Brickell

Brickell is a neighborhood of Greater Downtown Miami, Florida, situated directly south of the historic CBD. Initially settled in the mid-19th century by early pioneers, Brickell became known as Miami's "Millionaire's Row" in the 20th century due to the lavish mansions constructed along Brickell Avenue by Mary Brickell, wife of William Brickell, the co-founder of Miami. By the 1970s, high rise apartments, hotels, and office towers began to replace the historic mansions. Presently, Brickell extends into the city's historic central business district to the north, making it one of the most important financial areas in the country. Brickell continues to experience a fast-growing population, as many people are attracted to Miami's warm weather, beautiful beaches, and buzzing nightlife. Most of Brickell is comprised of upscale residential high-rise buildings, many of them being luxury condominiums and apartment towers with secure entry. As you travel up Brickell Avenue and along Miami Avenue, you can find trendy Miami restaurants, shops and places of entertainment. Furthermore, you have Brickell Key, a gated island of upscale, high-rise residential and hotel towers, situated to the east of the northeastern side of Brickell.
