List of tallest buildings in Miami

Miami is the second-most populous city in the U.S. state of Florida, and its metropolitan area, with a population of 6.4 million, is the largest in the state. Miami has the third-largest skyline in the United States, after New York City and Chicago, and the fourth largest in North America.^[4] It has over 400 high-rises, 77 of which are taller than 492 feet (150 m), with six more that are topped out. The tallest building in the city is the 85-story Panorama Tower, completed in 2017, which rises 868 feet (265 m) in Miami's Brickell district. The top ten tallest buildings in Florida are located in Miami, and the top twenty are all in the city's metropolitan area.

The first significant tall building in Miami is considered to be the six-story Burdine's Department Store, built in 1912, while the 17-story, Mediterranean Revival Freedom Tower, completed in 1925, is the city's best-known early skyscraper. For much of the 20th century, Miami had a relatively modest skyline compared to other major American cities. Beginning in the mid-1990s, Miami underwent a large residential high-rise boom that transformed its skyline, and expanded it to the Brickell and Edgewater neighborhoods. Development accelerated in the mid-2000s, until the Great Recession brought an end to the boom. The skyscraper boom resumed in the mid-2010s, owing to the city's continued population growth and investment, and has continued into the 2020s, with Miami overtaking Houston as the city with the largest skyline in the southern United States.

The rate of construction in Miami has been cited as an example of Manhattanization.^[5] Of the 73 completed and topped out skyscrapers taller than 492 ft (150 m) in Miami, only five—less than one twelfth—were built before 2000. Miami is among the fastest-growing skylines in the United States and in North America, with over ten such buildings under construction as of 2025. Due to the proximity and alignment of the runways of Miami International Airport, there is a height limit of 1,049 feet (320 m) above sea level in the city. The under construction Waldorf Astoria Miami will meet this limit when it is completed in 2028. The 98-story hotel is one of several supertall skyscrapers, buildings taller than 984 ft (300 m), that are approved in Miami, which are all bounded by the limit.

The city's main skyline is located in Greater Downtown Miami which runs north to south along the city's coast on Biscayne Bay, originating from the Central Business District along the Miami River and extending to Brickell in the south, and northwards to the Park West, Arts & Entertainment, and Edgewater districts. It also includes the small triangular island of Brickell Key, just off the coast from Brickell. The skyline is mostly bound to the west by Interstate 95. Unlike many American cities, Miami's skyline is dominated by residential, hotel, and mixed-use towers. Another cluster of high-rises sits in Coconut Grove, southwest of downtown. Several high-rise clusters have risen throughout the metropolitan area, notably around Douglas Road station, and in the nearby cities of Coral Gables, Dadeland, Fort Lauderdale, West Palm Beach, and Sunny Isles Beach, the latter of which has 14 skyscrapers taller than 492 ft (150 m).^[6]
