Wynwood 

Wynwood will soon be the SOHO of Miami

Once a run down neighborhood, turned into artsy / trendy and then into a neighborhood full of new condo developments 

Once a neglected neighborhood on the outskirts of Miami, Wynwood has undergone a remarkable transformation in recent years to become a vibrant and eclectic hub of art, culture, and innovation. In the early 20th century, Wynwood was a bustling industrial district, home to factories, warehouses, and textile mills. However, by the mid-20th century, the area had fallen into decline, and many of the businesses that once thrived there had closed down. For years, the neighborhood remained a neglected and forgotten corner of Miami, with little investment or attention from the city. But in the early 2000s, a group of artists and entrepreneurs saw the potential in Wynwood's abandoned warehouses and empty streets.

Led by visionary developer Tony Goldman, they set out to transform the neighborhood into a thriving arts district. Over the years, they transformed the area into a canvas for street artists, with colorful murals and graffiti covering every available surface. Today, Wynwood is home to some of the best-known street artists in the world, and its walls and buildings are a constantly evolving gallery of urban art. 

But the neighborhood is much more than just a street art destination. In recent years, Wynwood has become a magnet for tech startups, entrepreneurs, and creative professionals, drawn by its vibrant energy and entrepreneurial spirit. Today, the neighborhood is home to a thriving ecosystem of startups, coworking spaces, and incubators, as well as a growing community of artists, designers, and creatives. And as the neighborhood has evolved, so too has its culture and identity. Today, Wynwood is a diverse and eclectic mix of people, cultures, and ideas, with a rich and vibrant arts scene, a growing tech sector, and a sense of community and belonging that is rare in a city as large and diverse as Miami.

From its humble beginnings as an industrial district on the outskirts of Miami, Wynwood has become a cultural and creative powerhouse, a symbol of the city's resilience, creativity, and innovation, and a testament to the power of community and collaboration.

Known for its many colorful murals, Wynwood is one of the city’s most happening districts. Wynwood Walls is an outdoor museum showcasing large-scale works by some of the world’s best-known street artists. The surrounding streets have converted warehouses housing craft breweries and funky art galleries. A hip young crowd frequents the neighborhood’s chic clothing boutiques, stylish bistros and late-night bars.
