Downtown Miami, Central business district and neighborhood in Miami, United States
Downtown Miami is a central business district and neighborhood featuring modern glass towers that line Biscayne Bay. The area combines financial institutions, entertainment venues, museums, and waterfront parks into an urban core.
The district took shape in the 1890s when Henry Flagler extended the Florida East Coast Railway into the area. This rail connection transformed swampland into a growing commercial center.
The neighborhood reflects Miami's multicultural identity, with Spanish signage and businesses showing the heritage of Latin American communities. You can feel this cultural blend woven into daily life as you walk through the district.
The free Metromover with 22 stations connects different parts of the district. This system makes it easy to move around on foot without needing a car.
The district undergoes a dramatic daily transformation: while about 66,000 people live here in the evening, over 250,000 work in this financial center during business hours. This constant shift shapes how the neighborhood feels from hour to hour.
