With a large population of hip young residents, Brickell shines at night. Many of its hot bars, restaurants, and dance clubs stay open until the wee hours of the morning.
If you’re wondering whether Brickell has always been a lap of luxury — yes. In the late 19th century, the neighborhood was founded by a wealthy couple who bought property and opened a local trading post. In the 1920s, wealthy families scouted out Brickell and cut the tape on construction projects for beautiful homes, many of them concentrated in “Millionaire’s Row.” Eventually, Brickell’s urban development outpaced those mansions, and the city became the place it is today.
Many busy young professionals call Brickell home, and visitors also love the area and flock here in droves to enjoy the happening scene. Residents tend to work hard and play hard, the expectation being that the city is as dynamic as you. The city around them is a collage of luxury cars, high-end condos, vivid art galleries, and towering commerce.
