Great news for everyone in Kendall! The Greenery Mall, also known as Dadeland Square, has a new owner. Located at 7700 N. Kendall Dr., this well-known spot has been acquired by Dadeland Greenery LP from Cofe ZM Dadeland LLC for $58 million.

Greenery Mall Redevelopment Plans

So, what does this mean for the mall? The new owners have some exciting plans in store. They aim to make the mall even more lively and attractive for both current and new tenants.

Situated on Kendall Drive and the Palmetto Expressway, just west of Dadeland Mall, it’s a prime spot for growth and development.

This redevelopment could also bring more traffic to Kendall. While the potential for increased congestion, especially with a charter school across the street, is a concern, the improvements to the mall could still benefit the community and might even help boost home values in the area.

Potential Impact on Home Values

Why could this boost home values? A revitalized and vibrant mall can make the neighborhood more desirable by providing convenient shopping, dining, and entertainment options. Improved amenities and an attractive, well-maintained commercial area often make the surrounding residential areas more appealing to potential buyers.

Currently, the mall's appearance is quite dated and dingy inside, with a need for a modern vibe. The woodsy ceilings make one feel like they’re entering a wilderness lodge, minus the stuffed moose or bear heads on the walls. 

A fresh, contemporary redesign could significantly enhance the mall's appeal and, in turn, positively impact the surrounding community.

Historical Significance and Future Plans

Grennery Mall Redevelopment in Kendall FL
The Greenery Mall spans 8.38 acres and features 129,585 square feet of street-level retail space, along with an eight-story office building offering an additional 84,913 square feet.

It was one of the first mixed-use projects in South Florida and was ahead of its time when established in the late 1980s. Some of the initial retailers included major names like Publix, Marshalls, and various specialty stores that catered to the growing Kendall area.

Additionally, the mall is located within the Kendall SMART Plan Mixed-Use Corridor and the Rapid Transit Activity Corridor. These designations mean the area is set to support a mix of residential, commercial, and transit-oriented developments, making it easier for people to live, work, and shop in the same area. The proximity to the Dadeland South Metrorail Station and the South Dade TransitWay Bus Terminal enhances its accessibility, encouraging more use of public transportation and potentially easing some of the traffic concerns.

The goal is to make the mall an even better place for everyone by bringing in a mix of exciting, modern retailers, restaurants, and entertainment options.

~ Willy and Gloria P.

Liz was the listing agent for a Miami property I called on and made an appointment to see . That's how it all started.I wasn't working with any agent and I told Liz I didn't want to commit to anyone. She stated she understood, nevertheless, she was relentless in keeping in touch with me. Finally, in one of her phone calls, Liz asked me if she was working hard to get my business ? I said yes, of course. Then she stated, "Imagine, what I am capable of doing in finding and negotiating for you in a tough and competitive Miami market?". That clinched it !

 

~ Arile R.

We trusted her strategy and ended up buying the property that we were initially turned down on. You can say Liz turned that No into a Yes for less money! She is relentless. Thank you, Liz, you are a hard worker, trustworthy, on top of your game and simply a pleasure to team up with you

 

~ Alex Y.

As a business man, one of the things that impressed me about Liz is is her negotiation skills, patience and cool under pressure. She looks for a win-win even though at times we were just being one sided. Liz reminded us it's a sellers' market with properties selling quickly at or little above asking price in the area we wanted to buy.Whatever we weren't familiar with, Liz simplified it so we felt comfortable and understood the transaction.

 

~ Vincent S.

"...One of her best qualities is her ability to stand back, listen to your needs, present you all the alternatives and let you make the original decisions. She is not assertive with her opinion but when she says you better listen because it will be in your own best interest..."

Ms Liz Keneally was a angel sent. I was going through personal hardship. And having a hard time not only selling The property but with the result of impending foreclosure. Which at the time was a very difficult time in my life. And she came along. And got a contract within a week. And I have nothing but gratitude towards her and her team. That treated me and my children like family.

 

~ Xenia L.

Liz has been a wonderful real estate agent for us. She is an excellent communicator, and communicates in a very timely manner. Liz provided easy to understand comparisons when we had multiple offers for the property that we were selling. Liz makes sure that all the details are taken care of, and most importantly perseveres in resolving the many issues that arise in a real estate transaction. We have been extremely happy with the work that Liz has done for us. We would highly recommend her for anyone who is seeking to sell or buy property.

She was easy to communicate with and took the time to educate me.There were times, we had to negotiate and Liz always made sure to keep the deal alive, while protecting my interests. I have only wonderful things to say about her and would work with her again.

Her calmness and verbal prowess ultimately helped me secure my very first home! Thank you, Liz!
