Standing proud: Miami developers race to erect city’s tallest tower.
Developer Gil Dezer won’t stop until he’s on the top.
“We keep asking the FAA for taller, and the request keeps getting granted,” said Dezer, whose company is the largest landowner of oceanfront property in South Florida, with condo sales of more than $4 billion in the state.
Dezer is talking about two of his projects, both branded by automakers: Porsche Design Tower Miami at 649 feet, and the Bentley Residences Tower, which when completed, will rise 749 feet. That will make Bentley the tallest residential building on the US coastline.
