This place is a disaster waiting to happen. The car parking blocks are not bolted in. Any crazy idiot can lift them up and throw them over the edge of the structure. Typical Miami idioacracy. Style over subtance.

“So much more could have been done with the form and the exterior cladding.”

I think I saw Herzog quoted as saying they designed it to be just bones without any hint of cladding. That way it stands apart from everything else. Apparently they have office spaces for lease too, not just retail – http://1111lincolnroad.blogspot.com/

this shits getting built in front of my window view of my office. Horrible i used to enjoy looking at skanky dressed girls walking up and down the plaza now i see bulldozers moving dirt around, eventually i’ll be staring at a parking garage. As an Architecture mayor i can say this building is a truly poor design. It has some bad proportions and very poor aesthetics to say the least. So much more could have been done with the form and the exterior cladding. Just look at the building across the street.

It does rain in Miami.

have you watched the animation? the top floor is an open-air nightclub apparently – it’s funny.

I like it better than those weird bastardised Guggenheim carparks everywhere else.

I am a fan of this carpark is what I am saying…
