13th Floor Frontrunner for $309M Miami Redevelopment Project

South Miami leaders are expected to select 13th Floor Investments as the winning bidder on a $309 million redevelopment plan. Following a Request for Proposal (RFP) process, the company was the only one that satisfied the requirements the town was looking for.

The town is seeking to redevelop the 4.5-acre site at 6130 Sunset Drive through a public-private partnership (P3). The site currently houses City Hall, the Police Department, and a Miami-Dade County Library branch.

The proposed Link at SoMi project features two 15-story buildings with 670 residential units, 28,000 square feet of retail space, and 880 parking spaces, as well as a five-story, 70,000-square-foot municipal building that would house City Hall, the Police Department, and the library.

The project’s design is by Miami-based Corwil Architects, with Coral Gables-based RJ Heisenbottle Architects serving as the historic preservation consultant.
