300 Grove Bay Residences was a proposed residential development to be located in the Coconut Grove neighborhood of Miami, Florida. The complex was to consist of 3 high-rise buildings, with all three rising at least 300 feet (91 m). Each building in the complex was designed by the Arquitectonica architectural firm and was being jointly developed by Ocean Land Investments and The Related Group of Florida. The towers were originally approved for construction in September 2007 and were expected to be completed by 2010. In May 2008, however, the Miami-Dade Circuit Court nullified the project's approval on grounds of procedural violations and spot zoning. Since its approval was nullified in 2008, the project has neither begun construction nor undergone a redesign, and it is no longer considered an active development.

“While the focus in the landscape of Old World cities was commonly government structures, churches, or the residences of rulers, the landscape and the skyline of American cities have boasted their hotels, department stores, office buildings, apartments, and skyscrapers. In this grandeur, Americans have expressed their Booster Pride, their hopes for visitors and new settlers, and customers, for thriving commerce and industry.”
