"Launched by the team behind the now-shuttered Wynwood Yard, The Doral Yard (8455 NW 53rd Street, Suite 106) has pivoted due to COVID-19 precautions and new regulations into a pedestrian-only activation of Downtown Doral’s Main Street while it prepares The Hub, an indoor space with a full bar and a small food hall set to open later this year. I note the activation includes art installations, additional outdoor covered seating, and socially distanced events — fitness classes by Sweat 440, yoga, live music and cultural events — and that guests can order from several pop-up food outposts via a QR code or The Doral Yard app and have items brought to their table. Eventually the site will become a 20,000-square-foot space divided into three indoor and outdoor zones (The Hub, The Backyard, and a full-service restaurant) when completed in 2021. Currently The Doral Yard is open Sundays to Thursdays from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. and Fridays and Saturdays 11 a.m. to curfew." - Olee Fowler
