Brickell Forest is a condominium of 3 floors and 16 residences on Brickell Avenue, built in 1980. Official City of Miami records show its 40-year recertification, the City's periodic structural and electrical review of older buildings, as completed for the 2020 cycle. A public records check of Miami-Dade Clerk of Courts records and Florida DBPR condominium complaints, run on October 22, 2026, found no liens, lawsuits or regulatory complaints at watch level or higher.
The building sits in FEMA flood zone X, a minimal risk area where flood insurance is not federally required but is available. The lowest street next to it is 13.1 ft above the highest tide predicted for 2026 at Virginia Key. It is in Miami-Dade hurricane evacuation zone B.
