“We have before us a truly unprecedented opportunity to add tremendous value to urban life in the city of Coral Gables by transforming a neglected site into a dynamic community hub, and to do so in a sustainable way,” Dan Freed, vice president in RTKL’s Miami office, said in a statement.

Agave announced plans for the $500 million development in February 2014. The company’s CEO is tied to Mexico City-based Grupo JB, which owns the Jose Cuervo brand. The company has developed properties in Coral Gables before, such as the office building at 396 Alhambra Circle. — Katherine Kallergis
