Some Floridians are aware that billionaires who call the Sunshine State home do work that leaves their mark on the state. I’ve written about Ken Griffin donating around $300 million to Florida causes since moving in 2022. I’ve also reported on billionaire Jorge Pérez donating a $10 million penthouse to an arts nonprofit. And now, the billionaire Ansin family has reportedly proposed a huge mixed-use development in Miramar. And millions will go toward affordable housing.
About The Ansin Family: According to The Real Deal, the Ansin family is one of the wealthiest in South Florida. The family also owns WSVN, a FOX affiliate in Miami. The Miami Herald estimates Edmund Ansin’s net worth as $1.5 billion.
The Proposed Massive Mixed-Use Development: The Ansin family’s company, Sunbeam Properties, has proposed a 126-acre mixed-use development called Park Miramar at the northeast corner of Miramar Parkway and Red Road. The project would reportedly include 2,874 apartments, a 185-key hotel, plus retail, restaurants, and 7,859 parking spaces.
