Mall bad for traffic

I am so proud of Miami-Dade Commissioners Xavier Suarez and Daniella Levine Cava for their votes Tuesday on American Dream Miami.

This insane megamall project is a boondoggle that will make traffic in the area and elsewhere in Miami-Dade impossible.

Traffic gridlock in Miami-Dade is everywhere already, with no planning for public transportation that gets people out of their cars. Bigger is not better. That has been proven so many times. I feel for the neighbors.
