Shawmut, Global City Development, and Gilu Development have broken ground on Tech Tower, a new 23-story world-class workforce housing development located in Miami-Dade’s City of Sweetwater.

The groundbreaking at Tech Tower, at 10921 SW 7^th Street, marks a major milestone in Sweetwater’s growth, providing a solution to the surge in housing demand. Tech Tower will include 517 high-end apartments along with 28,197 square feet of amenity space and 2,923 square feet of ground-floor retail space.

“We are proud to be breaking ground on Tech Tower, our third project in the Sweetwater area. This development will further elevate the neighborhood and provide world-class housing for professionals and families and generate significant benefits to the local community including additional retail,” said Brian Pearl, principal and co-founder of Global City Development.

Thoughtfully designed by Arquitectonica, Tech Tower will enhance the neighborhood’s vibrancy while providing high-quality workforce housing options. The building will feature concierge-level services and amenities including a yoga lawn, fitness studios, resident lounge, rooftop pool deck, and club room.

“We’re excited to help bring this development to the Sweetwater community. As Shawmut leads the construction of Tech Tower, we’re proud to help bring workforce housing to this important corridor of Miami-Dade,” said Alexis Leal, Shawmut’s head of Florida.
