Miami's Newest Condo Complex Those of us who sell luxury condos are expecting to hear 
of the launch of EPIC MIAMI, which is simply a condo complex that stands out above the rest. 

The builders are Ugo Columbo's CMC and Lionstone.  Hands-down, these two companies are
the "elite" of Miami's residential and hotel construction business.
Epic has priced 1 bedroom units in the high $470Ks, and can take you all the way up to a 
$5M, 4000sf penthouse with a pool.  It's a luxury building in every possible way.  When you
add in the amenities (like a 6600sf spa and 4000sf gym), this becomes an ideal example of
what luxury living is.  The complex is strategically located on the water and just steps away
from the planned WHOLE FOODS MARKET.

Alvaro Santistevan - BRICKELL POST

History is about to repeat itself. In 1957, on bay front land rich in Indian heritage, Miami's first mixed-use building, the Epic Miami - aka DuPont Plaza, was erected, cementing itself over everything Tequesta. Now, the development that in its time was billed as the first “three purpose building,” housing the International Architect’s Bureau of Building Products, a 14-story office building and a 301-room hotel, is coming down. One of downtown's newest mixed-use projects, Epic Miami - Dupont Towers, is slated to become the next occupant of 300 Biscayne Blvd. Way, one of Miami’s prime pieces of real estate.

When the building on the north side of the mouth of the
Miami River implodes in clouds of gray soot, all traces of the once classy Dupont Tarleton Hotel will disappear. Few will mourn its passing. The building was never architecturally significant, however innovative it may have been in its heyday, and it has little legendary value in the eyes of local historians. The history came much earlier.

Before the
Dupont Plaza, before the birth of the City of Miami, the land was a trading post for Seminole Indians. Archaeologist Bob Carr has already uncovered abundant evidence of that fact through excavations in the parking lot next to the Dupont—a site that will soon become Metropolitan Miami.  His collection of Tequesta relics from the area includes pottery shards anywhere from 500 to 2,000 years old, “all in very disturbed condition.”   Although the Dupont property is historically significant, Carr thinks any remaining relics will be in fragile condition.

“It was an area rich in artifacts, but when they built the
Dupont Plaza, they dug a basement,” he explains. “What we don’t know is if any [artifacts] survived, so we are going to be monitoring it and if we see any evidence, we will be doing additional excavation there.” He points out that less than half of the Dupont parcel is on original land, the rest was filled in by material dredged from the bottom of the bay in the early 1900s.  Historian Paul George says that after the Tequestas, the land housed two slave plantations in the 1830s, as well as the army’s Fort Dallas in the 1840s and 50s. Additionally, three Jesuit missions once existed just north and west of the Dupont and Miami
pioneer Julia Tuttle built her house just west of the site in the 1890s.

When the Dupont went up, it was a $10 million one-of-a-kind building. Now it’s viewed as ugly architecture.

“It really personifies resort architecture. I’ve always hated it,” said George, who especially dislikes the fact that no space was left on the riverfront to enjoy the view; instead, the building hugged the river.  Regardless, many Miamians fondly recall the Dupont’s halcyon days as the place to stay in downtown
Miami
.

“I would not say that it is historical,” remarks historian Arva Moore Parks, “but when it opened it was considered a really big deal. There weren’t a whole lot of hotels in Miami and it was a very fancy hotel when it was built.”

Over the years a number of businesses occupied the office portion of the building, including the City of Miami’s law department, labor relations department and budget department.

Today, the building sticks out like a sore thumb on the ever-improving face of downtown
Miami. Its demolition—which has already started inside and should be finalized later this year will make way for two luxury towers: a 48 story building with 632 residences, 62 hotel rooms and 869 parking spaces, and a 60 story building with 596 residential units and 621 parking spaces. The project also includes 5,000 square feet of retail and 24,600 square feet of restaurant/lounge space. Additionally, the development will feature a public waterfront walkway that would connect to the riverwalk planned for One Miami, the project next door.

The Dupont Towers is a joint undertaking by CMC Group, composed of Ugo Colombo (developer of the exclusive Bristol Tower
