Metro Parc Hialeah: 1,220 Homes Across Two Phases
Metro Parc is a two-phase, transit-oriented rental campus in Hialeah developed by Baron Property Group, and it is the clearest example I can point Miami buyers to of where Miami-Dade density is actually going. Phase one, at 952 East 26th Street, delivered 559 units in 2025 across a two-tower, 10-story building designed by Modis Architects with more than 15,000 square feet of ground-floor retail, according to the official Baron Property Group project page. Metro Parc North, at 901 East 26th Street, adds 661 units and roughly 2,000 square feet of retail, has topped out, and is scheduled for completion in late 2027, per the Metro Parc North project page. In August 2026 the first phase closed a $226.5 million refinancing while nearing 50 percent leased, according to Florida YIMBY. My read for buyers is simple: this is rental, not for sale, so nobody here is buying a unit. What it tells you is that the Hialeah Metrorail corridor is being treated as a real urban node, and that is the kind of signal I want clients watching before it shows up in condo pricing nearby.
A transit-oriented campus at the Hialeah Metrorail and Tri-Rail transfer stations by Baron Property Group. Phase one delivered 559 rental units in 2025; Metro Parc North adds 661 by late 2027, inside a planned 2.3 million square foot district.
The Hialeah Metrorail Corridor Becomes a District
"I cover Metro Parc because of what it signals, not because anyone can buy a unit in it. These are rentals, and I tell clients that plainly. But 1,220 apartments and roughly 2.3 million square feet planned around the Hialeah Metrorail and Tri-Rail transfer point is a bet that people in Miami-Dade will pay to live without a car. Hialeah has been an afterthought in the luxury conversation for as long as I have been in this business. When institutional capital puts $226.5 million into refinancing one phase and starts a second, that is a real change in how the corridor is valued, and it eventually reaches the for-sale product around it."Gerardo Gonzalez, Licensed Real Estate Agent at Compass
Metro Parc sits at 952 East 26th Street in Hialeah, next to the Hialeah Metrorail station and the Tri-Rail transfer point, and next to Hialeah Hospital. According to the official Baron Property Group project page, phase one is a 559-unit multifamily building with more than 15,000 square feet of ground-floor retail, arranged as two 10-story towers designed by Modis Architects. The unit mix is studios, one-bedrooms, and two-bedrooms. It was delivered in 2025.
The financing story is the reason this project resurfaced in the news. Florida YIMBY reported on August 16, 2026 that Baron Property Group closed a $226.5 million refinancing on phase one, replacing a $148 million construction loan from Post Road Group. Madison Realty Capital provided $125 million in senior financing and Yellowstone Real Estate contributed a $101.5 million preferred equity investment. HKS Real Estate Advisors and DIA Capital Group advised Baron, and Ben Suky of Bensco arranged the financing. At the time of the refinancing the property was nearing 50 percent leased.
Phase two is already vertical. According to the Metro Parc North project page, Metro Parc North at 901 East 26th Street will hold 661 units and roughly 2,000 square feet of ground-floor retail, with a mix running from studios to three-bedrooms. Florida YIMBY reports the Modis Architects-designed building topped out earlier in 2026 and is scheduled for completion in late 2027. Combined, the two phases account for more than two million square feet, and Baron describes the campus as the first piece of a broader 2.3 million square foot mixed-use plan around the two transit stations.
The amenity program at phase one is aimed squarely at renters who want to skip a car payment: a swimming pool with private cabanas, an outdoor courtyard with grills, a fitness center, coworking areas, bicycle storage, parking, and 24-hour concierge service. Metro Parc North is planned to follow the same standard, with a resort-style pool with private cabanas, a clubroom with a summer kitchen, and coworking spaces, per the developer. Mr. Baker, a Cuban bakery with nine Miami-area locations, is set to anchor the retail with a 1,760-square-foot store opening later in 2026.
To be direct about what this is and is not: Metro Parc is rental housing, so there is no unit here to buy, no deposit schedule, and no pre-construction contract. I track it because transit-oriented density at this scale changes the ground under the for-sale market nearby, and Hialeah is one of the last large Miami-Dade submarkets where that repricing has not fully happened.

Baron Property Group, MG Developer & Modis Architects
Baron Property Group, led by president and founder Matthew Baron, is developing both phases of the Metro Parc campus. Baron called the August 2026 refinancing a milestone that lets the firm build on the property's leasing momentum and continue its long-term plan for Hialeah, according to Florida YIMBY.
MG Developer partnered with Baron Property Group on the first phase, which closed a $148 million construction loan from Post Road Group before delivery in 2025. That loan was retired by the 2026 refinancing package.
Modis Architects designed both Metro Parc and Metro Parc North, giving the campus a consistent architectural language across roughly two million square feet on adjacent blocks of East 26th Street.
Madison Realty Capital provided $125 million in senior financing and Yellowstone Real Estate contributed $101.5 million in preferred equity in the August 2026 recapitalization, a bridge to permanent financing. HKS Real Estate Advisors and DIA Capital Group advised, and Ben Suky of Bensco arranged the deal.
August 2026: $226.5M Refinancing, Phase Two Topped Out
On August 16, 2026, Florida YIMBY reported that Baron Property Group closed a $226.5 million refinancing on the 559-unit first phase, which was nearing 50 percent leased. Immediately north, Metro Parc North has topped out and is scheduled for completion in late 2027. I update this section as verified milestones land.
