Genting Hotel Rendering
A month ago, Genting proposed a 300 room hotel over the Omni Station bus terminal and those plans have been approved with a deal by Miami-Dade Commissioners.
The 90 year lease includes renovating the bus terminal for $16 million and paying Miami-Dade County $10 million before it can begin work on the 36 story hotel.
Genting has been lobbying for a casino on the site for years after purchasing 14 acres of land, including the old Miami Herald Building site, for $236 million.
