Blue Collar, the beloved comfort-food destination in Miami’s MiMo neighborhood, is just about ready to make its big move — and its sleek new look is light years from the original’s simple design. The restaurant, which opened in 2012 at 6730 Biscayne Blvd., has moved into the former space of Balan’s across the street and is on track to open later this month. The original restaurant will close shortly before the new one opens. Read more: https://lnkd.in/ejZSbifW

Florida’s coastal counties spend millions trucking in sand to preserve the eroding beachfront. But what if a cheaper possible solution could be found in the garbage and recycling bins of Miami bars or even in that six-pack of Miller Lite you brought home the other night? Glass is made from sand so what about doing the reverse? Paola Barranco thinks such a new source of soft, precious stuff could be an attractive, environmentally friendly option in a state with a shortage of quality beach sand.

A high-powered investment group with its eye on redeveloping the expansive Miami Marine Stadium property on Virginia Key has been quietly meeting with Miami Mayor Francis Suarez and other city officials to float an unsolicited proposal for a water-oriented sports and amusement park on the site. News of the previously undisclosed proposal has filtered out as the city administration gets set to seek a potential operator later this year for the marine stadium, which has been closed since 1992, amid growing political support for a long-delayed plan for the 1963 historic landmark’s renovation.

One of the serene pleasures of Wendy Gordon’s daily routine was sitting on her Grove Isle balcony and watching the sun rise over Biscayne Bay, framed by Key Biscayne and the downtown skyline. No more. The sun is blotted out by a new 91-foot tall, stadium-like condominium that curves around the north end of the island and shrouds Gordon’s Building 3 in shadow part of the day. Nor can she step foot on her balcony, unless she clutches the railing. The crescent shape of the new condo tower and its jarring proximity, combined with the formerly soothing prevailing breeze, creates a wind tunnel that rakes across the north side of Building 3 and the driveway entrance, knocking down patio furniture, annihilating hairdos and slamming car doors. Gordon’s view, and that of her neighbors, was once unobstructed, but the other day, when she got out of the shower and wandered toward her living room, she realized the construction workers at the new building could see her through her sliding glass doors. “Thank God I was wearing a towel,” she said. “When residents move in over there, they’ll be close enough to see what I’m watching on TV. Or what I’m reading. I’ll be able to see into their bathrooms. “We bought a peaceful island lifestyle. It was heaven. It’s gone.” Read more the full story here: https://lnkd.in/gCAH89Ft
