Amazon announced that it will be setting up a big presence in Wynwood, Miami, by leasing office space in the vibrant neighborhood. This seals the growing reputation of Wynwood as a place for innovation and technology, as it is more popularly known as the “Silicon Valley of the South.” The move underlines how Amazon is changing the face of the neighborhood into one of the prime addresses for global companies, startups, and creative communities.

 

A Landmark Move: Amazon’s New Office in Wynwood Plaza

 

Amazon leased 50,300 square feet of office space in Wynwood Plaza, a state-of-the-art mixed-use development developed by Oak Row Equities, L&L Holding, Shorenstein, and Claure Group. The Wynwood Plaza, located at 95 Northwest 29th Street, is scheduled to open its doors this year. This lease represents the largest office deal ever signed in Wynwood and is one of the most significant milestones for growth in the neighborhood.

 

The impressive Wynwood Plaza spans one million square feet and features a twelve-story Class A office building offering two hundred sixty-six thousand square feet of workspace. Additionally, it includes a luxury residential tower with five hundred nine units, forty-five thousand square feet dedicated to amenities, twenty-five thousand square feet of retail space, and a public plaza covering twenty-six thousand square feet. Workspaces, residences, and community areas come together in one single space where innovation and lifestyle will meet.

Why Amazon would Love Wynwood and Miami

 

Amazon did not move into Wynwood by accident but as a well-thought-out decision, considering the strategic clout that Miami has. No state income tax, a doorway to Latin America, and a pool of skilled professionals are just some of the factors that make Miami a magnet for international companies. If taken individually, Wynwood adds value with its vibrant and lifestyle orientation, offering appeal for younger, dynamic professionals.

 

It is a perfect blend of modern infrastructure with cultural authenticity and hence stands just appropriate for the race of companies between innovation versus quality of life.
