Shuckers Closing Is Closing For New Luxury Development | Eater Miami

"I've long seen this North Bay Village waterfront restaurant and bar—opened in 1989—as a beloved local mainstay known for its laid-back atmosphere, inexpensive drinks, waterfront views, and casual dining. Its deck collapsed in 2013, injuring dozens, but it reopened a year later with a state-of-the-art steel-reinforced deck and continued to host popular game-day watch parties and low-key waterfront meals. Learning it will close for good at the end of the year after a $75 million sale hit me and many locals hard, prompting widespread disappointment on social media and an online petition to try to save the spot." - Olee Fowler
