COMING SOON: Restaurants in Wynwood

Wynwood Arts District is going to see a number of restaurants pop up, thanks to the demand of art-goers wanting a place to relax and dine in an area that is dominated by warehouses. The warehouses may be great for holding impressive collections of artworks inside, but it also helps make the area feel dead at night, with lonely street lights casting the windowless concrete exterior in a yellow haze.

But meanwhile, let's just be thankful for two things that makes Wynwood exciting...

1) Art
2) Daylight



Also, thankfully, developer Joey Goldman is going to do something more to help make Wynwood become pedestrian-friendly. After all, it has the aspirations to become Miami's answer to New York's Chelsea - although us Miamenses know that we have a long way to go.

"Joey Goldman said he will open five eateries in the neighborhood within the next 18 months, among them a Vietnaemse restaurant, a noodle shop and a tea house."
But when the restaurants open, you can bet I'll be visiting it more often - especially for some good Vietnamese food!
