Wynwood Walls

Goldman Properties has been reinventing neighborhoods for 40 years and is a presence in the Wynwood area.

We are going to Wynwood on our bus trip to see the revitalization in progress there. There are over 40 art galleries in the Wynwood Arts District. The new addition is a collection called Wynwood Walls. Goldman Properties has created an area with many decorated wall murals between the Wynwood Kitchen & Bar and Joey's Restaurant on NW 2nd Avenue. Our bus tour will include a tour of the Walls.

One of the elements that makes Wynwood unique are the wall murals all over the area. Some of you may remember an early example on the walls of the building housing the Margulies Collection which bordered I-95.



There are also Art Complexes in Wynwood such as: Artopia, Bakehouse, Inkub8, Mitrani Warehouse, Museo Vault and University of Miami Project Space. There are 6 art studios in the area belonging to A. Dale Nally, Daniela Wicki, Nahila Campos, Sid Hoeltzell and Whale & Star.

We will be stopping also at the prestigious Rubell Family Collection as well as the Wynwood Walls.
