Art Plaza Site
The first crane has been installed at the Art Plaza site in the Arts & Entertainment district with the second crane about to be installed shortly after.
The buildings on the site were demolished in October 2017 and foundation work started in January of this year.

Powerboat racing will make its return to the long shuddered Miami Marine Stadium April 21/22 and for the first time since 1992.
The Virginia Key Advisory Board voted in favor of the Miami P1 Grand Prix of the Sea that will take place in the basin in front of the Stadium.
Public Parking will be available in the lot West of the Stadium while spectator and vendor tents will be located on the East of the Stadium.
The Miami Marine Stadium has been abandoned since 1992 since Hurricane Andrew when the City of Miami deemed it unsafe. A construction report has started last year by R.J. Heisenbottle Architects with a probable construction cost of $40,323,361 to restore the stadium.
The basin and land outside the stadium have been used in recents years for triathlon events and the Miami International Boat Show.
Panorama Tower
The 868 foot Panorama Tower, the tallest building in Miami and tallest building South of New York City is getting closer to completion since we last looked at the beginning of the year.
The lighting on the exterior of Panorama Tower illuminates the tower at night while it looms large over the other buildings in the vicinity.
With incredible views from the very top of the building, Panorama Tower is expected to be completed in March.

Brickell Flatiron
Brickell Flatiron continues to rise quickly since we last looked at the beginning of January. The 64 story is now on the 28th floor and about to begin work on the 29th floor.

Harlem Square Site in Overtown
Coming soon to the Overtown district of Miami is Harlem Square, which will be a Supper Club/Lounge. The site used to be the home of legendary promoter Clyde Killen that was built in 1925 and also used as a liquor store.
Harlem Square will be a rebirth of the old Harlem Square Club that used to be in Overtown and where what is considered one of the best live albums, "Live, At The Harlem Square Club, 1963" was recorded. $1.2 million of CRA funds will be allocated for the project.
Located next to Harlem Square is the Streamline Moderne X-Ray Clinic of Dr. Samuel H. Johnson that was built in 1939. The X-Ray clinic was used by blacks in the area because of segregation and was used until 1972. The building was donated to the Black Archives History in 1981.
With Harlem Square and the addition of a new Marcus Samuelsson restaurant, Overtown is poised for growth in the area.
