Demolition work is underway at The HueHub site in Miami’s West Little River neighborhood, clearing a 12-acre parcel for a large-scale mixed-use community. The project, led by Spanish developer Pablo Castro, represents an $880 million investment and replaces 141 existing apartments with a significantly more intensive residential and amenity program.
The development is located at 8395 NW 27th Avenue and is described as a transit-oriented community. Plans call for seven towers of 35 stories each and more than 4,000 fully furnished residential units, supported by neighborhood-serving retail and public green space. Arquitectonica has been engaged as the project’s architect, while First Florida is slated to serve as general contractor once vertical construction begins, which is expected to start in April.
The HueHub is designed with a broad range of multifamily housing options. Planned rents start at approximately $1,300 per month for studios, $1,600 for one-bedroom units, and $1,900 for two-bedroom units, according to the project details released to date. The residential component is intended to be fully furnished, positioning the community to serve renters seeking move-in-ready accommodations.
A substantial portion of the property is targeted to essential workers. The developer plans to open 3,000 of the project’s units at base rental rates specifically for first responders and other essential workers, signaling a focus on workforce housing within a large urban infill setting. This structure distinguishes The HueHub from conventional market-rate offerings by explicitly reserving a majority of the homes for this tenant segment.
Beyond its residential density, The HueHub is programmed with a sizable amenity package. Plans include a 2-acre public park, a fitness center with yoga and wellness studios, and a swimming pool. Additional features are expected to include coworking areas, a podcasting studio, a cafe, and a juice bar, reflecting both lifestyle and work-oriented uses on site.
Family- and community-supportive infrastructure is also part of the plan. The project is set to incorporate a child care center and on-site medical facilities, including urgent care services, alongside 24/7 security. These elements are positioned to provide day-to-day convenience for residents and to reinforce the development’s appeal to first responders, essential workers, and other local renters.
With demolition now officially underway and construction planned to begin shortly thereafter, The HueHub marks an early-stage but significant addition to the multifamily pipeline in Miami’s West Little River neighborhood, combining high-rise density, transit orientation, and an essential-worker-focused housing program.
