Bentley Residences Miami's reinforced concrete superstructure reached 7 floors above grade, confirming that the world's first Bentley-branded residential tower has transitioned from its extraordinary foundation phase into active vertical construction. The 62-story, 716-foot tower at 18401 Collins Avenue in Sunny Isles Beach, developed by Dezer Development and designed by Sieger Suarez Architects in collaboration with Bentley Motors, is advancing at one floor every five to six working days. Aerial photographs show a broad circular floor plate with dense rebar assemblies, curved perimeter formwork, shear walls, and the central core rising around the cylindrical massing that will define the completed tower. The current vertical phase follows the record-setting mat foundation pour of November 2025 — a 36-hour, 20,000-cubic-yard operation that stands as the largest residential foundation pour in Florida history. The 216 residences will each feature the Dezervator sky garage system, private pools, summer kitchens, and Miele-outfitted kitchens with 3–4 car in-unit garages. Completion is targeted for 2028.
Bentley Residences at 7 floors above grade is the most advanced automotive-branded residential tower under construction in Florida — and its vertical milestone is meaningful in the context of the broader Sunny Isles Beach automotive luxury corridor that Dezer Development pioneered with the Porsche Design Tower and is now extending with Bentley. The cylindrical massing now rising at 18401 Collins Avenue will, upon completion, become one of the most visually distinctive structures on the South Florida oceanfront — a differentiated silhouette that reinforces the Bentley brand's positioning in a market where photogenic tower profiles increasingly function as marketing assets independent of the amenity program. At 716 feet and 62 stories, Bentley Residences will stand among the tallest oceanfront residential towers in Sunny Isles Beach upon its 2028 completion.
What milestone was reached and when?
Construction has gone vertical on Bentley Residences Miami at 18401 Collins Avenue in Sunny Isles Beach, with the reinforced concrete superstructure now standing 7 floors above grade as of May 2026. The tower is advancing at approximately one floor every five to six working days.
What is the project and who developed it?
The world's first Bentley-branded residential tower — a 62-story, 716-foot structure delivering 216 condominium residences at 18401 Collins Avenue in Sunny Isles Beach. Developed by Dezer Development (Gil Dezer) and designed by Sieger Suarez Architects in collaboration with Bentley Motors. Completion is slated for 2028.
What makes this tower architecturally and technically unique?
Each residence includes a private in-unit sky garage accessed via the patented Dezervator vehicle elevator system — transporting residents and their cars directly from the arrival level to their private garage within the unit. The emerging structure already reveals a cylindrical massing with a broad circular floor plate and curved perimeter formwork visible in recent aerial photography. The foundation was a record-setting event in its own right: a 36-hour mat foundation pour in November 2025 placed 20,000 cubic yards of concrete across 2,100 truckloads — the largest residential construction pour in Florida and the second-largest foundation pour in the United States.
What do residences include?
Three- to five-bedroom layouts with floor-to-ceiling glass, open-concept layouts, expansive terraces with summer kitchens, private swimming pools, outdoor showers, and three- to four-car in-unit sky garages. Kitchens feature Miele appliances and Italian-designed cabinetry; primary bathrooms include soaking tubs, custom vanities, and private sauna rooms.
What amenities are planned?
Over 20,000 square feet of amenity space including Proper English by Todd English (four-time James Beard Award-winning chef's first residents-only restaurant concept), a fitness center, spa, beauty salon, cinema, whiskey bar, cigar lounge, pet spa, landscaped beach club, and oceanfront pool deck with cabanas.
