Biscayne building in historic district of Downtown Miami, Florida, USA
With its construction started in 1925, the Biscayne Building has 14 floors and is contemporary with Miami's founding father, Henry Morrison Flagler, who was the one that made possible the Florida East Coast railway's expansion, a railway that is still running to this day. It is situated in Downtown Miami, on a street that named after Flagler. At the time when it was built, the building was one of the tallest in downtown Miami; it lies close to the Miami-Dade County Courthouse, which makes it a very attractive office rental site for attorneys and government agencies. Another interesting fact is that average tenant occupancy exceeds 17 years. Being an important historical building, it has become a Dade Heritage Trust inductee in 2005 and is part of the Miami Historic Landmark Building roster. The Biscayne Building was previously leased to the Bank of Bay Biscayne and the FBI, where it had an office for J. Edgar Hoover. The building was acquired in 2016 by New York developer Moishe Mana.
