It is north of Edgewater, east of Little Haiti, south of the village of Miami Shores, and sits on Biscayne Bay.

In geographical order from south to north and east to west, it contains the subdivisions of Magnolia Park, Bay Point, Morningside, Bayside, Belle Meade, Shorecrest, and Palm Grove.

Shorecrest contains many historic single-family homes dating to the 1930s and 1940s, as well as some multi-family apartments and condominiums along its southern and western boundaries.

The sub-neighborhood of Daivs Harbor, located east of NE 10th Avenue contains various waterfront homes with access to Biscayne Bay.

Ironside is an urban art and design district located in Miami's Upper Eastside, off of the MiMo Historic Biscayne Boulevard and along the northwest boundary of Palm Grove.

The stretch of industrial warehouses was acquired in 2003 by local developer Ofer Mizrahi, and envisioned as an interconnected network of mixed-purpose architectural complexes.

It is home to over 65 designer showrooms, art galleries, architecture firms, creative services, eateries, residences, multi-purpose spaces, and a public piazza with permanent Berlin Wall sculptures painted by street artist Thierry Noir.

[2] As of 2000, the racial makeup of Belle Meade (including the Bayside Historic District) was 42.68% Hispanic or Latino of any race, 1.60% Black or African American, and 52.66% White (non-Hispanic).

Morningside is a residential historic sub-neighborhood within the Upper Eastside in an older part of the City of Miami, Florida, United States.

[3] Morningside is just north of and adjacent to Bay Point Estates, another more affluent but less historic residential enclave in urban Miami.

When Pope John Paul II visited the United States, he stayed at what was then the home of Archbishop Edward McCarthy on NE 53rd Street.

Started in the 1920s as "Bay Shore," it prospered in the mid-20th century and fell on hard times along with most of Miami's other inner city neighborhoods in the 60's and 70's.

More recently Morningside was the first historic area in central Miami to experience gentrification with an influx of more-affluent residents.

Developed primarily between 1922 and 1941, Morningside contains a wealth of Mediterranean, Art Deco, and vernacular style houses that reflect the diversity and direction of architectural design during the 1920s and 1930s.

Morningside is one of Miami's best planned subdivisions, featuring wide, tree-lined boulevards that contribute to the character of the area.

This neighborhood was envisioned as an exclusive, residential community, and its amenities and location on Biscayne Bay attracted many influential and prominent local residents.

This is due, in part, to the fact that most later buildings are not intrusive, but respect the earlier structures in scale, setback, materials, and workmanship.

[5] Houses constructed in the Morningside Historic District reflect the eclecticism popular in the early twentieth century.

The earlier buildings in the district are predominantly Mediterranean Revival in style, while structures built in the 1930s and early 1940s are frequently Art Deco.

Morningside also features a large number of masonry vernacular buildings that frequently utilize elements of several styles.

The neighborhood streets are privately owned by the households and access to the roads and waterways are restricted to the residents (and their guests), of which there are approximately 250.

Once a part of the pioneer settlement of Lemon City, Bayside contains the oldest intact community in Northeast Miami, as well as one of this area's last remaining bayfront estates.

Elmira is characterized by its excellent collection of Frame Vernacular buildings, many of which were inspired by Northern architectural styles.

Although the subdivision evokes the memory of Longfellow with such names as Acadian Way, Evangeline Circle, Tropical Trail, and Druid Walk, the houses developed here are distinctly Mediterranean Revival in influence.

Development took off during the Boom years of the mid-1920s, however, when Wykoff and Estes Builders constructed an outstanding cluster of large, two-story Mediterranean Revival style houses near the eastern end of NE 70th Street.

[6] The Upper East Side has a population of 15,056 of different ethnicities and races that includes high, middle and low income residents.

Biscayne Boulevard throughout the Upper East Side fell to urban decay after the 1980s, and experienced increased crime, prostitution and drug dealings.

With many homes built in the late 1920s, the Upper Eastside encompasses some of Miami's oldest neighborhoods and residents desire to keep it that way.
