In this episode, we sit down with Moishe Mana, one of the most unconventional and visionary developers shaping Miami today.
Moishe’s story is as wild as it gets. He arrived in New York with nothing, slept on park benches, started a moving company with a single van, and built it into the largest operation in the tri-state area. That hustle became the foundation for a sprawling business empire spanning logistics, media, art, and real estate.
We get into his early days in New York, identifying opportunity in overlooked neighborhoods like the Meatpacking District, and how that same instinct led him to Wynwood long before it became what it is today. Moishe shares what it actually takes to bet on a neighborhood, assemble land at scale, and create a cultural movement, not just a real estate project.
The conversation then shifts to Miami: Wynwood, Downtown, and beyond, where Moishe lays out his vision for the city as a global hub connecting the Americas, art, fashion, and technology.
This one is about grit, conviction, and seeing what others don’t, and having the courage to go all in on it.
