A massive multi-story indoor sports and recreational facility is being planned near Miami’s Dolphin Mall in the Doral neighborhood. Named Destination Sport Miami, the building will span nearly 1 million square feet – soon to become one of the largest sports facilities in North America. The project is being developed by a group of backers lead by Hockey Hall of Famer Bryan Trottier, who signed a land lease for 20-acres with Cimabian Group. Robert Andrus, president of Andrus Architecture, is named as the architect.

Destination Sport Miami is planned to feature various indoor spaces including 2 NHL-sized ice rinks, NFL-FIFA size artificial turf field, 18 NBA-sized basketball courts, 26 regulation volleyball courts, 11 regulation USTA hard surface tennis courts, a 20,000-square-foot E-Sports arena, a private indoor tennis club and long-course 50 meter Olympic-sized swimming pool, a 25-yard warm water therapy and teaching pool, surf machine, a state-of-the-art fitness center, and 26 locker rooms. There will also be a full service sports themed restaurant and grill, a deli with healthy food options, a Latin American-themed café, 16 party/event rooms, a full service retail/pro shop, over 300,000 square feet of flex office or event space and a dedicated floor for Sports Academy.

The development is projected to cost approximately $150 million to build; Miami-Dade County has agreed to provide up to $2.94 million in incentives to the project to fund the creation of 229 jobs over 10 years. The interior lot is located behind Top Golf at 11850 Northwest 22nd Street and across the street from Telemundo Center at 1 Telemundo Way.
