A major redevelopment plan is set to transform a prominent site in Miami’s Little Havana neighborhood, where a gas station and several commercial buildings could be replaced with a 12-story residential complex. The proposed project, named 27 Flagler, reflects ongoing efforts to modernize the area while balancing its rich cultural history.
The city’s Urban Development Review Board will evaluate the project application on September 18. If approved, the 0.89-acre site, located at 2601, 2615, and 2695 W. Flagler St., as well as 16 N.W. 26th Ave., will undergo a significant overhaul. The property, currently home to a UGas service station and retail and office spaces, would be replaced by a mixed-use residential and commercial development.
