Miami’s Upper East Side is one of the fastest growing and most sought after neighborhoods in Miami. Located along Biscayne Bay between Downtown Miami and Little Haiti, the area is not only surrounded by culture, but also has the added bonus of being one of the closest neighborhoods to the water and the city center outside of South Beach.
Known to many as the MiMo district (Miami Modern), the Biscayne corridor of Miami’s Upper East Side is rich with architecture, history and art, ranging from the 1950s to the present. Belle Meade, Bay Point and Morningside are three distinct residential neighborhoods on Miami’s Upper East Side. The area features palm tree-lined boulevards and sweeping Atlantic Sea views. The northern border is marked by Little River, which flows through northern Miami from Biscayne Bay.
Belle Meade and the gated community of Belle Meade Island is a charming community featuring both older cottage style houses intermingled with newer grand single family homes. The neighborhood also features spacious condos with landscaped gardens and balconies, making it ideal for residents who want a peaceful place to call home away from some of the busier areas of central Miami. The area is adjacent to the MiMo District, famous for its many historic hotels, galleries, stores, and restaurants.
To the south, Morningside is a family friendly community developed primarily between 1922 and 1941. The area features a wealth of Mediterranean, Art Deco, and vernacular style houses that reflect the diversity and direction of architectural design during the 1920s and 1930s. The Morningside Historic District stands today as one of MiamI's most intact historic neighborhoods. Despite the number of post-1941 buildings in the area, Morningside retains a high degree of historic and architectural integrity. This is due, in part, to the fact that most later buildings are not intrusive, but respect the earlier structures in scale, setback, materials, and workmanship.
With multiple parks, water access, shopping, dining, culture, some great private schools such as The Cushman School and Miami Country Day, plus a fantastic central location just outside of Miami's urban center, the Upper East Side is an ideal neighborhood to reside in.
