Overtown Multifamily Home for Sale

Historic Overtown in Miami, blocks from the Florida coast, is a neighborhood rich in Black heritage and culture. Known as the “Harlem of the South,” Overtown is reclaiming its status as a hub for art, food, and culture despite past challenges from the construction of Interstate 95. The area features low-rise, stucco-sided apartments, condominiums, and some newly constructed single-family homes. Overtown has a mix of greenery with leafy trees and grassy lots, providing a pleasant urban environment. The neighborhood is served by Miami-Dade County Public Schools, with Booker T. Washington High School offering specialized academies. Overtown has seen revitalization efforts through programs like the Southeast Overtown/Park West Community Redevelopment Agency and the Mourning Family Foundation. Local highlights include the Overtown Youth Center, Gibson Park with its athletic facilities, and the Green Haven Project’s community garden. Dining options feature Jackson Soul Food and the Michelin-Guide-recommended Red Rooster. The Historic Lyric Theater and Overtown Performing Arts Center are key cultural venues, while murals like “Ode to Overtown” celebrate the neighborhood’s history. Overtown is well-connected, with Miami’s free trolley service, Metrobus, and Metrorail lines providing access to Downtown Miami, 2 miles southeast, and Miami International Airport, less than 8 miles northwest.
