About

Extending from the Atlantic Ocean to the east and Biscayne Bay to the west, Lincoln Road serves as Miami Beach’s community epicenter featuring shops, sidewalk cafés, cultural destinations, galleries, restaurants, bars, and much more! A favorite location for locals and visitors from all over the world, Lincoln Road is known for its iconic history, architecture, public art, and cultural attractions.

Lincoln Road is minutes from downtown Miami, Brickell area and Miami International Airport.

History

When famed architect Morris Lapidus was commissioned to redesign Lincoln Rd in the 1960s, his distinguished style positioned the road as one of the most luxurious destinations in the city during that time. Today, Lincoln Road is an iconic pedestrian district that serves as a hub for modern culture seekers, both local and international.

Future

Lincoln Rd will be undertaking a unique transformation that will embrace its rich culture and diversity while infusing a more eclectic, bold, cultural and community-driven focus with the help of James Corner Field Operations, the New York based landscape architecture firm responsible for The High Line in Manhattan. This master plan envisions physical and operational improvements for the pedestrian portion of Lincoln Rd and its adjacent streets including, more public seating, spaces for art installations and a refreshed pavement design that will convert the road into an immersive and multi-faceted destination. Development and art have always gone hand in hand; and this relationship will be clear through the reimagining of Lincoln Rd.

Lincoln Rd is already considered one of the most iconic cultural and commercial pedestrian roads in the US, and was included in the National Register of Historic Places in 2011. The planned transformation of the road will take the convergence of Miami locals and international tourists to a new level through art, design, music, gastronomy, culture and fashion.
