Epic Tower is an urban residential skyscraper under construction in Downtown Miami, Florida. Epic, which is currently under construction, will be 500 ft (152 m) tall and will have 48 floors. The tower is located on the north bank of the Miami River in downtown's Central Business District. It is bordered by Biscayne Boulevard Way on the west, Southeast 2nd Street to the north, the Miami River to the south, and Southeast 5th Avenue to the east. The architect of the complex is Revuelta Vega Leon.

Epic was part of a two-tower residential complex consisting of the Epic Tower and the Dupont Tower, but the taller of the two, Dupont Tower, was canceled.Cite web|title=Dupont Tower|url=http://www.emporis.com/en/wm/bu/?id=duponttowersii-miami-fl-usa|publisher=Emporis.com|accessdate=2008-01-06] If it had been built, the Dupont Tower would have stood 609 ft (186 m) tall and contain 60 floors. The Dupont Tower was named after the Alfred I. DuPont Building, a National Historic Building from the 1930s that is also in Miami.
