Recognizing 2019 Project of the Year: Brightline / Virgin Trains USA

Brightline / Virgin Trains USA is a privately funded inter-city passenger rail and real estate development project. With its three stations across Miami, Fort Lauderdale, and West Palm Beach, including the project’s flagship mixed-use Miami Central station, which spans six blocks and 11 acres, providing 1 million+ square feet of residential, commercial, and retail space in Overtown, this transformative project is helping to usher in a new era of connectivity and transit-oriented development to the South Florida region.

Developed by All Aboard Florida, a subsidiary of Florida East Coast Industries, Brightline’s private investment of more than $1.8 billion has already generated significant economic impacts in our region, and is transforming key areas in all three counties into dynamic new hubs where residents and visitors can live, work, and play. These efforts have served as a positive catalyst, spurring interest, investment, and increased development from both the private and public sectors around the stations.

Project Team: Florida East Coast Industries, Virgin Trains USA / Brightline, Balfour Beatty, Skidmore Owings & Merrill, Zyscovich Architects, Suffolk, Moss, McKenzie Construction, AECOM, and AvroKO Design and Concept Firm
