Electronic menorah lights-up Miami skyline for Hanukkah
A giant electronic menorah and Hanukkah greeting light the Paramount Miami Worldcenter tower.

In observance of the Hanukkah holiday, the world’s largest electronic menorah is lighting up the South Florida skyline during the eight nights of the Jewish “Festival of Lights.”

Starting the night of Nov. 28 and continuing through the night of Dec. 6, the 60-story, $700-million Paramount Miami Worldcenter tower, which is equipped with the world’s tallest and most technologically advanced animation lighting system, is igniting thousands of light-emitting diodes (LEDs) in the shape of a menorah, in celebration of the Jewish holiday of Hanukkah.

“The world’s largest electronic menorah is a shining beacon of belief and celebration,” said Daniel Kodsi, Paramount Miami Worldcenter CEO. “The menorah is lit to celebrate the triumph of light over darkness and is a symbol of truth and justice, which is what all Americans strive for.”

Appearing through Paramount’s 700-foot center column are the colossal twinkling images of scores of six-pointed “Stars of David” and the words, “Happy Hanukkah.”

Across the building’s crown, appears a 100-foot-high by 300-foot-wide illuminated image of eight flickering candles placed in a menorah — the classic candelabra symbol of Judaism.

The ultra-futuristic Paramount Miami Worldcenter skyscraper in downtown Miami is built with 16,000 LEDs, embedded in 10,000 panes of high-impact glass, which can create a combination of 16.2 million colors.

Paramount is the soaring signature residential skyscraper of the $4 billion, 27-acre Miami Worldcenter. It currently is America’s largest urban core construction project and the nation’s second-largest real estate development.

Paramount is considered the most heavily amenitized residential tower in the U.S.
