On Aug. 1, the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention issued a travel warning to pregnant women to avoid the Wynwood, Midtown and Edgewater areas in Miami due to the increasing number of people contracting the Zika virus directly from infected mosquitoes within this one-square-mile area.
This recent travel advisory, along with the increased presence of Zika-infected mosquitoes, will impact and possibly interrupt businesses in the affected areas. Goldman Properties, a real estate firm credited with the redevelopment of Wynwood, issued a joint statement with the Wynwood Business Improvement District to announce that “Wynwood’s restaurants, galleries, retailers and art-filled streets remain open for business,” and the Wynwood community “will do whatever is necessary to be vigilant in our prevention and will follow the guidelines outlined by the Florida Department of Health.”
