The hot topic of the day is the renaming of Brickell Ave to include parts of the avenue north of the River along NE 2nd Ave. Historians disagree with the measure, saying it will contradict the feuds between the Brickells and Julia Tuttle/Henry Flagler. It’s just a name people! Not a History lesson embedded in asphalt! It’s a name that will bring more prestige to the whole area and hopefully more offices and companies to our central business district. The Brickell Avenue name will NOT be diluted, but will further promote the type of growth that this city needs. Our version of 5th Avenue or Michigan Avenue needs to stretch across our city bringing further businesses and prestige to our region…The hot topic of the day is the renaming of Brickell Ave to include parts of the avenue north of the River along NE 2nd Ave. Historians disagree with the measure, saying it will contradict the feuds between the Brickells and Julia Tuttle/Henry Flagler.
