County wants high-rises built atop downtown Miami cultural center – South Florida Business Journal

Miami-Dade County is exploring the possibility of putting up privately-leased high-rise towers atop both the region’s most significant history museum and its central library.

In a presentation to construction executives, bankers, attorneys and others involved in crafting so-called public-private partnerships with local government, the county’s director of cultural affairs unveiled the proposal to turn the home of both HistoryMiami’s and Miami-Dade’s central library into a large mixed-use development.
