The tower is located on the north bank of the Miami River in Downtown Miami's Central Business District.

Epic was part of the EPIC Miami Residences and Hotel 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|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070313020826/http://www.emporis.com/en/wm/bu/?id=duponttowersii-miami-fl-usa|url-status=usurped|archive-date=March 13, 2007|publisher=Emporis.com|access-date=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. In 2014, the {{convert|1.25|acre|hectare|adj=on}} Epic 2 site sold for US$125 million, a record-breaking rate of $100 million per acre.{{cite web|url=http://www.miamiherald.com/news/business/article1975661.html |title=Miami land fetches $100 million an acre|first=Martha |last=Brannigan|work=The Miami Herald | publisher=The McClatchy Company| date=July 15, 2014|access-date=November 21, 2015}}
