Overview

• Gov. Ron DeSantis and the Florida Cabinet unanimously approved conveying a 2.63-acre state-owned parcel to the Donald J. Trump Presidential Library Foundation.
• Reporting pegs the parcel’s value at roughly $67 million, with the state’s sole condition requiring library components or construction to begin within five years.
• The site sits on a Miami Dade College parking lot beside the Freedom Tower, with state leaders touting education, tourism and economic benefits.
• Editorials highlight limited public input and note a rapid, low-notice Miami Dade College board vote that transferred the land to the state with scant details for trustees.
• Eric Trump publicly committed to building on the site, and local reporting says the team is considering adding a high-rise hotel as part of the development.
