E11EVEN Hotel & Residences Reservations Now Being Converted to Contracts; Promo Video

Life is to be lived 24/11

With over 90% of the units at E11EVEN Hotel & Residences already reserved, the developer is moving full steam ahead. Earlier this week, emails were sent out to those who reserved a unit to notify them that reservations are now being converted to contracts. That’s only six weeks after their “whisper” campaign began…quite an accomplishment when you think about it.

Additionally, the developer’s marketing team released an electrifying promo video entitled “Life is to be lived, around the clock”. I’ve watched it many times and it still gives me goosebumps.

Groundbreaking for E11EVEN Hotel & Residences is slated for fall of this year.

The new Miami brewery Cervecería La Tropical, named after the historic Cuban brewery, Cervecería, was first opened in 1888 in Havana but was seized by the Cuban government in the 1960’s. Located at 42 N.E. 25th Street in the Wynwood Arts District, this brewery will feature an on-site brewing operation with tour, taproom, restaurant, and outdoor botanical garden. 

This state of the art brewery has an annual brewing capacity of 32,000 hectoliters per year and can house up to 800 craft beers. According to Brewbound, the brewery will be led by Brew Master Matt Weintraub, who is a graduate and award winner of the Florida International University Brewing Program.

Is Miami Going to Become the Next Silicon Valley? If it’s up to Mayor Francis Suarez, it Will Be.

Since the infamous tweet from Miami’s own Mayor Francis Suarez in early December of 2020, he has become very creative in his attempts at recruitment of relocating big tech and financial companies to Miami.

According to CNBC, the “How can I help?” tweet generated more that 2.3 million organic impressions. “It gave me the impetus and energy and incentive to keep tweeting and connecting at a very high rate,” Suarez said.  From December 2020 alone, he has had more than 27 million impressions on his account and he hasn’t stopped there.

In his latest marketing efforts, commuters in San Francisco were greeted by their usual sign but this one had a different message. “Thinking about moving to Miami? DM me,” was sprawled across the billboard that resembled a tweet.

Mayor Francis Suarez's billboard in San Francisco target big tech companies to relocate to Miami.

This particular signage is right above the 9th Street exit off westbound I-80 that leads to Twitter’s San Francisco headquarters. The only information we do know is that Twitter employees are currently working remotely until the end of summer 2021.

His campaign seems to be working with a few known tech giants and companies committing to relocating to Miami. Keith Rabois, former executive of Square and Paypal, David Blumber-Manager of Blumberg, and Scott Absher- CEO of ShiftPixy are just a few.

“My job is… to make sure people understand this is not a moment. This is a movement,” he said. “We’re going to continue to do everything we can to attract the entrepreneurial and intellectual class of our country to Miami to create high-paying jobs in a city like ours that wants to continue to grow,” says Mayor Suarez.
