As far as comeback stories there are few neighborhoods, which can boast "rags to riches" turn-around such as Miami Upper East Side. This eclectic area includes such historic neighborhoods as Bay Point, Morningside, Belle Meade, and Bayside. These are quiet neighborhoods, which have more character then almost any other neighborhood in Miami. These areas do not allow drive through traffic, which cuts down on the noise dramatically and exclusive Bay Point has a guard station, which is paid by the homeowner's association. Also, Bay Point is one of the few neighborhoods in Miami where the homeowners actually own the streets, not the city.
As for Morningside and Belle Meade, both neighborhoods have gates but allow public access and guards just write down guests' license plates as they drive through. Tucked away between 69th St and 72nd St is Bayside neighborhood, there is no gate just one entry thru 69th St. The advantage here is Starbuck's, Uva 69, Balan's, Dogma, Karma Car Wash and Metro Organic Bistro (just to name a few) are only a-walk-a-way. The home values in this area did take a hit, like most of Miami, but prices are on the rise again. The unpretentious atmosphere and good value, mixed with easy access to Design District, South Beach, 55th Station and Brickell make it very attractive for buyers. This neighborhood's home values will only go up as more people discover the hidden treasure of Miami's Upper East Side.
