St. Regis Residences Brickell

Neighborhood dynamics

The project sits at the southern end of Brickell, on the waterfront side of Brickell Avenue. That is a different fabric from Brickell’s financial core: tower density drops, the street quietens, and an established residential neighbourhood begins. This difference between two addresses sharing a neighbourhood name is the variable most often missed when comparing Brickell listings.

The site is bayfront and, by the developer’s own account, spans three waterfront acres. The number of remaining parcels on Brickell Avenue with uninterrupted water frontage at this scale is limited, which means the question of view permanence has a relatively strong answer here — the risk of a neighbouring parcel one day building in front of you is lower than for a tower on an inland block.

The location is not walking distance to the financial core but a short drive; the Brickell City Centre and Mary Brickell Village axis is a few minutes north. Daily life still draws on Brickell’s amenities, while the building itself sits one step back from the noise of the avenue. For a user who wants to be in the city without waking up inside it, that is the balance being described.

The beach is still not here. Brickell is waterfront but not shoreline; the ocean is a drive away. Water frontage means views and a marina, not beach life — a distinction worth settling before a purchase decision.

The neighbourhood’s long-term risk is construction density across Brickell generally. Even if a waterfront parcel’s view is comparatively protected, the number of towers nearby affects traffic, infrastructure and day-to-day comfort throughout the construction period. Delivery is estimated for 2027; what will rise nearby before then is read from zoning records, not from building documents.

The investor’s view

The project is under construction with delivery estimated for 2027 — the NEAREST delivery date among the four featured projects in this guide. A short wait in pre-construction means two things: capital stays committed for less time, and use or rental begins earlier after delivery. Against that, a short timeline also means the price has largely exhausted its pre-construction discount.

Sources conflict on the floor and unit counts in the fact sheet, and we are not hiding it: the developer, Integra Investments, states 48 stories and 154 residences on its own project page, while Florida YIMBY reports 50 stories and 152 residences. The fact sheet uses the developer’s figure. Differences of this kind are normal in pre-construction — floor plans and unit combinations change as a project develops — but the floor and number of the residence you buy are what the contract says, not what the press says.

No price band has been published by the developer, so you will not find a figure on this page. Starting prices circulating on portals are not the developer’s statement but information given by sales representatives against inventory at that moment; in pre-construction that number shifts within weeks as floors, exposures and remaining stock change. Ask for current pricing together with the inventory list — a single "starting price" tells you nothing in this segment.

The payment schedule and HOA fees are also unpublished. In a hotel-branded building, fees are structurally higher than in a building without a brand licence: front desk, housekeeping, security and concierge staffing are operating expenses. That is not a flaw but part of what is being bought — though in any yield calculation it is usually the largest deduction from gross rent.

Three points need to be settled before contract in any hotel-branded residence: whether the unit is included in the hotel rental pool and, if so, how revenue sharing is structured; which services are inside the HOA fee and which are charged separately; and the term of the brand licence together with its termination conditions. The third is the most frequently skipped: if the licence ends, the building’s name, its operator and therefore its positioning on the secondary market can change.

On resale, this project’s comparative strength is that a reference exists. The St. Regis name is recognised on the secondary market, and the RAMSA signature is a separately trackable variable on the architectural side. The missing "comparable building" reference that weighs on an unbranded tower is partly present here — though every branded building still has its own fee structure and its own rental rules, so the reference gives you a direction, not a price.
