Espirito Santo Plaza is an office skyscraper in Brickell in downtown Miami, Florida that was designed by the renowned architectural firm of Bermello Ajamil and Partners DJMJ (B&A). The 505-foot (168 meter), 36-story building is located on the southern end of Brickell Avenue in the Financial District.

The architecture is based loosely on the Saint Louis Arch, of which its front façade loosely mimics. One of Miami's common nicknames is "The Gateway to Latin America," which also closely resembles Saint Louis' nickname, "The Gateway to the West." It's said to welcome people to America as the arch welcomes people to the west. [ [http://www.emporis.com/en/wm/bu/?id=espiritosantoplaza-miami-fl-usa Espirito Santo Plaza, Miami ] ]

The building is the North American headquarters for the Espirito Santo Bank and contains some Class A office space. A Conrad Hotel as well as some residential units occupy the remaining space. The building opened July 1, 2004, and is located at 1395 Brickell Avenue, less than a block from the Financial District Metromover Station.
