New Renderings Released for Hilton Hotel Concept at Okan Tower
The projected Hilton Hotel inside the Okan Tower has just released new renderings.
Okan Tower recently underwent thorough piling tests, as required by the city’s building ordinance for extremely tall structures. The pile drilling phase has begun, and the developer declared, after all, the pilings passed their testing successfully. The foundation work’s contractor is named Jacob Companies Inc on permits issued by Miami’s Building Department. Ant Yapi Construction, a Turkish company with a Miami office, and Civic Construction, a Miami-based company, are the general contractors for Okan Tower.
Okan Tower, a mixed-use development with 70 stories and a tulip-shaped design that is destined to become a landmark in Downtown Miami, has revealed a new exterior rendering. The 902-foot towering megaplex, which was created by Okan Group and Behar Font & Partners, is situated at 555 North Miami Avenue at the intersection of Miami’s shoreline, with great dining, entertainment, and culture. A Hilton Hotel will be the development’s focal point, and there will be a variety of upscale facilities available in the homes.
When Okan Tower is finished, it will include more than 900,000 square feet of space, including a 64,000 square foot “Class A” office building, a 316-key Hilton Miami Bayfront Hotel, 163 Sky Residences with amenities solely for owners, 236 Short-Term Rental Residences powered by Hilton Hotels & Resorts, and 236 such residences. The development is slated to grow to be one of Miami’s tallest structures.
According to the architect’s website, the Okan Tower’s delicate profile was modeled after the tulip in honor of the company’s Turkish roots, where the tulip is the national flower.

Okan Tower Promo Video Released Ahead of U.S. Sales Launch
Ahead of its U.S. launch date, Turkish developer Okan Group has released a promo video for its upcoming mixed-purpose development called Okan Tower. The video is in Turkish but it includes a number of never-before-seen renderings of the 70-story tower. For additional information about this exciting project, read our previous blog post about the sales launch for Okan Tower.
Turkish Developer Okan Group Launches Okan Tower in Downtown Miami
Turkish developer and leading enterprise Okan Group announced yesterday the official sales launch of its first U.S. development – Okan Tower. The distinctive architecture planned for the 70-story mixed-purpose property is meant to emulate the silhouette of a blossoming tulip (Turkey’s national flower). Located in Downtown Miami at 555 North Miami Avenue, this innovative addition to the Miami skyline will feature a 294-key hotel by Hilton Hotels & Resorts, 64,000 square feet of ‘Class A’ office space, 236 condo-hotel units starting on the 36th floor, 149 condominium residences starting on the 51st floor, plus four duplex penthouses.
Okan Group Chairman and billionaire, Bekir Okan, credits the city of Miami’s vibrant energy and international fusion for his choice in the project’s location. “It is with great pleasure that we unveil Okan Tower as we embark on a journey to present a bold real estate product in one of the world’s leading destinations,” he added. “In selecting our projects throughout the world, we always seek to establish an impact that will make history. Not only in its design but through its level of experiential elements, Okan Tower will have a transformative effect on the metropolis that will forever change Miami’s skyline”.
The architecture firm behind the tower’s bold design in tribute to Turkish culture is Behar Font & Partners. Okan Tower’s studio, one-, and two-bedroom condo-hotel units will be delivered turnkey furnished, ranging in size from 447 to 1,245 square feet, while its condo-residence offerings will include one- to three-bedroom units plus a den, ranging from 698 to over 2,071 square feet; and 4 duplex-style penthouses ranging from 1,873 to more than 2,142 square feet. Okan Tower will also offer world-class amenities, including high-speed elevators with separate access for various mixed-use components, a sky pool with panoramic views from the 70th floor, outdoor lounge, Hammam spa, state-of-the-art health and fitness center, kids’ playroom, chef and gastro kitchen, movie theater, wine cellar and cigar room, as well as a rooftop restaurant located on the 67th floor.
There’s no doubt that this project will cater to the taste of the foreign buyers so highly accounted for in the past several years of Miami’s residential real estate sales. A 3,000 square-foot sales gallery for the tower already opened in Istanbul, Turkey on May 2nd, complete with a full model residence. The U.S. sales gallery will open on May 10th. Promising sophistication and convenience, Okan Tower’s location is close in proximity to business, entertainment, culture, and the arts – with Perez Art Museum, Phillip and Patricia Frost Museum of Science, American Airlines, the upcoming Miami Worldcenter, and the Brightline Train all within blocks.
Privately funded, the project is already slated to break ground this fall. Pricing for units at Okan Tower starts from $318,500.
