Miami-Dade is preparing to take a major step toward reshaping Brownsville’s affordable housing supply as plans advance for the redevelopment of Annie Coleman 15. The three-parcel site, which has slowly grown outdated, is slated for a full rebuild spearheaded by Miami-based Integra Solutions. The proposal calls for a 905-unit mixed-income community, including 144 public housing units to replace those previously demolished.
The redevelopment effort, which began after the County issued a Work Order Proposal Request in July 2023, ultimately drew only one respondent, Integra, making the firm as the sole developer for the project. Now moving through the approval pipeline, the plan hinges on a vote scheduled for January 21, 2026, which would officially grant development rights and allow the project to move into the next phase.
Located across three parcels at 5575 NW 27th Avenue, 2501 NW 58th Street, and 2200 NW 57th Street, the redevelopment will be built in multiple phases. Phase One focuses on 2501 NW 58th Street, which will be combined with an adjacent lot separately acquired by Integra Solutions. The merged site creates enough area to deliver 303 units, allowing all 144 displaced residents to return at the earliest date possible.
The first phase includes 88 one-bedroom, 70 two-bedroom, 123 three-bedroom, and 22 four-bedroom townhome units, offering a range of typologies for families of different sizes and income levels. Ground-floor plans call for 4,750 SF of retail space, while parking will be accommodated in an off-street garage with 359 spaces.
Phases two and three, situated at 5575 NW 27th Avenue and 2200 NW 57th Street, will deliver 332 and 270 units respectively. Layouts will span from one-bedroom, two-bedroom, three-bedroom, and townhome options. Integra Solutions has indicated that up to 20 townhomes may be offered for purchase on a fair-opportunity basis across the two phases. Combined, the developments will provide 548 parking spaces to accommodate residents, although a Metrorail station is close-by.
Across all phases, the 905-unit community will include 182 units at 30% of area median income (AMI), 270 at 60% AMI, 272 at 80% AMI, and 181 at 120% AMI. The buildings will range in height, rising 10, 8, 6, 5, or 2 floors depending on the location.
The redevelopment will offer a range of community amenities, including a study room with computer access, a fitness center, laundry facilities, an on-site police workstation, a playground, and a youth art center. Integra Solutions has also committed to hiring Section 3 residents for construction jobs, along with providing permanent employment opportunities for local residents.
Miami-Dade County intends to enter into a 99-year ground lease with Integra Solutions as part of the redevelopment agreement. The lease calls for an upfront payment of $9,050,000, followed by recurring payments over the lease. Between the ground lease revenue, developer fees, annual rent, and the County’s share of cash flow, the agreement is projected to generate around $386 million for Miami-Dade over the life of Integra’s lease.
As Miami-Dade amps the overhaul of aging affordable housing through the RAD program, Integra has emerged as a key player. Earlier this year, Floridian Development covered the firm’s plans for Annie Coleman 14 (not to be confused with Annie Coleman 15) where Integra Investments is preparing to transform nearly an entire block. The proposal introduces a mid-rise community that will also rehouse existing tenants while adding new mixed-income units.
