Miami Beach Mayor Announces List Of New Projects – New Cancer Center, 3-Acre Public Park And Push To Renovate Lincoln Road

Miami Beach Mayor Dan Gelber on Monday rattled off a list of new projects coming online this year — including a new cancer center, a 3-acre public park and a push to renovate Lincoln Road — during his annual State of the City speech.

Gelber, speaking from the stage at the New World Center, announced the development of the $250 million Irma and Norman Braman Cancer Center at Mount Sinai Medical Center.

With Braman, the billionaire philanthropist, and his family in attendance, Gelber showed a rendering of the sleek new building that he said will be an “ultramodern” facility overlooking Biscayne Bay. He also announced the opening of a new 3-acre public park at Sixth Street and Alton Road to be built as part of the Park on Fifth condo development. Other park projects, like the conversion of an old Mid-Beach golf course into a sprawling new park, are expected to break ground in months, he said.

“Our goal: No city anywhere should have better parks, promenades and outdoor spaces than we do,” Gelber said.

Gelber said that in April he will also advocate for $60 million in renovations for Lincoln Road using property taxes from an anti-blight Community Redevelopment Agency, or CRA. Upgrades would include more fountains, cultural event space and a children’s park.
