Stretching north from downtown Miami along Biscayne Bay, the beautiful and historic communities of the "Upper Eastside" are a case study in the restorative powers of gentrification. Fabled Biscayne Boulevard is the main thoroughfare for this area, and is undergoing a renaissance as upscale shops, restaurants, galleries and clubs open where low rent motels once proliferated.
Located to the west of Edgewater, just north of I-195, the thriving Design District features an array of designer furniture showrooms, antique shops, art galleries and photography studios. Hip restaurants and bars make this neighborhood one of Miami's hottest destinations. Between N. Miami Avenue and NE 2nd Avenue, the residential Buena Vista neighborhood is a showcase of old Miami architecture.
The historic residential neighborhoods of Morningside, Belle Meade, Shorecrest, and Davis Harbour stretch north between Biscayne Boulevard and the Bay. Morningside features a stunning collection of historic art deco and Mediterranean revival homes on wide avenues leading to the bay. Belle Meade is a gated residential community including Belle Meade Island off of 76th Street. Belle Meade is renowned for its beautiful homes and community spirit, and hosts an annual Halloween party that is a fixture on the calendars of many Miami residents. Shorecrest and Davis Harbour are beautiful bayfront residential neighborhoods.
Crowning the Upper Eastside is the Village of Miami Shores, a charming community of approximately 10,000 residents. Like its neighbors to the south, Miami Shores boasts beautifully maintained and historic homes. A charming main street, proactive municipal services, and design features such as rear alleys and sidewalks provide a quality of life that leads many to liken the community to Coral Gables at a smaller scale. Miami Shores Country Club offers golf, tennis and a new water park. The community is also notable as the home to Barry University and the Archdiocese of Miami.
