Where We Build: Wynwood Districts We Serve
Wynwood is Miami’s flagship arts, dining, and creative-office district, built out of a former manufacturing zone. We work across:
- The Wynwood Arts District – the NW 2nd Avenue gallery, retail, and restaurant core, including the Wynwood Walls area;
- The warehouse and adaptive-reuse blocks – converted industrial buildings housing breweries, studios, and creative offices;
- The NW 5th Avenue and Miami Avenue corridors – retail and mixed-use frontage;
- The Wynwood Norte edge – emerging mixed-use development;
- Ground-floor commercial in new mixed-use buildings.

Spotlight: Adaptive Reuse in the Wynwood Arts District
Wynwood turned a district of warehouses and manufacturing buildings into one of the country’s best-known arts, dining, and creative-office neighborhoods. Adaptive reuse is central to how it grew—converting industrial shells into galleries, breweries, restaurants, retail, and creative offices—and it is some of the most demanding work in commercial construction: unforeseen existing conditions, structural and systems upgrades, and change-of-use code compliance.
As part of Miami-Dade County, Wynwood also sits in the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone (HVHZ), the strictest section of the Florida Building Code, so the envelope, glazing, and roofing carry wind-load and missile-impact design with Miami-Dade NOA product approvals. We handle both layers—the reuse complexity and HVHZ compliance—while working on tight, active blocks, so Wynwood projects open on schedule and to code.
