Miami Freedom Park Construction Update

July 28, 2023

The location where Inter Miami’s stadium is slated to be built has officially received site work permits from Miami’s Building Department.

In the most recent few weeks, two different permissions were issued. The first one was released on July 14th. It is for work that is categorized under excavation/piles/site and soil enhancement and is expected to be worth $30,759,715.

The second permit, which is listed as excavation/piles/site and soil enhancement category and for a different address, was issued on July 25th and is estimated to be worth $5,240,284.

According to records, the property’s tree and demolition permits are still being reviewed and have not yet been given.

The contractor for Miami Freedom Park is listed as Downrite Engineering. Jorge Mas, the managing owner of Inter Miami, stated in June that the start of construction was anticipated “any day now,” and that it would take a few weeks.

Last year, the Miami City Commission approved a 99-year lease agreement with Inter Miami CF. On September 13, the Miami City Commission authorized zoning that would allow for the development of a 25,000-seat soccer stadium, a 750-room hotel, a 58-acre park, and a 1 million square foot commercial complex with retail, offices, and entertainment on 130 acres of land at Melreese Country Club.

The new stadium’s opening is planned for the summer or early fall of 2025, according to Mas.
