Florida officials voted unanimously on Tuesday to locate President Donald Trump’s presidential library at Miami Dade College, the president’s son Eric Trump announced.
Republican Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis and other top state officials agreed to donate 2.63 acres of the property to Eric Trump’s non-profit, the Donald J. Trump Presidential Library Foundation, in order for the future library to be built, according to the governor’s office’s press release. The president’s son said on X that the building will be “one of the most beautiful buildings ever built” and an “icon to the Miami skyline.”
“I am extremely proud to announce a UNANIMOUS vote by the Florida Cabinet for the conveyance of land for the @realDonaldTrump Presidential Library which will be located in… MIAMI, FLORIDA! It will be the greatest Presidential Library ever built, honoring the greatest President our Nation has ever known. A large thank you to @GovRonDeSantis & @AGJamesUthmeier who have been incredible partners in this endeavor. Consistent with our families DNA, this will be one of the most beautiful buildings ever built, an Icon on the Miami skyline – – rest assured it will not look like President Obama ‘prison like structure.’”
DeSantis said he is honored for the future library to be located in his state, according to the press release.
“Having the Trump Presidential Library in Miami will be good for Florida, for the city, and for Miami Dade College,” DeSantis said. “No state has supported the President’s agenda more than the Free State of Florida, and I was proud to spearhead the successful effort to house this historic presidential library right here in his home state.”
Republican Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier stated that he is anticipating the “patriotic stories the Trump Library Foundation will showcase for generations to come,” according to the press release.
The parcel of land is currently being used as an employee parking lot for the college’s Wolfson Campus, according to the press release.
Trump changed his primary residence from New York City to Palm Beach, Florida, in Sept. 2019. He won the state during all three of his presidential campaigns.
