Construction on Grove Central, Miami’s newest mixed-use development, has officially been completed. The property, located in Coconut Grove, is 23-storys tall. It features 170,000 square feet of retail space, over 400 living units and a parking garage with 1,250 public spaces. The Grove Central was put up to create a transit-oriented hub offering a seamless pedestrian experience that encourages Metrorail ridership and urban living. Furthermore, it was developed as part of a Miami-Dade County initiative aimed at improving connectivity between residential living, commercial development, and mass transit through private development on County-owned land.

The project improves pedestrian flow to and from the revamped Metrorail station and the adjacent Underline, a 13-mile linear park running from South Miami-Dade to Downtown Miami. RSP Architects and Walter Meyer of New York’s Local Office Landscape Architecture also worked on the project. The project developers were Grass River Property and Terra who broke ground on Grove Central in 2021. The development has been awarded Florida Green Building Certification for embracing and exceeding the City of Miami’s sustainability, efficiency, and green building requirements.
