And Coral Gables would NEVER permit the metrorail going right through the middle and for the full length of its downtown business district, Miracle Mile (between Douglas and LeJeune).

You literally cannot even paint your house, unless it is an approved color by the city of Coral Gables.

I missed this last important quote right here. There are ways to relocate banyan trees and it looks like the banyan trees along Coral Way aren't the heaviest in comparison to banyan trees that are in Asia. Here's a link to a banyan relocator: https://www.kikiaolaconstruction.com/portfolio-items/banyan-tree-relocation/

Yeah... so maybe they'll do that for 2 continuous miles of century-old trees.

Sure, that's completely realistic. Coral Gables and the City of Miami will DEFINITELY pay the literally hundreds of millions of dollars to do this so that they can destroy an historic district and lower property values, remove 2 traffic lanes, disrupt and then obliterate a very wealthy business district for a public transit project that they don't want.

One of the more absurd things I've heard on this forum.

Miami Design District’s The Ursa Office Tower Advances In Construction Permitting

Construction permitting for a Class A office tower known as The Ursa being developed in the Miami Design District continues to advance, Miami Building Department records show.

A contractor for the project has also been named, according to filings with the city.

The construction permit for The Ursa was first applied for in October 2022, with the full plans filed in November.

The permit filing lists the amount of office square footage being built at 159,892 square feet, with an estimated hard construction cost of $70m.

An Expedited Life and Safety review request was filed on March 20. A separate tree permit was applied for on March 13.

GT McDonald is listed as the contractor.

A demolition permit to clear the site was issued last year, and was listed as finalized with all inspection completed by November.

The Ursa will make “an art form out of office space,” according to a letter sent last year by developer Dacra to Miami-Dade County planners.

It will include museum-quality exterior public art and interior art curated by Daniel Arsham, Dacra has said.

Arquitectonica is the architect.

Miami Could Host Super Bowl In 2027
May 22, 2023

Miami could soon find out if it will be hosting the Super Bowl in 2027.

An announcement could be made as soon as this month, when a meeting of NFL owners is scheduled.
According to the Palm Beach Post, Miami leaders are optimistic that they will be chosen to host the event.
However, Los Angeles also announced recently that it would like to host the Super Bowl that year, which came as a surprise.

Miami has hosted 11 Super Bowls, more than any other city.

A firm led by Elvis Dumervil, a former Pro Bowl NFL player turned real estate developer, wants to redevelop an old apartment complex in North Miami Beach into a 15-story mixed-use project.
The city’s Planning and Zoning Board will consider plans for Prestige Boardwalk on the 2.28-acre site at 16651 N.E. 18th Ave. on the evening of July 10. The site currently has 94 apartments that were built between 1957 and 1961.
Prestige Boardwalk LLC, managed by Dumervil of North Miami-based Prestige Estates, acquired the property for $9.5 million in 2018.

The existing apartment complex would be replaced with 409 apartments, 11,151 square feet of retail and a 642-space parking garage, including 126 spaces for electric vehicle charging, in two towers. There would be a pool/amenity deck on the eighth floor, plus pedestrian bridges connecting the two buildings on both the second and eighth floors. There would also be a boardwalk along the neighboring Snake Creek Canal.
