In South Beach, an Historic Home is Being Adapted to Retail With a New ‘Vitrine’ Facade
A small single-family home at 909 Collins Avenue, right in the thick of South Beach, is being adaptively reused as a retail space with the addition of a glassy, vitrine-like space in the house’s front yard — literally encasing the old facade in glass almost like an historic reliquary and creating a vaulted front space — and a two story retail addition in the back yard.

Gridics is all about exploring, examining, and analyzing the urban environment, and that includes extraordinary photography of our home city, Miami.

Gridics Wants Writers, Photographers, and Interns Who Love Real Estate, Architecture & Miami
Now that we’ve launched, Gridics is growing and looking for a few good people to write, photograph, and intern for us. Writers and photographers should love local real estate, architecture, neighborhoods, and everything that makes Miami great, and should know a thing or two about what they’re writing or how they’re photographing. Both will work on a freelance basis with competitive compensation. Interns should be eager, ambitious, willing to learn, and to do all the odd, and sometimes boring things required at a young company. Internships are paid.
If interested please submit a little bit about yourself, your resume, writing or photography samples for writers or photographers, and whatever else you like, to news@gridics.com. We’ll get back to you as soon as we can.
