The Liberty City Rising revitalization initiative will create an estimated 2,290 jobs. Miami-Dade County established the Employ Miami-Dade program to train and assist in the hiring of residents from the Liberty City Rising zip codes 33142 and 33147, to address the high unemployment rate in this neighborhood.

May 23—Following Terrance 'Uncle Tee' Smith through the streets of Liberty Square is like a masterclass in being a hometown hero. Drivers beep as he cruises by on his bike, one hand on the handle bars, the other holding a brown bagged Corona. He shouts jokes at construction workers grabbing gear from their cars. Anyone in earshot gets invited to try his famous barbecue.

'They used to call me the mayor of Liberty Square,' he quips, a smile forming across his lips.

It's been nearly four decades since Smith lived in the Pork 'n Beans — the nickname for what's now referred to as Liberty Square — yet his presence within the community remains solid. In 1983, the bombing of a U.S. Marine barrack in Beirut claimed the life of his older brother, Kirk. But it came with a $70,000 check that allowed the then-18-year-old Smith and his mother, Barbara, to buy a home in Liberty City. A second check, as part of a judgment against the Iranian Government, gave him the cash flow to purchase a building that he turned into a pool hall — just blocks away from his old home.

Located in central Dade just west of Interstate 95, Liberty City occupies four square miles on some of the highest ground in Miami-Dade County. A little more than 26,000 people call the neighborhood home, roughly 69% of whom are Black — a percentage that has steadily shrunk over the years.

At the heart of the neighborhood is Liberty Square, the first public housing project in the southeastern United States when it was built in 1937.

A new city

The Liberty Square where Smith grew up, however, in is not the Liberty Square of today. In 2015, it was infused with a $300 million investment as part of the Liberty City Rising project to convert the once notorious project into mixed-used housing. New zoning rules six blocks south of the site will also allow for eight-story high buildings and the possibility of commercial stores like a Publix supermarket.

The changes, coupled with the neighborhood's shifting demographics and gentrification, worries not just Smith but many in Liberty City who believe their community's identity will soon be forgotten.

'All it's gone be is a story to tell,' Smith, 57, said.

Still, Smith has hopes that Liberty Square's transformation will help curb the violence that brings negative headlines while ushering a new era of prosperity. And that, in Miami and abroad, usually comes with a decreased Black population.

That's why, despite calls from would-be buyers, Smith has no intentions of selling his building. The pool hall, which he named Barbara & Kirk's in honor of his deceased family, not only bridges the gap between the Liberty City of old and new but also shows the community the power of Black ownership.

Five blocks east, on the corner of Northwest 55th Street and Seventh Avenue, that message of Black ownership comes through clearly at The Roots Collective Black House. A grass-roots organization dedicated to creating economic stability within Black and brown communities, The Roots Collective offers a print shop, event space and an array of creative services. Its exterior features a mural paying homage to the Black Panthers, Nipsey Hussle and the Black Wall Street — a blast of energy on a once- popular business corridor that never recovered from the 1980 McDuffie Riots, says Roots Collective founder Danny Agnew.

'Ownership is important to us, seeing how things are changing around here,' Agnew said.

Though The Black House building is still under lease, Agnew intends to eventually purchase it. In the meantime, he envisions it as a hub for Black Miami's sense of community. Among its projects is a community fridge two doors down the street where anyone in need can grab food; high schoolers work as interns to understand the business. Students can also participate in a range of seminar courses on topics including entrepreneurship and gentrification.

The ultimate goal, says co-founder Isaiah Thomas, is for The Black House to be a safe haven for the neighborhood long after the founders are gone.

'Liberty City, man, they can't take that away from us — it's ours,' said Thomas, who spent some of younger years in Liberty City. 'They can close up the projects, rebuild them and it's still gone be Liberty City. The people, the vibes, the energy still gone be there.'

The untold story

An outsider might see Liberty City as having little to offer.

The local public schools have 'C' grades. Crime has been a persistent issue for decades. Poverty remains high.

Liberty City residents believe the history of neglect by government and slumlords helped create a community where the poverty rate sits at nearly 32%, more than double that of Miami-Dade County and the state of Florida. Where the unemployment rate sits just above 15%, a few ticks higher than the national pandemic high of 14.8 and much greater than the most recent Miami-Dade figure of 8.2. Where the high school graduation rate of those 25 and older is 72% versus 81.4% countywide.

But these issues don't define Liberty City. The real story of Liberty City — the one that's less visible on news broadcasts, the one that's a bit more difficult to find, the one that really shows the neighborhood's beauty — is how residents have survived.

'There's a will to fight through the adversity in spite of the condition,' said Liberty City native Darryn Ferguson.

At the heart of that resiliency lies a longing to see the next generation do better than their parents. The spirit of resiliency binds residents in common purpose.

'The people of Liberty City are kind, loving,' said Elaine Black, the president of the Liberty City Trust. 'They care about their community and they care about others that live in their community.'

It can be seen in the way residents relax on the front porch of their quaint, one-story homes, keeping a watchful eye on the neighborhood. At Broadway Park, where domino games are played endlessly beneath towering trees and murals plastered on the buildings lining NW 18th Avenue. Around smokers like the one Smith owns at the corner of NW 15th Ave and 62nd Terrace, where locals unwind after a long day of work, the savory smell of barbecue filling their lungs.

Liberty City 'is the best place to work, play and do business,' said Black.

She isn't the only one who believes that. In 2015, the County began a multi-million dollar plans to revitalize Liberty City. Called Liberty City Rising, the project aims to raise 'the standard of living for residents and creating opportunities to earn a decent living,' according to the County website.

At the initiative's core was transformation of Liberty Square, a sprawling housing development spanning the area between Northwest 12th Avenue to 15th Avenue and 62nd to 67th streets. By the time the final phase is completed by 2023, the complex will feature 1,455 units, 640 of them reserved for public housing. The other 815 will be a mix of affordable, workforce and market-rate units.

Two phases have already been completed. Those who live there sing its praises.

'I done stayed in the heart of everything — Liberty City, [Brownsville], Opa-locka, whatever you want — but I never found nothing like this,' said Melinda Tellis who moved to Liberty Square in March.

Liberty Square isn't the area's only change. A Dunkin' Donuts recently opened on the corner of Northwest 62nd Street and 12th Avenue. Collective 62, an artist-run space owned by Argentina-born Nina Surel, opened in 2017. House are being bought, modernized and rapidly flipped.
