Real estate attorney plans Wynwood North affordable housing project under Miami 21 zoning

Residents of Wynwood North can look forward to innovative housing solutions as a local real estate attorney shared plans for a new development during the City of Miami's Housing and Commercial Loan Committee meeting on June 25, 2025. The attorney, who has over 35 years of experience in real estate, emphasized a commitment to preserving existing housing while introducing new units.

The proposed project aims to adhere to the Miami 21 zoning code, which encourages developers to maintain the front unit of properties to avoid displacing current residents. This approach reflects a growing trend in the area, where developers are increasingly focused on creating affordable housing options without compromising the community's integrity.

The attorney's background includes navigating the challenges of the 2008 financial crisis, during which he shifted his focus to affordable housing initiatives. His experience with organizations like Volunteers of America highlights a dedication to community service and support for vulnerable populations.

In addition to this significant development, the meeting also touched on other housing initiatives and zoning discussions, indicating a broader commitment by the City of Miami to address housing needs and promote sustainable growth. As Wynwood continues to evolve, the community can anticipate more projects that prioritize both development and the well-being of its residents.
