Resorts World Miami

Resorts World Miami is the name of a major 13.9-acre (5.6-hectare) development proposed for the Omni District of Greater Downtown Miami, Florida, USA, by the Malaysian-based Genting Group. At 10,000,000 square feet (930,000 m2) and with an estimated cost of US$3.2 billion, it is considered one of the largest developments in the history of the state. The project was postponed several times as gambling measures failed at the state level. As of August, 2017, the property remains cleared, but no development has begun. As a concession for rights to build the large Casino project, Genting has proposed to build the long-sought BayLink system as a monorail linking Miami to Miami Beach, connecting to a new Metromover station within their project.

It will contain bars and nightclubs, a luxury galleria consisting of vast amounts of retail, entertainment and convention space as well as other unique amenities, including one of the largest swimming pools in the world.[1] Two condominium towers will also have 1000 units each.[2]
