We appreciate your comments but would like to clarify. The 9 Island building in Miami Beach is a project that consisted of two phases, the first of which has been completed on time per the contract. The second phase, which is currently partially TCO'd has been subject to over 20 revisions to the master permit plans and over 100 changes to the design of the project.
Continually changing the design and modifying the plans causes delays and changes to the construction schedules which in turn delays the completion of the project form the previously targeted date.

This construction company has been renovating the building 9 Island Avenue in Miami Beach for the last 3 years - it was supposed to be finished by June 2018 and they are still not even close to finishing because they never paid their subcontractors and this is about to go to litigation so you can imagine how frustrating and aggravated everyone in the building is with this company. So no, I wouldnt recommend at all because of their extreme tardiness, unprofessionalism and complete lack of responsibility and unreliability.
