The Washington Avenue Business Improvement District (BID) is pleased to announce that 1309 and 1311 Washington Avenue are now fully leased, welcoming Samba. Sun and Pink Café to Miami Beach’s historic commercial corridor.

Wright, Executive Director of the Washington Avenue BID. “We’re excited to welcome Samba. Sun and Pink Café. Their decision to invest here reflects confidence in the Avenue’s future and adds to the momentum we’re working to sustain.”
