About 500 Brickell
Developed by The Related Group · Designed by Arquitectonica (lobby/common areas: Michael Wolk Design Associates)
500 Brickell is a pair of 42-story twin towers — 500 Brickell East (500 Brickell Ave) and 500 Brickell West (55 SE 6th St) — developed by The Related Group and designed by Arquitectonica, with lobby and common areas by Michael Wolk Design Associates. Both delivered in 2008.
The towers share the heated rooftop pool and sundeck on the 42nd floor of the East tower, which West residents can also use, and each has an 11th-floor pool deck with an infinity-edge pool and daybeds. The West tower adds its own theater room, wine cellar, sports room and valet.
Both sit in the financial-district core of Brickell, offering a straightforward, accessibly priced 1- to 3-bedroom option among the neighborhood’s 2000s-era towers. Each tower has its own MLS listings; this page combines both, and the recent sales table shows which tower each unit is in.
What Carlos Says
500 Brickell West is a solid, no-surprises option for a first Brickell purchase or a straightforward rental investment -- it doesn't try to be a luxury flagship, and it's priced accordingly. Good building to compare against Brickell Heights and The Bond if you're shopping this price tier.
Building Fees & Assessments
MLS listings for 500 Brickell have shown a median association fee around $1.30/sqft/month -- shown per square foot, not as a flat dollar figure, since that's comparable across unit sizes rather than skewed by whichever units happen to be listed right now. This is a point-in-time reference, not a live figure, and can change over time. Confirm the current fee for a specific unit before making an offer.
Specific reserve fund balances, pending special assessments, and financial statements aren't public MLS data -- request them directly from the condo association or your agent before making an offer.
Rental Potential
See the live "Monthly rental from" figure above for 500 Brickell's current lowest asking rent, and the market snapshot's closed-lease count and median rent for actual rental demand over the trailing 12 months -- both update automatically, unlike a number written here. Specific rental rules -- minimum lease term, rentals allowed per year, and whether short-term/Airbnb-style rentals are permitted -- are set by the condo association and vary by building. Verify current rental restrictions directly with the association before buying as an investment.
