Hamilton Development plans to replace a Baptist Health South Florida office building with a 113,900-square-foot warehouse complex.
The Nashville-based firm bought the property at 14100 Southwest 136th Street in unincorporated Miami-Dade County from Baptist Health for $12.3 million, according to records and real estate database Vizzda. The site is in the Country Walk neighborhood, south of Miami Executive Airport.
Development of the project, called Tamiami Logistics Center, has started, Whitfield Hamilton, the firm’s CEO, said in a news release. Construction is expected to be completed in the spring of next year, the release says.
Last year, Hamilton filed an application for administrative site plan approval to Miami-Dade officials. The county approved the project this year, records show.
The development site is within a 9.5-acre property. Hamilton only purchased the portion of the property, including the 42,000-square-foot office building, where Hamilton will build Tamiami Logistics Center. The office building was completed in 1979.
Baptist Health kept ownership of its emergency room on the property, records show.
Jose and Sebastian Juncadella are part of the Fairchild Partners team leasing Tamiami Logistics Center.
Whitfield Hamilton founded his eponymously named firm in 2023 after a nearly two-decade career as regional partner at Irvine, California-based Panattoni Development Company. Former Panattoni executives Scott Abbott, Bill Hudgins, Jeff Konieczny and Hayne Hamilton also are founding partners of Hamilton.
The firm has projects underway in 12 markets in the Southeast and mid-Atlantic areas.
At Miami-Dade’s Flagler Station business park, Hamilton plans three warehouses in place of the office buildings at 9675, 9725 and 10451 Northwest 117th Avenue, records show. The properties are in an unincorporated area of the county.
In May, Hamilton acquired the building at 10451 Northwest 117th Avenue from Bridge Investment Group through a deed-in lieu of foreclosure, and it paid $20.8 million for the building at 9675 Northwest 117th Avenue. Hamilton also filed a $59.3 million foreclosure suit against Bridge Investment on the building at 9725 Northwest 117th Avenue, records show.
South Florida suburban offices are getting redeveloped into industrial and multifamily projects. In Boca Raton, Pebb Enterprises, BH Group and Related Group plan an eight-story, 500-unit apartment project on a portion of Office Depot’s headquarters campus at 6600 North Military Trail. Office Depot still has its headquarters at the campus, consolidating its offices in one building.
Bridge Industrial plans the 326,400-square-foot Bridge Point Flagler Station industrial campus on Ryder System’s former headquarters at 11690 Northwest 105th Street in unincorporated Miami-Dade. Ryder moved its headquarters to Coral Gables.
