David Beckham released a statement today confirming that his group was in contract to buy a property for a soccer stadium.
In addition to a four acre site at 650 NW 8th Street owned by Windsor Capital Corporation, Beckham is looking to acquire a portion of the Miami-Dade Water and Sewer Department across the street, south of the Windsor property. Beckham’s group signed a non-binding letter of intent to negotiate with the county for the land.
Beckham will ask the city to close off close off Seventh Street to create a nine acre assemblage, with underground parking. The group won’t be asking for a property tax exemption though, according to the Herald.
