Work Begins on Front Entrance to the Upcoming Me by Melia Hotel at Marquis Residences

January 9, 2015

Work has begun on the front entrance to what later this year will become the Me by Melia Hotel.  Yesterday afternoon, while out running errands in the neighborhood, I noticed fencing marking off the perimeter for the project.  The area located immediately in front of Marquis Residences, and running parallel to Biscayne Boulevard, will see a complete redesign, including new landscaping.  The rendering found  at the end of this post shows what the finished project will look like.  Notice the outdoor dining area and bar for the Rebel by STK restaurant.  The one thing that Downtown Miami is lacking is a selection of fine dining options.  Where others have failed, I hope to see Rebel by STK succeed.  The neighborhood will see a complete transformation in coming years, so perhaps the timing is perfect.
