High-rise living in Miami’s Media & Entertainment District
Miami’s Media & Entertainment District, previously known as Omni, is an urban neighborhood made up of high-rise residential towers, and it connects Downtown Miami to the artsy Wynwood district. Here, residents will find the Adrienne Arsht Center for the Performing Arts, the old headquarters of the Miami Herald, the Perez Art Museum, the Philip & Patricia Frost Museum of Science and the City of Miami Cemetery. The latter is the oldest and first cemetery in the city, having opened in 1897.
The area is served by two stations of the Omni Loop branch of the Metromover, a free train system. At Government Center, locals can transfer to the Metrorail, Miami’s heavy rail system with connections to Miami International Airport. Or, they can connect to the Brickell and Inner Metromover loops. So, it’s entirely possible to live and get around in the Media & Entertainment District without a car, and many residents opt to travel by foot, bike, public transit or taxi. Bicycle initiatives have been implemented throughout the city, with bike parking and lanes now commonplace. You can even rent the Citi Bikes in the area.
