830 Brickell Achieves LEED Gold Certification

830 Brickell has officially earned LEED Gold certification, further securing its place as a highly sustainable, Class A+ office tower. Rising 724 feet in Downtown Miami, the dynamic, reinforced concrete structure is enclosed by a kinetic façade that moves with wind and light.

Our structural engineers designed the 57-story high-rise, addressing such challenges as an off-center shear wall core—particularly challenging in a hurricane zone—and expansive cantilevers that create large, open office spaces.

Among other sustainable features, we used high-strength concrete to create slimmer structural elements, reducing materials costs and adding efficiency. The tower also incorporates energy-efficient HVAC systems, which reduces the typically high cooling energy in the very warm region.

Developed by OKO Group and designed by Adrian Smith + Gordon Gill Architects and Revuelta, 830 Brickell has also achieved WiredScore and Energy-Efficient Envelope certifications.

Our structural engineering team was led by Managing Principal Luis Ramirez, PE, SI, FRSE, and Senior Associate Milo B. Adams, PE. The head of our façade and building envelope team, Principal Rok Lee, AIA, provided building maintenance consulting.
