Lincoln Road Phase II at Drexel Avenue
Project Overview:
Lincoln Road at Drexel Avenue Redevelopment Improvements began in July 2025.
The City of Miami Beach is transforming Drexel Avenue between 16 Street and Lincoln Lane North.
As part of the Lincoln Road Phase II District Improvements, this project will transform a portion of Drexel Avenue from Lincoln Lane South to Lincoln Lane North into a pedestrian-only corridor supporting a safer, more walkable environment for residents, businesses and visitors. Drexel AvenueÂ
between 16 Street and Lincoln Lane South is being improved but will remain open to traffic. The project is delivering key upgrades to paving, lighting,
landscaping, and pedestrian access with a new outdoor performance space at Lincoln Road.
This work supports the City’s long-term vision to enhance walkability, cultural programming, and public spaces in the Lincoln Road District.Â
While construction is underway, restaurants and retail on Lincoln Road remain open for business to all locals and visitors! Please pardon our dust and adhere to posted pedestrian paths around the work zones. The surface parking lot between Meridian and Jefferson Avenues is also available for use; please access this lot from 17 Street via Jefferson Avenue.
