Bank flagged a $3.30 transaction and immediately texted me asking if it was fraud. They knew I’ve never spent three dollars in my life

something political to my fellow miami residents: Two years ago, the City of Miami removed historic protection from PART of the First Presbyterian Church site at 609 Brickell to clear the way for a 75-story tower that the church wants to profit off of. This is a SHADY church right in the middle of Brickel, they: - used their land to lease it to FOR PROFIT businesses - didn’t pay taxes - encountered a big tax bill when the city found out Their solution? - enter into a deal with a real estate developer to make an estimated 240++ million on a tower to be built in what is currently their parking lot and green space - remove over FIFTY historic trees in a neighboring park to make way for the building - after the sale they will remain a religious tax exempt entity and enter into a revenue share with Nobu I’m usually not a NIMBY but this egregious. This a corrupt church. The City’s Historic and Environmental Preservation Board will now hear the matter again. The hearing is Tuesday, November 3 at 3 p.m. at Miami City Hall. It falls on Election Day, so attendance will be thin unless we make a point of being there. Save the trees and park
