Guest r3nz0 Posted March 25 Report Share Posted March 25 but what do u think downtown life will be like in 5 years!!?!?!?!?!? Hopefully, much, much more prosperous.I think Nocturnal will improve the scene there. Not to hate, but I don't feel safe going to Space and leaving my car there.In my opinion, they need to build an indoor parking lot.But I do think downtown will see major improvements--call me an optimist.

ryan2772 Posted March 25 Report Share Posted March 25 it's such a shame, too, because there is so much property there that is pretty much completely unused. call me a pessimist, but i don't think much will develop. nightclubs/strip joints work, because the clientele (us) realize it's not too risky to go there, but the vast majority of the population just sees downtown miami as really scary.

Guest durrtylexx Posted March 25 Report Share Posted March 25 People are buying property like theres no tomorrow.I know they are going to build condo's and right now you can get a good deasl on a pre-construction prices.Downtown will be awesome in 5 or 7 years.South Beach will be more of a resort type place, hotels restaurants and few bars.And of course the where the rich will live.If you have money right now is the time to invest in downtown Miami. ;D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest pod Posted March 25 Report Share Posted March 25 As far as quality nightlife goes, Downtown is going to destroy south beach.The Beach will undoubtedly be reduced to hotels and bars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest pod Posted March 25 Report Share Posted March 25 Well, the thing with downtown is the area around Space is a designated entertainment district. The closest residencies are in the Park Place complex (that big tower to the SW)...and they've been there for quite awhile, and there's been zero complaints from them. So in other words, residencies cannot be built in that area, or if they can, the developers better realize what they are into. Unlike the Beach, the club (soon to be clubs) downtown have a lot of political clout, and it will be hard for them to be fucked with. The area is deliberately zoned in this fashion to head off any of the issues that the Beach has. Believe me, Downtown is gonna rock the Beach's world in a few years.

Guest coach Posted March 26 Report Share Posted March 26 It really depends on if Miami actually puts some services into that area, specifically parking.Pod, why do you think the clubs have so much clout in Miami? It's such a bigger city and they have such a smaller economic impact, comparatively. From what I've read, I have seen no evidence that the Miami commission is any more pro-nightlife than the Miami Beach one is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MyIbiza Posted March 26 Report Share Posted March 26 The indoor parking lot will be coming.The Performing Arts Center of Greater Miami will bring value to the city, better transportation, more security, more restaurants, more life to the downtown area.

Guest pod Posted March 26 Report Share Posted March 26 Well, Louis was one of the people to push the 24-hour zone through...not to mention his proximity to the mayor's office...the companies behind Space, and Nocturnal, swing a lot of weight at City Hall.Plus, heavyweights like Michael Capponi are establishing ventures over that way. In the next year or so there are at least 4 clubs slated to open, as well as the aforementioned restaurants and bars and stores...Like I've stated before, I'm all for a scene downtown. It makes for a bit more diversity, and a more urban feel. Maybe it's because I've been around these parts for awhile, but the whole South Beach thing is starting to get lost on me...maybe it's too touristy...that's the nice thing about Downtown, as well...your average tourist isn't going there at the moment.

Guest durrtylexx Posted March 26 Report Share Posted March 26 Elitist lmao dude I'm not buying bottles of Veuve Clicquot @ Pearl, but Washington Ave is out of control and its getting worse.I have lived most of life in Miami, now residing in Ft.Lauderdale and its a sad sad thing to see parts of Miami flourish and see others diminish.Its a shame that September 11th f**ked up the world.We need more tourists and the streets should be cleaned.Maybe I'm just a little snobby .
