Apollo Cos.' Proposed 800 Medical Tower 760x320

Miami officials gave Apollo Cos. permission to construct a medical office building in the Health District, close to the biggest hospitals in the city.

The project will be constructed on a 20,656-square-foot plot at 800 N.W. 15th St., which is on the north side of the major Dolphin Expressway/State Road 836, by the Aventura-based developer via affiliate 800 Medical Tower LLC. In July 2023, the developer paid $7 million for the site which included a one-story office building, which he later demolished.

According to Apollo Cos. CEO Edward Abbo, 800 Medical Tower’s 170,255 square feet across 14 stories and 187 parking spaces were approved. The first floor would have a lobby and 4,665 square feet of retail space. Floor plates for the medical office space would range from 8,914 to 13,251 square feet, and they would be located on levels seven through fourteen.

Miami-based Caymares Martin designed the building.

According to Abbo, he has applied to the city for a building permission and expects to receive it in four months. He stated there is a lot of interest from medical tenants, but he hasn’t decided if the medical office space would be leased or sold as office condos.

According to him, medical tenants are losing space as the University of Miami Health System and Jackson Health System grow inside their current structures. These tenants now require additional medical office space.

Jackson Health System in Miami is readying a $300 million expansion of its main emergency department, more than tripling the size of the facility at its flagship hospital.

Jorge L. Garciga, director of facilities design and construction at the public health system for Miami-Dade County, said the new two-story ED would total 130,000 square feet. The project will also include the renovation of the existing ED, which totals about 45,000 square feet.

JHS would fund the project with proceeds from operations.

The new ED will be designed to triage patients faster and reduce wait times. Instead of having one entrance on 18th Street, the new facility would have an adult entrance on 19th Street and a pediatric entrance on 18th Street. Plans include 207 rooms, including 50 observation rooms and seven patient rooms, plus a host of exam and behavioral health rooms.

On Friday, Jackson Health System announced plans for the Shriners Children’s Orthopedic Center at its health district campus. The center, a partnership with the University of Miami and Shriners Children’s Florida, which runs the Tampa hospital, will house all pediatric orthopedic care when it opens in 2025.

The partnership started a year and a half ago, said Daniel Armstrong, director of the UM Mailman Center for Child Development. The CEO of the Tampa Shriners hospital approached him about collaborating in Miami.

The orthopedic center will be located east of Northwest 12th Avenue at Northwest 16th Street, steps from Holtz Children’s Hospital and the new Ronald McDonald House.

“Just like the exceptional care I received from Shriners Children’s Florida, the Shriners Orthopedic Center at Jackson will offer hope and healing to children all around South Florida,” Solano said.

The center, Armstrong said, will allow Jackson to provide orthopedic care and rehabilitation while also addressing the developmental needs of kids with conditions like cerebral palsy. It will enhance physical and occupational therapy and fill in some of the services Jackson has difficulty providing.

“We’ll be able to provide comprehensive care to all children, but we’ll be able to do it in a highly integrated one-stop coordinated fashion,” he said. The grant from Shriners Children’s Florida will build a pediatric orthopedics program that can treat both conditions like muscular dystrophy and traumatic injuries, said Carlos Migoya, CEO of Jackson Health System.
