Construction has begun at the 7 acre site in Omni that will soon be the Omni Park. Although temporary, the park will remain for 2 years to provide food and beverage vendors, amphitheater, skate park and art walk amongst the green urban escape. The site is owned by FDOT and will be part of the Signature Bridge Project which is under bidding. What remains of the Omni Park at that point will be reconstructed under and around the Signature Bridge to keep the green space in the area which has been the subject to massive urbanization with Miami WorldCenter construction now in full swing. The OMNI CRA has provided $300,000 in funding for th park and the Perez Art Museum has provided $150,000 while Brad Knoefler is overseeing construction which is scheduled for late February 2017.
