As More Companies Migrate to South Florida-Miami Commercial Real Estate Booms

April 12, 2022

As more companies migrate to south Florida, we are seeing more office spaces renting out, new mixed-use construction and now more than ever, new mixed-use projects. More recently, RAL Tricap Wynwood LLC has proposed a mixed-use twin tower project in the Wynwood Arts District.

Located at Northwest Fifth Avenue and 27th Street, these two 8 story buildings are proposed to have over 250,000 square feet of office and retail space. Dubbed the names, Wyn on 5th North and WYN on 5th South, this twin developments was review by the city in March 2022 and the developers are just waiting on final approvals.

Wyn on 5th North will feature 106,414 square feet of office plus 6,961 square feet of retail and 268 parking space with available bike spaces. Wyn on 5th South will showcase 139,254 square feet of offices, 16,000 square feet of retail, and 377 parking spaces. Each garage will be enclosed and will feature a roof deck.

The project was envisioned to encompass work and play into one creative space. The developer is looking to advertise to local and national companies who wish to be at the beginning stages of the Miami’s financial and tech scene.

According to the attorney, Steve Wernick, “Together, the buildings create a landmark arrival and visual gateway into the Wynwood Arts District from NW 5th Avenue, and significant public realm improvements that will enhance the connectivity and pedestrian experience of Wynwood – extending 24/7 activity to the Fifth Avenue corridor.”

The project itself will be designed Arquitectónica. Although the board recommended approval they still had some commend concerning the design, which were called “two decorated boxes.” They wish to see buildings that resembled more of what the Wynwood Design District is and what the area is all about. Another recommendation included the artwork on the exterior of the building to encompass the vibe of Wynwood.
