LAZ Opens Parking Garage & Events Management Operation in Miami

LAZ Parking is proud to announce its partnership agreement to manage related operations for The Wynwood Garage in the Wynwood Arts District of Miami. Developed and owned by Goldman Properties, The Wynwood Garage was designed by world-renowned Faulders Studio as a transformative and functional work of art to keep up with the area’s demand for convenient and reliable parking services.

The Wynwood Garage is the first and only garage in the Wynwood Arts District. The mixed-use, eight-story building has 30,000 square feet of office space, 20,500 square feet of retail space, a 428-space parking facility and world-class tenants that include Punch Bowl Social and WeWork. LAZ began working with Goldman Properties in 2017 to consult and provide its expertise regarding traffic flows, area knowledge, projections and equipment installation.

The garage opened in late November 2018 just before Art Basel, a world-famous, annual contemporary art show held in Miami Beach that has expanded, through Art Week, into the Wynwood area. The LAZ Event Group provided security, crowd control, event ambassadors, ticket takers, hosts and hostesses for some of the 13 art fairs during Art Week.

LAZ worked with Spectrum Miami, Red Dot Miami and Art Wynwood, which are housed in structures erected specifically for Art Week. The LAZ staff provided support to these art fairs to ensure that the thousands of attendees had a safe and enjoyable experience.

“We are thrilled to be adding The Wynwood Garage to our growing management portfolio in Miami,” said Alan Lazowski, Chairman & CEO of LAZ Parking, “and to partner with Goldman Properties, a company that shares our high brand standards and commitment to creating a seamless guest experience for garage patrons.”

The Wynwood area of Miami has become an edgy hot spot in recent years. With its buildings covered in colorful murals and graffiti, walking through the Walls of Wynwood is like being inside a kaleidoscope. The Wynwood Garage, in the heart of the Wynwood Arts District, sits within walking distance of popular restaurants, a collection of high-end stores and art galleries, the Wynwood Building, the Wynwood Walls, the LAB Miami and The Lightbox at the Goldman Warehouse.

“Our partnership with LAZ Parking in The Wynwood Garage venture has far exceeded our expectations,” said Marlo Courtney, Senior Managing Director of Goldman Properties. “They have been very hands on as it relates to operation strategy and have continuously provided excellent service for our Wynwood patrons.”
