Overview

• On September 30, 2025, the Florida Cabinet voted unanimously to convey a downtown Miami site to The Donald J. Trump Presidential Library, Inc.
• The roughly 2.63–3 acre parcel, valued at about $66–$67 million, sits beside the Freedom Tower and has been used by Miami Dade College for employee parking.
• The agreement requires the property to include presidential library or museum components, or for construction toward that purpose to begin within five years.
• Control of the site shifts to a foundation led by trustees Eric Trump, Michael Boulos and James Kiley, who celebrated the decision publicly.
• Activists, students and faculty protested the location and raised concerns about potential non-library uses, while state officials pointed to tourism and economic benefits and noted a recent law limiting local government opposition to presidential libraries.
