Two Roads Development has completed a massive, 20+ hour concrete pour at the 57-story Elysee, as construction prepares to go vertical in Edgewater. The milestone comes following months of piling and excavation subterranean work. A crew of about 75 construction workers were on staff to pour which was orchestrated by general contractor John Moriarty & Associates of Florida. About 20 mixing trucks carrying 260 truckloads rotated in shifts to pour approximately 3,000 cubic yards of concrete weighing more than 5,000 tons into a massive excavated hole for the tower’s concrete mat, which sits on top of nearly 300 pilings reaching depths up to about 150-feet below the ground’s surface.

“Once complete, Elysee will be a retreat in the center of one of the most desirable parts of Miami,” said developer Taylor Collins, managing partner at Two Roads Development. “Elysee’s boutique exclusivity, idyllic bayfront location, commanding views and world-class amenities will brand it as a standout property for a long time to come.”

Elysee is a 57-story bayfront, hyper-luxury condo tower that features 100 half-floor and full-floor residences, located at 788 NE 23rd Street. The building, which rises 648', is designed by world-renowned architect Bernardo Fort-Brescia of Arquitectonica with interiors created by France’s top designer Jean-Louis Deniot. Residences range from three- to five-bedroom layouts measuring between 2,300 SF to 4,000 SF.
