TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) — Florida officials decided Tuesday to set aside nearly three acres of prime downtown Miami real estate next to the historic Freedom Tower as a potential site of the future presidential library of President Donald Trump.
Tuesday’s conveyance gives the Donald J. Trump Presidential Library Foundation, Inc., control over a developer’s dream property.
“It will be the greatest Presidential Library ever built, honoring the greatest President,” Eric Trump said in a social media post.
Locations associated with Florida Atlantic University in Boca Raton and Florida International University in suburban Miami had previously been floated as potential library sites.
DeSantis signed a bill this year preempting local governments from blocking development of a presidential library, aiming to overrule potential opposition in liberal-leaning counties or municipalities.
