BI Group USA's Parkside Residences project in Brickell has cleared its second floor, with the eight-story wellness-focused condo-hotel now visibly rising on the neighborhood skyline as of September 24, 2026.
What exactly was built at Parkside Residences by September 24, 2026?
Construction crews at 1741 SW 2nd Avenue completed the second-floor concrete pour on September 24, 2026, placing 664 cubic yards of concrete across approximately 26,200 square feet of structural slab. That milestone marks the transition from below-grade and podium work into the tower's vertical rise — the point at which a project becomes visible to passersby and signals momentum to the broader development community.

Who is building Parkside Residences, and why does it matter for Miami?
BI Group USA, the North American subsidiary of BI Group — described as Central Asia's largest developer — is delivering Parkside Residences as its first project on U.S. soil. The entry of a developer of that scale into the Miami market signals that Brickell's draw as an international real estate destination extends well beyond the Americas and Western Europe.
- Architect Kobi Karp designed the 187-unit building
- The project is positioned as a wellness-focused condo-hotel
- BI Group's North American arm, BI Group USA, is leading development
What is the construction timeline for Parkside Residences?
BI Group USA has scheduled the building's topping-out — the placement of the final structural element — for before the end of 2026, with full delivery to buyers and hotel operators targeted for the first quarter of 2028. Reaching the second floor by late September 2026 puts the project on a pace consistent with that year-end topping-out goal, assuming concrete pours and trades continue without significant weather or supply-chain interruptions.
What will Parkside Residences look like when complete?
The finished structure will stand eight stories tall and contain 187 units operating under a condo-hotel model, meaning individual units can be sold to private buyers while remaining available for short-term rental when owners are not in residence. The wellness programming embedded in the building's concept — designed by Kobi Karp — is intended to differentiate Parkside Residences from the broader wave of luxury residential towers that have reshaped Brickell over the past decade.
