Brickell. Financial services relocation (Citadel, hedge funds, family offices) has built a corporate rental base that supports the highest luxury rent PSF in South Florida.

Downtown Miami. Rental demand is improving with the Waldorf Astoria pipeline but has not yet reached corporate-quality tenant depth. For rental yield today, Brickell is the more reliable underwrite.
