The world's economic rules are changing. What's at stake for Miami? | Opinion
At a moment of significant geopolitical and economic realignment, the question facing investors, business leaders and policymakers is no longer simply where capital will flow, but what conditions will allow it to succeed.

Go inside a Miami mall that was once a haven for wealthy shoppers
When the Omni International Mall opened in 1977, it changed the way we lived. On breaks, downtown workers dashed in to make a quick purchase or have lunch at one of the restaurants or the food court. Teenagers from Little Havana, Overtown and Miami Beach descended on the mall after school and on weekends to see the latest movie at the multiplex, hang out in the record store or take a spin on the carousel. People who lived in Mid-Beach and South Beach now had a relatively close place to shop and eat with just a quick ride over one of the causeways.

Customers headed to the bakery to buy some cinnamon bread, browse through the bookstore, search for the latest sales. The Omni, lording over Biscayne Boulevard between 14th and 15th streets, was modern, weather-proof, convenient and fun. It was anchored on one side by J.C. Penney and the other by Jordan Marsh, which became Burdines in the mall’s later years. The mall opened in 1977 along with a hotel, also called the Omni International. Before the mall and hotel were built, the free-standing
