Miami Beach Celebrates Groundbreaking of the
Phase 3 Beachwalk in Mid-Beach
—Wednesday, November 20 at 4 p.m.—
WHO/WHAT: Join the City of Miami Beach today at the 37 Street Boardwalk for a
groundbreaking ceremony for phase 3 of the Middle Beach Beachwalk at
4 p.m. This on-grade, ADA accessible and decorative paver pathway will
replace the current wooden boardwalk that exists between 23 and 45
streets to match with and connect to the South and North Beach portions
of the Beachwalk.
The project is being done in partnership with the Florida Department of
Transportation (FDOT) and the Federal Highway Administration, which
includes a $4.5 million contribution from the Miami Beach’s $439 million
total General Obligation (G.O.) Bond Program.
The groundbreaking event will mark a significant milestone for the city as
it nears the completion of the full Beachwalk renovation that will provide
residents and visitors with one seamless pedestrian and cyclist
connection from South Pointe to 87 Terrace — stretching the length of
the city’s entire oceanside east coast.
Elected officials and city staff will gather with Mid-Beach area residents
to celebrate the long-anticipated project. It is the 16th of 57 total G.O.
Bond projects to enter its construction phase. For more information, visit

WHEN: Wednesday, November 20
4 p.m.
WHERE: 37 Street Boardwalk
Miami Beach, FL 33140
