you make-up your math exam? Hope you can and you "Ace" it. :naughty:

Thanks again for all your good work!

RD1--ROARK VS UPTOWN=VICTORY UPTOWN
RD2--ROARK VS UPTOWN=......SERIES=1-0Uptown...I appreciate that you are skipping Judge Joe Brown to chime in with some goodness...but c'mon....hows about a Recount:
Uptown said Santa Maria=Jade
Roark said Santa Maria=round ends Jade = square ends
then Roark said square does not equal round
and then the little sarcastic if you can't put the square peg in the square hole.....special end of the school.....little buses ...jokes.
Maybe you were skipping geometry....but let's make a deal....let me know the next time that you plan on skipping school, get the rents to fill out a permission slip, and I'll pick you up and show you Revuelta building or two...with any luck...we can get Magic City to give us a history tour (he is ooozing with knowledge and passion for this city...but doesn't post as much as he should!!), if'n Canes can come along, he can lend some urban planning insight, Don P can lend some engineering ...Everyone is invited!!!! Speaking of Don P, if they still make Don Q...we can do some 151 shots so I can tolerate anyone that thinks that Orlando holds a candle to Miami.
Let's share the knowledge...If you see something I don't please help me understand.

ahh roark i got something here you'll enjoy its your fav.architect

If 900 is only 712' like previously stated on emporis, then Paramount's gotta be 800'. If 900 is that 740' figure, then Paramount's gotta be alot more. Man, Ten looks so small in that pic-- and at over 500' to boot. What a testament to the bulk of those other buildings. Even Marina Blue looks a little small. Imagine that...

So what is the status on Paramount and is there a better pic available? I hope its not going to be a white concrete n' balcony tower.

What is that building to the right of Ten Mus Pk? Is it the Marquis? If so, notice how its the same height as 900 Bisc.

next to ten,is marquis at about 680ft

I have seen the Paramount Park rendering, it is another glass arquitectonica stunner.

oh...cool...that districts lofts-biscayne midrise is a beauty...did the design get approved??:)....damn, I really can't imagine what Biscayne Blvd will look like in 2 to 3 years:)

wow...we forumers can't keep up;) ...Do you remember what it was called?

Re: the pic of Luis Revuelta, I half-expected the man to be drab and white.

it could help if you expanded a little,please.

loool dale

Sorry, for now I am unable to say more.

ahh roark i got something here you'll enjoy its your fav.architect revuelta with his coke bottle glasses :hahaha:Solid!!! I never said he was my favorite, I just said that I appreciate the subtelty of his designs. They are neither generic or boring in my opinion. I noticed that whilst your ole lady was tailgating and driving on center line that you snapped a picture of a Ferrari and a Bentley. Ever notice how their designs are "cookie cutter". Very elegant and they use consistent design elements from one model to the next and from year to year. It's nice to appreciate Ferraris and Bentleys. You can see that there are differences from year to year or model to model, but the more you study, the more your realize that they are distinctive. Personally, I think that is great. You don't have to agree.
I think that if you put together a poll of the last 50 buildings to actually be built in Miami Beach, Miami's CBD/Park West/Biscayne Coridor/Brickell/Miami River and I'm sure you you'd agree that Revuelta is not generic in comparison.
Maybe I'm taking crazy pills, but I think Revuelta is leaps and bounds above most. How about Cohen-Freidman, Encinosa & Associates? Floridian, Yacht Club and Portofino, the Mark, and Brickell on the River?
Not sure who designed the Club with the lovely aluminum railings reminescent of the Motel 6 back in Michigan and that stunning green paint that was mis-mixed at the Home Depot and on sale...or the Vue that was torn between having glass balconies or cheap aluminum, so chose to have both...At least they spared no expense or sense of style with the baby blue paint job.
Not coincidently, the Collection sells those cars that you were photographing and Ugo Columbo, the owner of the Collection, also sells Revueltas.
