There’s no denying the magnetism of Miami. This south Florida city has always been a cultural hub on the east coast, but in recent years, it’s also become quite the hotspot for singles, with Brickell becoming a standout neighborhood for the young and unattached. And while you may know why Miami has consistently drawn young professionals to its shores, what’s so special about Brickell might just surprise you:
Great shopping: If you need a great date night outfit in Miami and live in Brickell, you’re in luck. Brickell is one of the city’s premier shopping destinations, home to Brickell City Centre, a luxury shopping center that boasts stores like Agent Provocateur, Apple, Bally, Bruno Magli, Chopard, Emporio Armani, Giuseppe Zanotti, Intermix, Kendra Scott, and more. The neighborhood is also home to The Shops at Mary Brickell Village, home to some of the city’s best salon services, courtesy of Blush Brickell, Blo Blow Dry Bar, Massage Envy, and Spa & Nail Fever.
Top-tier restaurants: Looking for a great first date spot? Look no further than Brickell. Restaurants like Edge Steak & Bar at the Four Seasons Hotel, The River Seafood & Oyster Bar, Bachour Bakery + Bistro, and Mediterranean hotspot Crazy About You are some of the country’s best eateries, providing a wide range of flavors and cooking styles to suit any palate, as well as the ideal atmosphere for a romantic date.
Tons of job opportunities: While cities across the United States are experiencing an economic resurgence, few areas are enjoying the job growth that’s come to Brickell. Dubbed “Wall Street South” by Forbes, this unique enclave has been a hotbed for job seekers as of late, with a major boom across industries, but particularly for those seeking jobs in finance, a sector which now accounts for 17 percent of employment in the area.
Beautiful homes: While many cities are experiencing housing shortages, there’s no shortage of ultra-luxury Miami condos. In fact, there are countless Brickell condos for sale throughout the neighborhood, offering peerless amenities and spacious homes perfect for the hard-working men and women who call this area home. And fortunately, nearby, Una Residences is offering stunning condos and amenity-packed homes full of design and details. And it’s no wonder the building is such a stunner: OKO Group, the same developer as Missoni Baia which is also in Miami, is responsible for stunning luxury buildings around the world, like the Aman in New York and both the Imperial House and OKO Tower in Moscow.
Great nightlife: If you’re looking for amazing nightlife in Miami, look no further than Brickell. This unique neighborhood is a great spot for singles looking to meet their match, thanks to countless great bars and clubs in the area. Dance the night away at Blume, grab some expertly-prepared cocktails at Blackbird Ordinary, or put on your best outfit and show off with your friends at MO Bar + Lounge at the Mandarin Oriental.
Miami has always been one of the most appealing cities in the United States, and it’s clear that young singles are quickly finding out why. With a hotspot like Brickell in its midst, it’s no wonder Miami is quickly becoming the east coast’s premier city for those looking to work hard, play hard, and find that special someone they always knew was out there waiting for them.
