Miami and Miami Beach by now should be far past the "please love me" phase of major cities that would justify this kind of thing.
Neither NYC nor LA did marketing campaigns for GTA when III, VI and V came out. I recognize the last game came out in '13, but still.

Still no transit for the Edgewater neighborhood.
Three towers are rising across the street from one another: Edge House, Biacayne 18, and 1775 Biscayne Blvd.
Together, they are expected to bring 2,330 units. floridiandevelopment.com/edg…
