Conway recently sold the neighboring Ebb & Flow retail strip center comprised of two buildings on two lots for $18.15 million in July 2022. Riascos represented Conway in the Ebb & Flow transaction as well. The all-cash deal marked one of the largest single transactions in Little River for value-add creative retail.
“In recent months, the Northeast Second Avenue corridor of Little River has received remarkable attention from investors and developers seeking to capitalize on the emerging retail and development taking place between 79th and 84th Street,” said Riascos. “This property may be one of the last remaining sites that offers institutional size and scale for future development along NE 2nd avenue. We are excited to be part of the tremendous growth and continued success of Little River.”
A hub for re-adapted industrial buildings, Little River has attracted an array of creative and design-oriented businesses that have identified the surrounding neighborhood as one of Miami’s most up-and-coming districts. It is home to a wide variety of businesses, tenants, and owners that have transformed one of Miami’s oldest industrial areas into a neighborhood that promotes creativity, design, and innovation.
