Lincoln Road Shopping District — Attraction in Miami Beach

To begin, 15 years ago when i used to walk the streets of Lincoln road I don’t remember being as urban and filthy as it is now. I have worked on Lincoln road for the past 5 years and man has it gotten bad. In the afternoon, you can literally see the rats running across the street from restaurant to restaurant not to mention since I work here I sometimes get here around 6 AM. The amount of homeless people that have decided to reside throughout all of Lincoln Road is astonishing.

Their financial ability in the short term is questionable based on their strategy and practices. Proceed with caution if considering their properties, and even more so if you are an...

Very few stores there that are worth the visit. A lot of stores are closed down, parking a nightmare. There is always something going on, and many of the garages are closed for event parking only, so parking is a hit and miss. There is no dedicated parking for people who want to support Lincoln Rd businesses, very sad. Many times, I could not park there, I had to leave. The only parking garage that was open charged $40 flat rate for every 5 hours of parking. That's ridiculous when you want to stay just 1-2 hours. Too bad Lincoln Road area is being...
