The history of Brickell Key and the Brickell key condos can be traced to 1896, when Henry Flagler had a 9-foot deep channel dug from the mouth of the Miami River. In the process, Mr. Flagler created an off-shore property comprised of two small islands.
In 1943, an investor, Edward N. Claughton, Sr. acquired the islands of Brickell Key and eventually purchased additional bay bottom land to combine them to a 44-acre triangle-shaped tract separated from the mansions of Miami’s fashionable Brickell Avenue by only a few hundred feet of water.
In the late 1970′s, Swire Properties purchased most of the island property from the Claughton, and began to put into place a master plan that would ultimately transform it into one of the most unique island communities in the world. In recent years the Brickell Key area has come to the forefront of international business and luxury living.
Desire for waterfront property and Brickell’s emergence as Miami’s cosmopolitan center have encouraged considerable development and even grander plans for the future. Certainly the significance of being the second largest booming international financial center in the United States will further stimulate Miami’s entire downtown area and lure new residents and business alike.
Brickell just as diversity has always been the key to Miami’s growth and success, so too is it the key to Brickell’s. Be it the wealth of cultural influences, the many international business interests represented, or even the simple contrast of the many modern office structures with quiet shady streets, Brickell is a dynamic area that the world is recognizing as a leader for the next century.
