Downtown Miami

As a result of the condo boom, Downtown Miami has been transformed into a residential neighborhood overnight. The City of Miami has made considerable investments in renovating Biscayne Boulevard and building the American Airlines Arena in Downtown Miami. In addition to the Arena, along the bay there is Bayfront Park, Bicentennial Park, and the Bayside Marketplace and Marina. Bicentennial Park is currently undergoing a renovation to be renamed Museum Park for the construction of the new Miami Art Museum and the Miami Science Museum. This area continues to grow as more residents and businesses move into the area. Most of the buildings in Downtown Miami offer amazing views of Biscayne Bay, the Port of Miami, and Miami Beach as they are situated along Biscayne Boulevard. Some of the more well known developments are:

Brickell

Brickell was the first neighborhood in Miami to have high rise condos which were constructed during the "cocaine cowboys" days of the 80's. As a result, Brickell is a much more residential neighborhood than Downtown Miami and is currently a mix of new buildings and older developments, with most of the newer buildings being located closer to the Miami River. At center of Brickell is the newly constructed Mary Brickell Village, a commercial development that is home to restaurants, shops, bars, and a large supermarket. Additionally, Brickell is home to the largest concentration of international banks anywhere in the US. Some of the popular condo buildings in Brickell are:

Brickell Key

Brickell Key is a triangular shaped island located at the mouth of the Miami River. Technically, it is located within Miami's Brickell neighborhood. Brickell Key is a master planned community designed by Swire Properties, a Hong Kong based property development firm, who purchased the land in the late 1970's and has developed most of the buildings on the island. Most of the units on the island have wonderful views of the water. Brickell Key is a peaceful place to live without all the downtown hustle and bustle. Some popular buildings here are:

Miami Arts District / Midtown Miami

The Miami Arts District is home to the Adrienne Arsht Center for the Performing Arts and several bayfront condo developments. It is bounded by the Julia Tuttle Causeway to the North and the MacArthur Causeway to the South. Midtown Miami is a self-contained residential and commercial development located north of Downtown, but south of the Design District.

The Arts District offers the most reasonable pricing on condos in Greater Downtown Miami and there are some spectacular new developments where you can have a wonderful view of the bay and the newly renovated Margaret Pace Park.
