Do you remember hearing news the Resorts World Miami would soon begin building on the former Miami Herald site? Even though the hopes of a casino coming to Miami has been put on hold they are moving forward with their $3 billion plans that include a new design.
The revised design of 13.9-acre site will include a 5-start hotel, condominiums, waterfront restaurants and related amenities. According to the co-founder of the architecture firm that is creating the new design, the purpose of the redesign is to “bring to life one of Miamib s most underutilized pieces of waterfront land after decades of inactivity.” The new design will transform the site which has long been viewed as “dilapidated” and “inaccessible” into a pedestrian-friendly focal point of downtown. Additional plans for the design include an 800 foot-long, 50 foot-wide waterfront promenade with a view corridor and landscaped green space, as well as preserved vistas between the Omni district and Biscayne Bay.
