Hialeah city officials have greenlit a mixed-use project that would offer both retail and residences.
The venture, which would occupy 5.6 acres, would measure eight stories above grade and feature 559 apartments. Five percent of those homes (about 28) would be reserved under the Hialeah Heroes Program, an initiative that aims to provide workforce housing for firefighters, first responders, and other city employees. County records indicate that workforce housing is aimed at those earning 60 to 140 percent of the area median income which, as of April 2024, was $79,400 annually.

Aside from the homes, the venture also calls for 26,000 square feet of retail and about 835 parking spots. Most of the build site is vacant or used as parking; it’s owned by 555 East 25th Street LLC, operated by the founder of Leon Medical Centers. Modis Architects designed the project. The Miami-based firm also designed San Sebastian Luxury Homes, a garden-style housing development in the region. Our report indicated that the developer was aiming to double the number of apartments and get clearance for 88,000 square feet of new construction.
The eight-story, mixed-use venture concerns 55 East 25th Street and 502 to 552 East 26th Street, Hialeah, FL, 33013, in Miami-Dade County.
