How close does the game get to the real place?
In the game
The trailers show Vice City's high-rise downtown, including a pair of towers joined by a roof with a circular cutout.
The real place
500 Brickell (2008) is a pair of condominium towers whose shared roof has a large circular opening above a pool courtyard. Miami New Times and Axios identified it, the Marquis and other Brickell and downtown towers in the trailer skyline.
Visiting
The free Metromover Brickell Loop passes close to these towers and gives raised views of the skyline without a car.
