    "beautiful views, but access to parks can be limited. the city often rents out the main park in the area, bayfront so it’s not available to the public, leaving museum park to be the only option. "

    "None whatsoever. This place is dirty, no respect for the neighbors , for people that live here. Always some party going on at the parks so it’s almost never available for the residents. And if it is it’s dirty and messed up. "

    "I love living downtown. It’s walkable to so many places and close by car to literally everything. It’s also gritty and up and coming which is important to me - it adds character and a sense of home for me. If you like urban, a little gritty, and totally walkable this is the best place in Miami by far. "
