The proposed development, known as The Link at SoMi, would include municipal offices, residential apartments, commercial space, a park, and the restoration of a historic building.

The project’s design is by Miami-based Corwil Architects, with Coral Gables-based RJ Heisenbottle Architects serving as the historic preservation consultant. The Link at SoMi will feature two 15-story buildings with 670 residential units, 28,000 square feet of retail space, 880 parking spaces, and a five-story, 70,000-square-foot municipal building that would house City Hall, the Police Department, and the library. The project also includes the reconstruction of Jean Willis Park, with the historic Sylvia Martin building as its focal point.

Link at SoMi project is planned to unfold in two phases. Phase one would be developed on the current site of Jean Willis Park and the Police Department parking lot and would include 335 apartments,
8,195 square feet of retail, a seven-story parking garage, and the new municipal building. Phase two would follow once city staff relocate to the new facilities, enabling redevelopment of the old municipal building site.
