In July 2014, Miami-Dade County commissioners unanimously approved funding nearly half of a $13 million improvement plan for Flagler Street. At the time, the plan called for expanding and straightening sidewalks, along with adding trees, benches and bicycle racks. The sidewalks will also be designed to resemble railroad tracks, a reference to Henry Flagler. It will break ground this month, Mattingly said.
The sale brings Mana’s total to 31 properties and 780, 000 square feet in downtown Miami. “Mana intends to infuse Miami’s urban core with arts, culture, and an elegance unknown since the ’20s real estate boom, ” she said.
