Info
The Inter Miami CF stadium is a proposed 25,000 seat soccer-specific stadium to be built in Miami, Florida for Inter Miami CF. While the location of the stadium is yet to be finalized, the team's ownership group led by David Beckham has expressed a desire to build on the Miami waterfront; other locations elsewhere in Miami have been offered as fallbacks.
Shortly after the team was announced in March 2014, the group presented a plan to build a 25,000-seat stadium at PortMiami, but opposition from port businesses led to the May 2014 announcement of a second location, on a reclaimed land at Museum Park, with a reduced capacity of 20,000, but that site was also rejected by the city of Miami. The team has announced its intent to build the stadium with mostly private funds. In December 2015, a private site was located, along with a commitment to purchase adjacent land owned by Miami-Dade Sewer, that would not seek public funds or tax breaks. However, that plan was also abandoned after the ownership group announced a desire for a larger site. The latest site, pending a referendum in 2018 and approval by the city commissioners, is a site near the Miami International Airport that would be part of a 131-acre (53 ha) multi-use development.
Major League Soccer has stated that a league approval of the Miami's expansion bid was conditional on the team securing a downtown stadium site.
