That area needs some bars and more restaurants as well as a hotel or two like yesterday.

Yes marc, yes. While looking at the photos, I was thinking to myself “this place should be clubland.”

That metallic paper looks worthy of a trailer park Christmas.

This is what you get because the place is just built for shopping.

Honestly start putting Benjamins on the trees and maybe it’ll get some people and feel like a real neighborhood.

Cheap and tacky decoration for a 5 Star destination. On the other hand they need eating and drinking (and dancing) places to attract more foot traffic.

So far it’s a failure. The streetlights in the next block of NE 40th in heart of District have been off for 4 months. The adjacent area continues to have a wasteland look. The stores are waiting for the second phase to open in January which will double the size and add 5 restaurants and a food hall and the new ICA museum. Who knows if it will work. A small hotel will open in a year. There should have been multiple hotels and condo towers included like at BCC which is now bustling with customers.

Haute couture stores tend to close early to lock up the merchandise. You can see it in Aventura and Dadeland. What’s needed are more upscale restaurants and bars.
