THE REAL
DEAL: East Hialeah on the verge of a renaissance
Excerpt by
Francisco Alvarado, The Real Deal
The city
also approved master plans for transit-oriented developments near Hialeah
Market Station and Tri-Rail/Metrorail Transfer Station at 1125 East 25th
Street. Designed by PlusUrbia, the plans call for more residential and
commercial projects, pedestrian-friendly streets, enhanced public space, taller
building heights and reduced parking requirements. As a result, two developers
have already submitted plans.
The first, Bridge Crossings, is a seven-story mixed-use project totaling 71,116 square feet with 74 apartments and 1,100 square feet of ground-floor retail, about a block north from the transfer station linking Tri-Rail and Metrorail. The 22,318-square-foot former lumber yard is owned by A&B 2701 Investment LLC, which paid $85,000 for the property in 2014.
Mitchell Sabina’s MS Development and L. Michael Osman are teaming up on a proposed six-story development a block west of Market Station and across from a Home Depot. The developers paid $1.8 million for the 1.14-acre site in 2014. Called Apogean Pointe, the project would entail 59 apartments, nine live-work units, 4,000 square feet of commercial space and 102 surface parking spaces.
Paul Hernandez recapped his initiative to create the Leah Arts District, a swath of industrial warehouses and car shops in east Hialeah that can be converted to live and work spaces for artists priced out of Wynwood and other emerging neighborhoods in Miami. He pointed out the popularity of Flamingo Plaza, a shopping center offering a milieu of thrift stores and discount outlets popular with Miami millennials, as a driving force behind his idea.
