Energy efficiency

1450 Brickell is Miami's first LEED Gold office building.[1] Hill York, a mechanical contractor, built the utiliVisor system in the building to continuously commission the building's HVAC systems.[2][3]

Hurricane resistance

At the time of completion, 1450 Brickell incorporated the strongest curtainwall window system of any commercial building in the nation. The entire 35-story glass curtainwall system is designed for large-missile impact (hurricane resistance), even though Miami-Dade County only requires glass in the first 30 feet (9.1 m) of a building to be large-missile impact-resistant.[4] DeSimone Consulting Engineers is the structural engineering firm for the project.[5]
