MIAMI Mayor Daniella Levine Cava joined Royal Caribbean Group and its partners late last week to celebrate the groundbreaking of the company’s new cruise terminal at PortMiami.
Miami-Dade County’s Board of Commissioners, PortMiami director & chief executive officer Hydi Webb, and Royal Caribbean Group chairman & chief executive officer Jason Liberty were among those who led the groundbreaking for the terminal, which will be able to accommodate up to 7,000 guests when it opens next year.
The new US$345 million (A$518 million) facility will include one berth, and will be delivered by a joint venture between Lemartec and NV2A in partnership with architects Perez & Perez.
Included as part of the facility will be a multi-level parking garage, an intermodal facility, and other critical infrastructure to support large cruise ships, such as Royal Caribbean’s gigantic Icon-class.
“This world-class facility will enhance Miami-Dade County’s skyline while marking another milestone in PortMiami’s evolution,” Levine Cava said. MS
