Wynwood Walls Creator, Developer Partner on Hotel, Condo Building

Day Pitney Real Estate Partner Steven J. Wernick was featured in South Florida Business Journal article, "Wynwood Walls Creator, Developer Partner on Hotel, Condo Building."

The article discusses the anticipated mixed-use project by Whale & Star Wynwood LLC in Miami's Wynwood Arts District, including 214-unit hotel, 87-unit condominium, and 11,000+ square feet of retail/restaurant space.

Wernick, who represents the developer in the application, said the hotel component would be branded and operated by Cloud One Hotels.
