Both more expensive condominiums on the bay and more affordable rental apartments west of the bay are being built. We are the ones with money and with roots here. This growth has moved in a rapid, well-planned way into Wynwood and the Design District. Leave a Reply Cancel reply. And no one, except maybe the casino owners and a few local gamblers, is happy. Why would anybody be so bold as to try to sneak one in? A neighborhood with a casino is not a neighborhood to raise a family in, in my opinion. If this comes to fruition, the family neighborhood could be run over with gambling. The idea is to resurrect jai-alai, a sport that used to be very popular in South Florida but in the last few decades has been almost forgotten.

The facility is also expected to include a restaurant and hire to people. A casino is the wrong choice. The permit technically only allows jai-alai in the summer, from May to November, says the Miami Herald, but for some reason allows poker as well. They really need to put a stop to this.

Shops and restaurants along Biscayne Boulevard from Downtown to 36th Street are opening daily. They have expressed fear that this could be just the beginning, and lead to other forms of gambling. Local developers and landowners have come out against the plan, including Craig Robins, Norman Braman, and even Jorge Perez, who wrote an op-ed opposing the plan in the Herald. If the casino goes up, there will be more traffic, possibly more crime, and it will take away from the low key neighborhood feel Edgewater has today. {PARAGRAPH}{INSERTKEYS}This post first appeared on Miami Condo Black Book.
