MIA north of V18 radial up to the V278 radials is what altitude?

Large airports’ airspace is laid out in layered shelves, with the bottom of each shelf defined as a floor that can vary by sector. In busy Class B around Miami, boundaries are often shown by VOR radials, so different wedges have different floor elevations. For the sector north of the MIA VOR between the V18 and V278 radials, the floor is 2,500 feet MSL. That means to be inside Class B in that area you must be at or above 2,500 feet MSL. Altitudes below that would be outside the Class B sector, while higher altitudes remain inside as you climb.
