  • Miami-Dade Stretches to Accommodate American Dream Miami, North America's Largest Mall American Dream Miami Wouldn't
    Miami-Dade stretches to accommodate American Dream Miami, North America’s largest mall Brian Bandell, Senior Reporter, South Florida Business Journal American Dream Miami wouldn’t just be the largest mall in North America; it would be unlike almost any attraction in the world for its scope of activities and potential economic impact. That vision for this mega mall, slated to open in northwest Miami-Dade County in 2020, has inspired both anticipation and trepidation. It’s sure to create thousands of jobs, lure more tourists and generate major tax revenue - an estimated $48.5 million locally and $93.6 million for the state. But the project could exacerbate an already difficult traffic problem, and the majority of its jobs would pay less than $25,000 a year. Triple Five Group, the owner of the Mall of America in Bloomington, Minnesota, plans to build the 6.2 million-square-foot retail and entertainment complex with 2,000 hotel rooms at the southwest corner of Florida’s Turnpike and Interstate 75. The $3.2 billion project is under county review for a comprehensive development plan amendment, along with the Graham Cos.’s proposal on a neighboring 309-acre site for 2,000 multifamily rental units, 1 million square feet of retail and a 3 million-square-foot business park. The first county commission vote in May is expected to trigger a state review. Coming together quickly Plans for American Dream Miami first came to light in March, and have been moving at a rapid pace with the strong backing of Miami-Dade Mayor Carlos Gimenez.

  • The American Dream
    The American Dream America's latest shopping & leisure experience in New Jersey Many years ago so-called "XXL shopping malls" the urban shopping experience in concentrated form spread as a major trend from America to Europe and the rest of the world. The West Edmonton Mall, which opened in Canada in 1981 and was considered the world's largest shopping centre until 2004, set standards for modern shopping facilities early on combined with a wealth of entertainment offerings. The Mall of America in Bloomington/Minnesota (USA, opened in 1992) can also boast superlatives: with more than 40 million visitors annually, it is the world's most visited shopping mall. All these projects have a connection to the Edmonton/Alberta-based project developer Triple Five Group, a company founded by the Ghermezian family in the mid-Sixties and still owned by them. The West Edmonton Mall and the Mall of America were developed and continue to be operated by the Canadian company. The most recent projects of the Triple Five conglomerate include the new American Dream shopping and entertainment centre in the US state of New Jersey, the first section of which was officially opened on 25 October 2019 (see EAP News of 25 October 2019). In 2011 the Triple Five Group took over the retail project in East Rutherford, originally planned under the name "Meadowlands Xanadu", which had been under construction since 2004. The complex is now to be completed in four phases and will subsequently contain hundreds of retail, catering, entertainment and fashion offerings on an area of approximately 279,000 square meters.
