ANF Group, Inc., a full-service construction firm providing construction management, general contracting, development, and design-build services, has been named the general contractor on Southpointe Vista, a two-phase affordable development by McDowell Housing Partners, bringing a total of 332 new units to Miami-Dade County’s Goulds community.

“We are delighted to be building this project to further the development of affordable housing options throughout the city, and bring much-needed housing to South Dade,” said Al Fernandez, President of ANF Group.

Located at 21255 SW 117th Court, the first phase of Southpointe Vista will feature a 10-story high-rise residential building, reserved for those earning up to 70% of area median income (AMI). The building will feature 124 affordable units including 91 one-bedrooms, 25 two-bedrooms, and eight 3-bedrooms. A two-story parking garage will connect to the building via skybridge and include 196 parking spaces plus 18 electric vehicle charging stations. Amenities will include community rooms, laundry facilities, a cybercafé, a fitness room, and on-site management offices.

Phase two is expected to bring a second 10-story building to the development consisting of 208 units, that will range from studios to 2-bedroom units. A pedestrian paseo will bisect the two buildings allowing pedestrians access to easily cross between 117th Court and SW 117th Avenue. A second two-story parking garage will feature 148 parking spaces and connect to the new building via skybridge as well.

This project was partly funded through Miami-Dade County’s Public Housing and Community Development Department with $2.5 million in surtax funds. Completion of phase 1 is expected during the fourth quarter of 2024.
