The project, a joint venture between Rock Soffer of Turnberry Associates and Elion Partners, along with members of the Sredni family, will break ground later this month. It will also feature additional retail, including several boutique restaurants.

Miami Beach residents can also expect to see the store's Fearless Flyer, a newsletter offering recipes, tips, and monthly specials.

This will be the second Trader Joe's in Miami-Dade. The first Trader Joe's opened in Pinecrest in October 2013, causing pandemonium with shoppers clamoring for Two Buck Chuck and Speculoos Cookie Butter.

Previously, rumors have swirled about Trader Joe's coming to Miami Beach. In 2014, the chain squashed talk that a shop would open in the former Lucky Strike space. This is the first confirmation that, indeed, Trader Joe's is coming to SoBe.
