Wynwood represents the largest concentration of street art in the United States.
A neighborhood abandoned by the government undergoes a huge cultural change and becomes an international art reference, attracting numerous tourists to the city. This is what happened to Wynwood, in Miami.
This transformation was only possible, largely, on behalf of the Wynwood IDB (Wynwood Business Improvement District), an autonomous government entity that led the revival of the Wynwood Arts District in Miami, Florida. The association represents more than 400 commercial properties and business owners that spread across the 50 city blocks.
in the last decade, Wynwood BID has turned a seedy industrial neighborhood into a world-renowned art destination, in addition to boosting culture, technology, local businesses and residences. Wynwood now has one of the largest collections of street art in the United States and attracts over 4 1,000,000 visitors per year. So much engagement has led TripAdvisor to name Wynwood a “Top Hipster Destination” and in 2021 the neighborhood won the Traveler's Choice.

It is worth noting that the district has breweries, artisan bakeries, bars, cafeterias, restaurants and concert halls that move the region day and night.
According to Daniel Ickowicz, Sales Director at Elite International Realty, real estate consultancy that operates in Florida for almost 30 years, the development of the neighborhood allowed the local economy to take a new turn. “The last few years have been a lot of work., but also of much return to Wynwood. The neighborhood has reconnected with its residents and won over tourists on a global scale.. Traders are more confident. In addition to becoming an international art destination, Wynwood has captivated more and more people inside and outside the US, which has reflected on the economy and real estate sector of the neighborhood and of Miami, In general", evaluates Ickowicz. The expectation is that the Wynwood BID will close a new deal and that the Miami neighborhood will continue to win over the arts audience..
