Does anyone else agree with me that this pool is going to be in the shade most of the day with this wall of buildings to the South. The Miami Herald contemplated today that this might become the worlds largest casino project. Plans include four hotels, two condominium towers, more than 50 restaurants and bars and a luxury retail shopping mall. The casino itself will be the size of 4 Super-Sized Target stores says the Herald.
If you think the baseball team pushed us around, you ain't seen nothin' yet. This behemoth Casino will own the City of Miami and the County with a flood of campaign money. Don't believe me on how this is a game-changer: Go to the District 2 debate/forum tonight. They are all gong-ho on this project. Will any of them have the guts to say otherwise? Just ask them all tonight.
Looking from the water the American Airlines Arena can be seen on the left. BTW That shadow on the pool would engulf it.
Picture at top, note the dwarfed Arsht Center on the right.
The Miami Museum of Art in Bicentennial Park is on the left.
View from the west, Arsht Center's Knight Concert Hall in foreground. And look at their depiction of Watson Island, it looks like little Miami Beach. The City will be forever changed. Are you ready?
The perfect storm: A function in 3 venues the same night.
WATCH THE VIDEO.

They'll put a fake sun up somewhere. Cat 5 hurricane, would do that design just about right.
Don't the buildings look like fingers?
Thank you as always for alerting us of these monstrous and calamitous projects. I just watched the video. Bernard Ft. Brescia of Arquitectonica is so full of crap, you can see it in his eyeballs. He says the project was inspired by nature and by corals. If you do a huge, energy consumptive traffic-generating project at the edge of a fragile ecosystem, no amount of bio-mimicry will make it "green" or ecological. Bernard, stop trying to manipulate people with your spin on things! Why won't Arquitectonica just go away? Haven't they ruined enough of our city already?
No iPhone or iPad super graphics on this building?
It looks like an attack of killer jelly fish -- the Men o War who ate Miami! yikes
After the Port of Miami "Deep Dredge" these "coral-inspired" buildings might be the only corals Miami has left. And those in the tanks at the Science Museum by the Bay - Aquatic Preserve I mean, not that anyone in power cares.
Aint pretty. The way things go in Miami, Genting will get their middle brow casino at the Omni and this monstrosity will never ever get built. If I'm a pimp on Biscayne I'm thinking, hot dignity.
..buildings are too swirly-lookin'. If I have a couple of drinks, I think just looking at them would make me dizzy.
At least, this is what it looks like from the picture you posted.
THIS IS AN ABORTION ON THE MIAMI SKYLINE TO ALL POINTS----NORTH, SOUTH, EAST, WEST. WHAT AN INSULT TO NEIGHBORING STRUCTURES. IT IS A MILK WEED (A PLANT OUT OF PLACE)
FERTILIZED BY GREED INVASION ON TURF WAITING FOR POLITICANS TO
CHOW DOWN ON.
ANON
F@#k the casino whores and the Republican legislature that will let them through. Where is Lynda Bell and her charismatic Christians on this one?
Lynda said she didn't personally support gambling, didn't rule out support for it.
I can't believe all the ignorant comments here. The buildings look great, wow shade in Miami, no one wants that???
I'm a business owner and this is exactly what Miami needs! Then Miami will be the Tourist spot with everything!!!
I have yet to see a bigger abomination. It looks as if a giant alien went to the bathroom in downtown Miami. If Miamians stand for this, they deserve all this and more!
