Brickell Key One is a 22-story tower on Brickell Key, Miami's man-made island in Biscayne Bay, developed by Swire Properties and designed by J. Scott Architect. Completed in 1982, it was one of the island's earliest residential towers and sits within walking distance of the waterfront promenade, Mary Brickell Village, and the Brickell financial district skyline. Residents have access to tennis courts, a pool, and 24-hour gated security typical of the island's gated residential enclave.

Why Florida condo buildings need a closer look

When you buy into a condo building that's 15 or more years old — anywhere in the US — you should expect by default that an assessment, or several, is in effect or on the way: roof repairs, elevator replacement, repaving, facade work. Buildings age on a schedule, and the bill lands on the owners: often hundreds of dollars a month on top of your mortgage, HOA fee, taxes, and insurance. The unit listing rarely mentions any of it.

In Florida, the stakes for older buildings are higher still. Since the 2021 Surfside tragedy, state law requires milestone structural inspections at 30 years (25 in some coastal areas), Structural Integrity Reserve Studies, and — critically — bars associations from waiving reserve funding for structural components, ending decades of artificially low fees. Add the state's insurance surge, and many older buildings carry obligations that never appear in a listing. None of this makes an older building a bad purchase — but the difference between a well-run 1970s tower and a struggling one can be tens of thousands of dollars per unit. That's the question our building intelligence answers.
