Wynwood, FL

Wynwood is a Miami neighborhood just north of downtown that grew from a garment and warehouse district into a center for street art and galleries. People come to walk among the murals, visit the Wynwood Walls and spend an evening in the neighborhood’s restaurants and breweries.

Where is Wynwood?

Wynwood sits north of downtown Miami and Overtown, roughly bounded by NW 20th Street to the south, I-195 to the north, I-95 to the west and the Florida East Coast Railway to the east, next to Edgewater and Midtown. Miami International Airport is about 15 minutes away without traffic. See our Miami guide for the rest of the city.

Things to do in Wynwood

The Wynwood Walls, started in 2009 by developer Tony Goldman, is an outdoor exhibition of rotating murals by artists from around the world. Walls throughout the surrounding streets are painted too, so walking the blocks around NW 2nd Avenue is the best way to see them. The neighborhood’s history includes the 1920s garment district and the Puerto Rican community that earned it the nickname Little San Juan. Street parking is limited and paid, with more space in garages, and the area is busiest on weekend evenings and during Art Basel week in December.
