Pinewood Real Estate

Located in the north central corner of Miami-Dade county Pinewood is a smaller neighborhood in next to Little Haiti. The community of Pinewood bustles with ethnically diverse owned and operated business, where the aroma of island cooking, multi-hued artwork and the rhythm of Caribbean music greet residents and visitors alike.

In the early 1900's the area was a small farming community called Lemon City, but it was a city only in name. The area had many lemon groves from where the town took its name. The town even had its own railway depot on the Florida East Coast Rail Road. But to the south, the growing city of Miami was looking for more property to add to their town. In 1925, the area was annexed by Miami. Through the years, the community has changed from agricultural to residential, from middle class to lower class and middle class again. Part of this change was driven by immigrants from Haiti, and soon the area was called "Little Haiti, (La Petite Haiti)." Attempts are underway to make Little Haiti into an ethnic enclave and a Caribbean market place has been set up.

The area is currently experiencing a renaissance and a boom, due to the close proximity of the Design District. The development of the new nearby Edgewater community, where construction of multimillion-dollar high rises, night clubs, entertainment, and cultural centers are also well under way, effecting increases in property value. The Miami Design District runs through Pinewood, it includes an 18 block section of art galleries, showrooms and restaurants located between NE 41st Street and NE 36th Street, Miami Avenue and Biscayne Boulevard.

Pinewood is a solid, working class community of unique diversity. The village boasts many Caribbean residents. The median household income is $24,949 and the population is 16,523.
