The Underline breaks ground

The first portion of the planned $120 million linear park, set to stretch roughly 10 miles underneath the Metrorail from the Dadeland South Station to the Brickell Station, broke ground on Thursday.

Swire Properties Vice President Chris Gandolfo, Friends of the Underline founder Meg Daly, and developers David Martin of Terra and Pinnacle Housing Group’s Louis Wolfson were among the party’s attendees.

The project’s largest private donor to date is Swire, with a $600,000 commitment to the Underline’s Brickell Backyard segment. Other contributors include developers Pinnacle, 13th Floor Investments and the Adler Group.
