Billionaire developer Jorge Perez says Miami’s image as a ‘serious city’ is at risk after Florida Governor Ron DeSantis axed all $32 million in state funding for the arts in a surprise move. “We want to be a serious city, and serious means that we have great education and we have great exposure to culture,” said Perez, whose company has hundreds of luxury condos in development. Miami has been trying to remake its image as a party city into a global center of dining, culture and finance, as it sees an influx of wealthy, connected Northeast transplants. Bloomberg
