Miami World Expo Gets Initial Support
The Miami’s school district is bracing and preparing for the thousands of families who would be moving to Downtown Miami and likewise is the city. The Port is expanding, transportation is being invigorated, condos are booming and the infrastructure of the city needs to continue to be enlarged at all fronts.
That is why I believe Miami’s Planning and Zoning Board unanimously approved zoning code exemptions to enable the development of a massive $600 million Marriott Marquis-branded convention hotel at the 4.7-acre former Miami Arena site. However, the 54-story Miami World Expo Center isn’t a done deal yet. The exemptions must also be approved by Miami commissioners. The project, which is being developed by the MDM Development Group and designed by Coral Gables architecture firm Nichols Brosch Wurst Wolfe & Associates, is on the City Commission agenda for Oct. 9. Joseph Herndon, MDM’s director of development, said he hopes the approvals are secured within a week. The developer wants to break ground on the project by the end of 2014 and complete it by winter 2017. “Our objective is ambitious,” Herndon said. Once complete, Miami World Expo Center will total more than 2.2 million square feet and include 1,800 hotel rooms, 1,200 parking spaces and 300,000 square feet of exhibition and convention space. Nichols Brosch vice president Igor Reyes said the Miami World Expo Center’s main 100,000-square-foot exhibition space will “dwarf” the 800-room Loews Miami Beach Hotel, the site of this week’s CREW-Miami * The Real Deal
