Palmetto Design Center in Miami Gardens Celebrates Grand Opening With Community Fun Day for All Ages

MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. (October 25, 2017)–On Saturday, Oct. 22nd, Palmetto Design Center, a new shopping center anchored by Walmart Neighborhood Market at 3791 NW 167th St. in Miami Gardens, hosted Community Fun Day to celebrate the grand opening of several new tenants including OPI Nails, Edible Arrangements and T-Mobile. The event provided the developers, Macken Companies and DZD Holdings, an opportunity to thank the City of Miami Gardens and local community for their support. A children’s DJ, stilt walker, unicyclist and juggler entertained the crowd while face painting and fire truck tours added to the fun.

Mayor Oliver Gilbert and Vice-Mayor Erhabor Ighodaro from the City of Miami Gardens participated in a ribbon-cutting ceremony, and the development team presented a check to Excelsior Charter Academy in the amount of $1,000. Dean of Students Anthony Harris accepted the check on behalf of the school. The new retailers, along with anchor tenant Walmart Neighborhood Market, showcased several outdoor displays and offered special promotions and free samples all morning.

“Macken Companies was happy to serve the Miami Gardens community by providing a positive and engaging experience for its local residents,” stated Alan S. Macken, principal, Macken Companies, co-developer, Palmetto Design Center. “We thank the City of Miami Gardens for their hard work and dedication, assisting us with the completion of this project. We are pleased to see the center so busy and that this new mix of tenants is already serving the community so well.”
