Neighborhood Description Once a barren stretch of land, full of graffiti and panhandlers, SoFi has blossomed into Miami's most expensive and high brow area, bustling with luxury condos, a major restaurant scene, swanky clubs and lounges, fabulous hotels that are slightly more intimate than the SoBe megahotels, and - the icing on the cake - more parking spots! A decade in the making, SoFi is the vision of developer extraordinaire Jorge Perez of The Related Group of Florida, who started the boom when he opened Portofino Tower in the mid 90s. Next came Yacht Club, Murano at Portofino where La Piaggia, a private beach club provides stylish meals and chic beach life ("Just pull up on the yacht, darling!"), Murano Grande, ICON, a fantastic blend of beach/chic designed by Philippe Starck. And speaking of beach moments, we have to mention Nikki beach, a champagne-at-noon, Euro kind of scene with a sexy lounge vibe after dark. ICON, a Philippe Starck-designed condominium gives a run at the Delano . Apogee, a 67-unit building where homes range from $3.75 million to $17 million is the areas latest. The Continuum II, the brainchild of New York developer Ian Bruch Eichner, is further upping the SoFi real estate market. Today's SoFi is nonstop action. In addition to the legendary Miami staple restaurant, Joe's Stone Crab, other haute spots include four places owned by the self-proclaimed mayor of food, restaurateur Myles Chefetz: Prime 112, Miami's more elegant answer to Peter Luger's; Nemo, the always-packed hangout with outdoor cafe tables; Shoji Sushi, a Zen-like place known for its Spanish blue fin tuna, and Big Pink, a comfort-food palace that serves up large plates of spinach dip and hulking burgers in a retro pink and silver diner space (look out for the pink VW bug delivery service). Danny DeVitto recently opened his namesake Italian restaurant, DeVitto South Beach. All very South Beach, but with a more grown up (and expensive) feel. And all just south of the border.
