Dubbed South Florida's "Financial District" and "Manhattan of the South," Brickell promises a fun and meaningful travel experience for EVERYONE that even your furry companion won't soon forget!
One of the oldest neighborhoods in Miami, the community has the Miami River in its north, Biscayne Bay to its east, the Rickenbacker Causeway to the south, and I-95 to its west.
It lies directly to the south of Downtown Miami's Central Business District, making it one of the largest financial districts in the country, offering numerous banking, investment, and financial institutions.
One can even say Brickell is Miami's ultimate hotspot, with its explosion of newly built condominiums, trendy new bars, restaurants, and endless business opportunities-- the boom showing no signs of stopping.
And the good news is that this neighborhood welcomes visitors of all kinds-- the young, the old, and even the furry-- with its exciting tourist spots, activities, and numerous parks and green spaces running parallel to Biscayne Bay.
So, who says Fido can't have a blast in a bustling urban city?

Aside from being a local hangout, this two-and-a-half acre park is also home to the historic Brickell family mausoleum, dating to 1924!
Although the Brickell family burials have since relocated to other cemeteries in Miami, Brickell Park was listed in the National Register of Historic Places in 1989 and is considered an archaeological site where the sole surviving structure from the famous family that started it all lies!
