Brickell Real Estate

Brickell Real Estate & Homes for Sale in Florida

With a beautiful and convenient location in Miami and the community’s renewed interest in developing luxurious living complexes, Brickell is on its way to becoming Miami’s version of Manhattan. The area, located in the southeastern portion of downtown Miami, was once dominated by financial institutions and high-rise office buildings. Development over the last several years has added a new dynamic to the area. Trendy shops, fine restaurants and entertainment centers have opened up, and new, luxury condominium complexes are selling out fast. The vision for the city is a community in which residents are walking distance from all the conveniences, from supermarkets to fine arts performances. To promote foot traffic on the sidewalks and give the community a lively feel, several high-rise condominium buildings have cafés and shops at the street level. Approximately 5,000 people live in the Brickell area, and the population consists mainly of young professionals, international business people, downtown administrative personnel and ‘empty-nesters.’ Brickell attractions include the Miami Convention Center, River Walk, Bayside Marketplace, the Performing Arts Center of Greater Miami and the Metro-Dade Cultural Center. The cultural center includes a library, historical museum and the Center for Fine Arts. Students in grades K-12 attend schools of the Dade County School District. Several colleges and universities – including the University of Miami – provide higher education in the area. Brickell real estate consists of single-family detached homes, estate properties, condominiums and townhouses.
