Radio Tower Overlooking the Demolition of the Miami Herald Building
According to exMiami, the radio tower behind the Miami Herald will come down starting July 7th.
The radio tower was used as a transmitter for the radio station WQAM.
Genting is still doing demolition to the Miami Herald building.
Genting Resort World Miami Site
The Miami Herald reports that Genting Resort World Miami and the Related Group's Jorge Perez have been in preliminary discussions about partnering on the undeveloped waterfront former Miami Herald site.
Genting has been unable to receive Florida legislative approval for a casino on the site, which would have also included condos, hotel and retail.
Genting has been slow to demolish the rest of the Miami Herald Building since the first explosion almost two months ago.
Miami Herald Building
Demolition started on the old Miami Herald Building this morning after months of slowly dismantling the building.
The Miami Herald moved out of the building in May 2013 after being there since the building inception in 1963.
Located at One Herald Plaza along Biscayne Bay, the building and land was bought by the Genting Group in 2011 for $236 million. They have plans on building Resorts World Miami, which will have condos, hotels and possibly a casino, but there has been some hurdles from the State against bringing gambling to the area.
Below are photos from three phases of the demolition taken in August 2013 and two separate occasions in April 2014.
