Miami Today Profile Carlos Fausto Miranda

Carlos Fausto Miranda does not distinguish between his commercial real estate

brokerage and investment group and civic involvement. He considers his business

a platform for social change.

Mr. Miranda is on a quest to build for Miami what he describes as an interesting

patchwork of socially and culturally vibrant, sustainable, unique signature

neighborhoods that can assert international recognition.

In that pursuit, he has organized grass root efforts to support amending the city

parking requirement for small new buildings within walking distance of corridors

like Calle Ocho that are near public transit, push for the upzoning of east Little

Havana along with a designation of historical preservation, launch a Little

Havana Business Improvement District and a number of initiatives to bring

attention and pride to the neighborhood’s architectural charms.

Real estate affects every aspect of our lives, Mr. Miranda firmly believes. He has

studied, and visited, a number of magnificent cities around the world and says

Miami is one of them. It’s destined to be the next global metropolis, Mr. Miranda

said, but it is up to us to guide it in the right direction.

Miami Today reporter Susan Danseyar interviewed Mr. Miranda in the garden of

a Little Havana pub.
