The Brickell World Plaza, also known as 600 Brickell, and formerly known as the Brickell Financial Center, is an office
The building contains 600,000 square feet (56,000 m2) of leasable floor space, an eleven-story parking garage with 927 spaces, and a 30,000-square-foot (2,800 m2) ground level public plaza.[4]

The 40-story building topped out in early 2009, but construction was then suspended, or greatly slowed, as the building was still not completed over two years later as of March 2011. The building lost an anchor tenant, a law firm with a $58 million, 10.5-year lease for 15 percent of the building (115,000 sq ft), in early 2009.[5] With the new name of Brickell World Plaza, the building had a scheduled opening date of August 2011. The Foram Group, building developers of Brickell World Plaza, have claimed that this slowed construction was strategic for the purpose of detail, and that after completion they would move their corporate offices into the building. However, the near halt in construction and the loss of a major tenant suggests that the delay was not strategic but due to the 2008 economic crisis and the falling demand for office space due to the excessive construction in Miami at the time.
