Brickell Avenue - A
mirror on the past.
Just
north of Brickell Point where the Miami River flows into Biscayne Bay,
you can see the statue of a proud Tequesta Indian. It stands as a homage
to the indigenous people who first settled this area. And in the 1870's,
along the same shores of this river, pioneers William and Mary Brickell
commenced development by operating their trading outpost. It was Mary
who first envisioned the Brickell we know today. A neighborhood of wide,
gently curving avenues with tree-lined medians and expansive water front
estates that would appeal to a young nation's landed gentry. So
prestigious did the area become, that before long it was referred to as
"Millionaire's Row." The mansions have since given way to
towering office buildings and luxury condominiums, yet Brickell is still
a center for trade and commerce, where the pioneering, entrepreneurial
spirit is alive and well.
Brickell Avenue A window on the future.
In
recent years, Brickell has come to the forefront of international
business and luxury living. Desire for waterfront property and
Brickell's emergence as Miami's cosmopolitan center have encouraged
considerable development and even grander plans for the future.
Certainly the significance of being the second largest booming
international financial center in the United States will further
stimulate Miami's entire downtown area and lure new residents and
business alike.
And just as diversity has always been
the key to Miami’s growth and success, so too is it the key to
Brickell's. Be it the wealth of cultural influences, the many
international business interests represented, or even the simple
contrast of the many modern office structures with quiet shady streets,
Brickell is a dynamic area that the world is recognizing as a leader for
the next century.
Brickell Avenue Windows on the world of
commerce.
One trip down Brickell Avenue and you're
sure to see why it is referred to as the "Wall Street of the
South." As a booming hub of world commerce, Brickell is home to
over 100 international and domestic financial institutions. It is the
country's second largest international banking center. This
proliferation, along with Brickell's proximity to the State and Federal
courthouses, has given rise to tremendous growth in the accounting and
legal professions as well, particularly real estate and trade law.
In
keeping with the pioneer spirit of William and Mary Brickell's trading
post, Miami has earned the respected title of Free Trade Capital of the
Americas. Rest assured, its prominence is not limited to Latin America.
Miami hosts more than 64 consulates from around the globe, 29
bi-national chambers of commerce and 21 foreign trade offices.
With over 5 million square feet of
office space, Brickell is adjacent to the Port of Miami and within
minutes of Miami International Airport, which services more scheduled
international flights than any other airport in the Western Hemisphere.
It's no surprise that when the world looks to the leader in
international commerce, all eyes are on Brickell.
Brickell Avenue Windows on the world of
luxury living.
Rising above the beautiful waters of
Biscayne Bay is one of the most unique and identifiable skylines in the
world. The luxury condominiums on exclusive Brickell Key and those that
line Brickell Avenue provide an incomparable life of luxury to their
residents. It seems only fitting that they be located on the same
precious strip of land that was once known as "Millionaire's
Row," in honor of the grand estates that stood upon it. Though much
has changed in the last 100 years, the friendly neighborhood charm of
Brickell endures.
During
2001 alone, almost 1,000 new apartments and condominium residences were
erected in the Brickell area and there are plans that will likely double
or triple that number in the next several years. As the area continues
to thrive, more and more people that work on Brickell are choosing to
live on Brickell. Why commute when there is such and incredible quality
of life just steps from the office?
And perhaps the greatest luxury enjoyed
by Brickell's diverse population of young professionals, empty nesters,
and international businesspeople is the sense of community that is so
rare in most urban settings. Brickell residents are secure knowing they
can jog, walk their dogs or simply take a nighttime stroll along the
streets of the neighborhood they call home.
