Baron Begins Miami-Area Luxury Project
This transit-oriented property will rise next to the Metrorail station in Hialeah.
Baron Property Group, a Miami- and New York-based developer, has broken ground on a 661-unit luxury multifamily property adjacent to the Metrorail station in Hialeah, Fla. Metro Parc North will rise next to Hialeah Hospital, one of the largest hospitals in Florida.
Located at 983 E. 26th St., Metro Parc North is next to Metro Parc, Baron Property Group’s 559-unit mixed-use development with more than 15,000 square feet of retail. The two transit-oriented projects will have nearly 2 million square feet of upscale apartments and retail space.
Metro Parc has not yet opened, although move-ins will begin soon. In November, RKW Residential was tapped to provide management and leasing at the property. A joint venture between Baron Property Group, MG Developer and Township Capital obtained $148 million in construction financing for Metro Parc in September 2022. Baron Property Group recently bought out MG Developer’s interest in the two properties.
Matthew Baron, president and founder of Baron Property Group, told Multi-Housing News the company, “sees Hialeah as the county’s next great real estate destination.”
“Its prime location adjacent to mass transit and rich cultural heritage make it an ideal place for families and young professionals alike,” he said. “This project isn’t only about building quality luxury homes—it’s about shaping the future of Hialeah as a vibrant, multi-generational community.”
Audent Global Asset Management, a full-service, boutique investment advisory firm, is also an investor in Metro Parc North. The development, designed by Modis Architects and built by KAST Construction, is expected to be completed in the third quarter of 2027.

Baron described Metro Parc North as a “full-service, highly amenitized residential experience complete with all the touches essential to modern luxury living, such as concierge services, a hotel-like pool and coworking spaces.”
The building will have studios to three-bedroom residences ranging from 500 to 1,250 square feet. The units will have open-concept floor plans, luxury vinyl flooring, designer kitchens with stainless steel appliances, full-size washers and dryers, spacious closets and private balconies. Other community amenities will include pool-side private cabanas, summer kitchens, a multi-purpose clubroom, bike storage, a pet grooming station and controlled-access parking.
Metro Parc North will also have approximately 3,500 square feet of retail space with tenants to be announced shortly.
The diverse neighborhood is seeing a rise in residential and commercial development. Residents and tourists can visit major parks including Amelia Earhart Park and Hialeah Park as well as popular restaurants including La Fonda and El Palacio de los Jugos.
