The Residences at 1428 Brickell Floor Plans | Antonio Citterio Solar Tower Guide
The Residences at 1428 Brickell — Floor Plans
At 1428 Brickell Avenue in Miami's financial district, The Residences at 1428 Brickell will rise 70 stories and 861 feet as the world's first luxury high-rise residential tower partially powered by solar energy. Developed by Ytech and designed by ACPV Architects — the Milan-based firm of Antonio Citterio and Patricia Viel — in collaboration with Arquitectonica, with structural engineering by Magnusson Klemencic Associates and general contractor John Moriarty & Associates, the tower houses just 189 fully finished residences across two- to four-bedroom floor plans, two-story residences, and a Penthouse Collection. Foundation drilling was underway as of April 2025 with a $565 million construction loan secured from JPMorgan Chase. The project is more than 60% sold.
What distinguishes The Residences at 1428 Brickell from every other Brickell luxury condo currently under construction is not one differentiator — it is three simultaneously: the Antonio Citterio Italian design language applied at a level of material quality not previously seen in Miami new construction, the Solar Backbone that makes this the world's first solar-powered residential high-rise, and a floor plan program where 25 percent of all 189 residences are two-story homes. Taken together, these three characteristics define a building category that has no direct competitor in the Brickell market.

The 2 and 3 Bedroom Standard Residences
The entry floor plan at 1428 Brickell is a two-bedroom-plus-den, three-bathroom residence at 1,800 square feet of interior space with 424 square feet of terrace — the building's smallest configuration and the most accessible price point in the project at approximately $3 million. Every residence in the building — regardless of floor level or bedroom count — faces directly east toward Biscayne Bay. This is not a building with a range of orientations or a mix of bay-view and city-view floor plans. Antonio Citterio's design specifically positions every principal room in every floor plan to face east, delivering direct Biscayne Bay views and eastern light throughout all 189 residences as a structural floor plan commitment rather than a premium upgrade available only on select floors or corner units.
Three-bedroom configurations range from approximately 2,200 to 3,000 square feet. The building's floor plate density steps down as it rises — five residences per floor on lower levels, transitioning to three residences per floor on upper levels — meaning that upper-floor three-bedroom buyers share their floor with only two neighbors. All residences include ceiling heights of 11 feet minimum in standard configurations, 12-foot-deep terraces with summer kitchens, and the full Antonio Citterio interior package.
The 4 Bedroom Residences and Two-Story Homes
Four-bedroom-plus-den floor plans range from approximately 3,000 to 4,000 square feet. At 1428 Brickell, the four-bedroom tier is where the building's most distinctive floor plan characteristic becomes fully available: the G and H line two-story residences.
25 percent of all 189 residences at 1428 Brickell are two-story homes. This is not a designation reserved for the penthouse collection. Two-story floor plans are distributed throughout the building across standard residential floors, delivering double-height living spaces high above Brickell at bedroom counts and price points that most buyers associate with single-floor high-rise living. The G and H line two-story plans feature 22-foot ceiling heights in primary living areas — double the standard 11-foot ceiling — and are the configurations for which Antonio Citterio's kitchen design includes custom Vaselli cabinetry rather than the Arclinea package standard in smaller units. The Vaselli kitchen, handcrafted in Caldogno, Italy, is the most design-forward element in a building whose entire finish program is already operating at a level that agents who have reviewed the specifications describe as unprecedented in Miami new construction.
The Penthouse Collection — 4,000 to 10,000 Square Feet
The Penthouse Collection at 1428 Brickell occupies the building's upper floors with interiors ranging from 4,000 to 10,000 square feet. Additional penthouses begin at $8 million and step up through multiple configurations to the building's crown. All penthouses in the collection include 30-foot ceiling heights, the full custom Vaselli kitchen specification, oversized terraces with summer kitchens, and the complete Antonio Citterio primary bathroom package — sculptural freestanding bathtubs handcrafted in Rapolano, Italy, travertine marble floors and split vanities, and glass-enclosed showers at a scale appropriate to the penthouse's proportions. Pricing for penthouse residences begins at $8 million, with the crown delivering the building's most significant floor plan at $60 million.
The Crown Penthouse — $60 Million
At the absolute top of 1428 Brickell, the crown penthouse is the building's most extraordinary floor plan:
- 7 bedrooms, 9 bathrooms
- Approximately 10,000 square feet of interior space
- 30-foot ceiling heights throughout principal living areas
- Two expansive terraces overlooking Biscayne Bay
- Custom Vaselli kitchen at penthouse scale
- Sculptural freestanding travertine bathtubs in primary and guest suites
- Pre-wired smart home control of lighting, audio, window treatments, and climate
- Positioned at 861 feet — among the highest residential floor plates in the southeastern United States
- Asking price: $60 million
The crown penthouse sits atop the amenity crown at floors 68 through 70 — the top three floors of the building are dedicated entirely to over 80,000 square feet of amenities, meaning that the penthouse residences are positioned above even the amenity level, at the absolute summit of the structure.
The Solar Backbone — What It Means for Floor Plan Owners
The Solar Backbone at 1428 Brickell is the architectural feature that gives the building its historical distinction — and it has direct implications for every floor plan owner regardless of bedroom count or floor level.
500 photovoltaic-integrated glass panels are embedded along the building's west-facing façade, spanning nearly 20,000 square feet of energy-producing glass. The system generates approximately 175,000 kilowatt-hours of clean energy per year — enough to meaningfully offset the building's common area energy consumption — while simultaneously reducing 4,700 tons of COâ‚‚ emissions and saving the equivalent of approximately 3,000 barrels of oil annually.
Two design consequences for floor plan buyers are worth understanding:
First, the Solar Backbone is on the west façade — not the east. Every residence faces east toward Biscayne Bay, and the floor-to-ceiling glass on the bay-facing side is standard clear glass delivering unobstructed bay views and morning light. The photovoltaic integration is on the opposite face, which means the solar technology does not affect the view quality or light quality experienced within any floor plan from its primary orientation.
Second, the photovoltaic glass is integrated into the window panels themselves rather than mounted on a rooftop array — making the solar system structurally invisible from the building's interior and from the primary eastern view elevation. From the bay, 1428 Brickell reads as a slender, curved glass tower. From the west on Brickell Avenue, the Solar Backbone gives the building a distinctive shimmer that sets it apart from every other tower on this stretch of the financial district.
The Antonio Citterio Interior Standard — Why It Matters
Antonio Citterio and Patricia Viel's ACPV Architects is the Milan-based firm whose residential and hospitality portfolio spans some of the most critically acclaimed interior environments in Europe. Citterio's design philosophy — described consistently as "warm minimalism" — rejects the chrome-and-marble maximalism common in Miami luxury construction in favor of deeply considered material selection, earthy tones, and Italian craftsmanship that ages without dating.
At 1428 Brickell, every standard residence is delivered with:
- Travertine marble flooring throughout all interiors
- Double-door entry with private foyer
- Floor-to-ceiling glass windows with eastern Biscayne Bay exposure on all principal rooms
- 12-foot-deep terraces with summer kitchens
- Arclinea kitchen cabinetry handcrafted in Caldogno, Italy (standard residences) / custom Vaselli kitchen (G and H lines and penthouses)
- Fully integrated Gaggenau appliance suite including paneled refrigerator, paneled freezer, wine refrigerator, convection oven, steam combination oven, and built-in coffee machine
- Glass enclosure for kitchen privacy during catering or cooking — a feature unique among Miami luxury towers
- Sculptural freestanding travertine bathtubs handcrafted in Rapolano, Italy
- Primary bathrooms with split travertine marble vanities
- Oversized travertine showers
- Ceiling heights from 11 to 30 feet depending on floor plan configuration
- Fully finished delivery including flooring, closets, lighting, and window treatments — no interior build-out required
- Pre-wired smart home control of lighting, audio, window treatments, and temperature via smartphone or tablet
- LEED certification building-wide
The glass kitchen enclosure — allowing residents to fully close the kitchen off from entertaining spaces when catering or cooking — is a Citterio-specific design decision that reflects the building's private club positioning. No comparable feature exists in any other luxury tower currently under construction in Brickell.
The Amenity Crown — 80,000 Square Feet on Floors 68 to 70
The top three floors of 1428 Brickell — floors 68 through 70, at approximately 850 to 861 feet above Brickell — are dedicated entirely to resident amenities. This is not a standard amenity level. The 80,000-square-foot amenity crown at this altitude produces a lifestyle program that is genuinely without parallel in Brickell:
- Three pools including a crown pool at 850 feet above sea level — among the highest swimming pools in any residential tower in the eastern United States
- 10,000-square-foot gym
- Two-story wine and art lounge
- Private dining room with a custom Vaselli kitchen — the same specification as the building's finest residential kitchens, applied to the private dining venue
- Juice and wellness bar
- Immersive spa with aquatic therapy and personal training
- Office suites
- Children's recreation center
- Fully furnished Antonio Citterio-designed guest suites for residents' exclusive use
- Library lounge with coffee, tea, champagne, and food service
- Impressive porte-cochère arrival with lush urban garden
The placement of all amenities at floors 68 through 70 — above the standard residential floors and accessible only by dedicated elevator from the residential levels — creates a private club atmosphere at altitude that is architecturally distinct from the ground-level or mid-tower amenity decks found in virtually every other building in the neighborhood.
