— NEIGHBORHOOD —

Olive features newly constructed, beautifully designed apartments in the heart of Riverside (AKA East Little Havana). The apartment building was completed in November 2023. It’s a well-lit controlled-access building within a multicultural, inner-city neighborhood. Neighbors can be noisy at night and you’ll likely hear rooster sounds (yes, the Little Havana mascot is a real thing throughout the area). If you are unfamiliar with the typical sights and sounds of urban city life, we encourage taking a taxi or Uber after dusk.

Like many urban areas undergoing regeneration, Little Havana can be a little scruffy around the edges, but more than makes up for this through great ethnic shops and restaurants, lovely open spaces near the Miami River, fantastic local transport and easy access to Downtown Miami and Brickell, vibrant music and food scene and a warm, friendly community.

Little Havana is the colorful center of Hispanic culture in Miami. The area’s riddled with Latin-inspired cafes, restaurants, venues and markets that give space and a voice to all the different backgrounds that have taken root in the neighborhood.

Here you’ll find locals grabbing an afternoon cortado or a fresh fruit batido, talking politics over a game of dominoes, or eating solid authentic dishes from all over Latin America to a backdrop of ever-present Cuban beats.

– History of the Neighborhood –
Riverside was Miami's first subdivision west of the Miami River. The area came to be called “Riverside” for its location next to the Miami River. Mary Brickell (a member of one of Miami’s prominent pioneer families) platted the Riverside subdivision. By the early 20th century a significant number of Cubans already resided in the Riverside area. Riverside’s population mix has undergone many changes in recent decades as a huge number of Cubans, Nicaraguans, and other Caribbean and Latin American refugees poured into the area. Because of its large Cuban population, the area began to be called Little Havana or East Little Havana.

East Little Havana is rich with Cuban culture, including traditional restaurants and bakeries, galleries, and venues like the Cubaocho Museum & Performing Arts Center, a hub of live music and Cuban art. Along the main strip of Calle Ocho, the Walk of Fame sidewalk pays tribute to Cuban and Latin American celebrities. The area also contains LoanDepot Park, home to the Miami Marlins Major League Baseball team.
