EPIC Miami Residences and Hotel

EPIC Miami Residences and Hotel is a condo-hotel being constructed in Miami, Florida by Lionstone Hotels and Resorts. Lionstone bought the former DuPont Plaza Hotel in August 2001[1] with the intention of renovating it at a cost of $80 million, but instead demolished it between April 2004 and January 2005.[2]

Lionstone formed a partnership with Ugo Colombo to develop the site of the former DuPont Plaza Hotel into EPIC Miami Residences and Hotel, a mixed-use development, at a cost of US$370 million.[3] The first 342-unit tower, Epic, was completed in 2008, to be followed by a second nearly 600-unit tower. The 414-room hotel is currently managed by Kimpton Hotels.
