Which building by Zaha Hadid in Miami is a residential skyscraper?
Answer
One Thousand Museum
Answer
One Thousand Museum
One Thousand Museum is Zaha Hadid’s residential skyscraper in Miami.
Located at 1000 Biscayne Boulevard across from Museum Park, One Thousand Museum is a high-rise residential condominium in downtown Miami. Construction began in 2015, the tower topped out in February 2018, and it was completed in 2019. It rises 62 stories and reaches roughly 707 feet.
The design began under Zaha Hadid and was developed by Zaha Hadid Architects in association with the Miami firm O’Donnell Dannwolf Partners. Its most recognizable feature is a curving exoskeleton that wraps around the glass façade. Made from about 5,000 glass-fibre-reinforced-concrete pieces, the exoskeleton also helps reduce the need for interior columns.
The building contains 84 residences, including duplex and full-floor units, and is sometimes called the “Scorpion Tower” because of its sculptural profile. Brickell City Centre is a large mixed-use development, not this Hadid-designed residential tower; the other listed choices are separate Miami buildings.
