Axis on Brickell

Axis on Brickell is conveniently located steps away from Mary Brickell Village, the Metro Mover and Metro Rail stations, Publix Supermarket, and a 7 – 10 minute drive to I-​95. Axis is a notorious go-​to place to get the party started Thursday-​Saturday since it’s so close to all the bars in Brickell. The skyline is beautiful from all the units facing North and West.
TOWERS
— The condominium has 2 towers: North (1111 SW 1^st Ave) and South (79 SW 12^th St).
— Both towers offer the same layouts, the only difference is in the lobby where the dark wood tones make the North tower more high end.
UNITS
— 40-​story building with 4 slow elevators (one of them being the service/​pet elevator).
— The majority of the units are rented out and 50% of tenants are college students.
— Units have at least one parking spot, some have a storage unit.
— I’ve lived in the North Tower for some time now in a ²⁄₂ wrap-​around corner unit which is more spacious but lacks closet space and a regular ²⁄₂ which had enough closet space but lacked space in the dining/​living room.
— Only owners are allowed to have pets.
VISITORS
— Guests and deliveries must register in the front desk and need approval by tenant.
— Only 2 overnight guests per bedroom are allowed (2 bedroom = 4 guests).
— Overnight valet parking is $ 16 cash only.
AMENITIES
The towers are connected at the mezzanine level where the shared amenities are:
— Lap Pool
— Infinity Pool with cabanas
— Jacuzzi
— Locker room and Sauna/​Steam Room
— Theater/​AV room
— Fitness center with dumbbells up to 50 lbs and dance room
— Party room (needs deposit to be used)
— Grills (needs deposit to be used)
SECURITY
— A fob is needed for entry.
— A parking decal allows only one vehicle to enter the 5-​story garage.
— Guards at the lobby are friendly and once they know you they will wave hi or open the doors if you are carrying groceries.
— Guards are strict at the pool and have a security watching your every move.
FIRE ALARMS
They go off at least once a month at random times and they do routine tests twice a year but it will seem like it happens every quarter.
MOVE-​IN
Move-​ins happen on weekdays only 9a-​5p by appointment only which is standard in Brickell and require an elevator deposit of $ 500.
Overall, I love living at Axis North because it’s centrally located within Brickell but the management needs to work on a few things.
