About Brickell Key II
One of the great pleasures of Brickell Key Miami is the constant contiguity to water, situated on a complex line of coast cut up by tributaries, a series of causeways link the city together.
Outdoor attractions continue with magnificent architecture; a staggering feat of city renovation has produced one of the most complete Art Deco monuments in the world, with entire streets of pastel colored 30’s buildings perfectly restored. Shopping is definitely a local attraction, cute boutiques are as funky as clubs and fusionists parade the streets.

Brickell Key Miami – History
The history of Brickell Key Miami and the Brickell Key condos can be traced to 1896, when Henry Flagler had a 9-foot deep channel dug from the mouth of the Miami River. In the process, Mr. Flagler created an off-shore property comprised of two small islands. Brickell Key Miami is an artificial triangular island at the mouth of the Miami River in Miami, Florida, United States. It is in Miami’s Brickell neighborhood. Brickell Key is occasionally referred to as “Claughton Island”, in honor of Edward Claughton who purchased the land that forms Brickell Key today.

In 1943, an investor, Edward N. Claughton, Sr. acquired the islands of Brickell Key and eventually purchased additional bay bottom land to combine them to a 44-acre triangle-shaped tract separated from the mansions of Miami’s fashionable Brickell Avenue by only a few hundred feet of water. In the late 1970’s, Swire Properties purchased most of the island property from the Claughton, and began to put into place a master plan that would ultimately transform it into one of the most unique island communities in the world. In recent years the Brickell Key area has come to the forefront of international business and luxury living.

Desire for waterfront property and Brickell’s emergence as Miami’s cosmopolitan center have encouraged considerable development and even grander plans for the future. Certainly the significance of being the second largest booming international financial center in the United States will further stimulate Miami’s entire downtown area and lure new residents and business alike. Brickell just as diversity has always been the key to Miami’s growth and success, so too is it the key to Brickell Key. Be it the wealth of cultural influences, the many international business interests represented, or even the simple contrast of the many modern office structures with quiet shady streets, Brickell is a dynamic area that the world is recognizing as a leader for the next century.
