Work began earlier this month on the first phase of a $1 billion mixed-use project in Miami, according to a news release that the developer, Terra, shared with Construction Dive. Davie, Florida-based ANF Group is serving as the leading general contractor on the project.
The Upland Park project will transform the area around West Miami-Dade County’s Dolphin Park-and-Ride Transit Terminal Facility into a 47-acre transit-oriented community with residential, retail and commercial uses, per the release.
The master plan will come together in multiple phases, eventually delivering over 2,000 new mid-rise and garden-style multifamily units, 282,000 square feet of retail and 414,000 square feet of commercial space. The first phase, now under construction, encompasses 578 apartments and will be delivered in 2026, per the release from Miami-based Terra.
Doral, Florida-based PPK Architects provided the designs, collaborating with master plan architect Arquitectonica and urban planner Plusurbia Design, both of which are also headquartered in Miami, the release said.
Terra has a broad portfolio of newly completed multifamily developments in South Florida, such as:
- Grove Central, a transit-oriented mixed-use development in Coconut Grove.
- Natura Gardens in Northwest Miami-Dade County.
- Pines Garden at City Center, a garden-apartment community in Broward County’s City of Pembroke Pines.
In addition, Terra is currently developing Centro City, which will include up to 1,200 apartments as part of a larger 38-acre mixed-use development west of Little Havana, Florida, per the release.
