Bayside Marketplace is a two-story open air shopping center located in the downtown Miami, Florida. The banks of Biscayne Bay wrap around the property with the City of Miami marina at its side. It is recognized by the Greater Miami Convention & Visitor's Bureau as the number one most visited attraction in Miami. Different from typical shopping malls, Bayside offers an entertainment experience with live music daily, restaurants, bars, open-container policy, family events, and the picturesque settings that come with a waterfront property. The shopping center was frequently featured on the crime drama TV series, Miami Vice. The center attracts many tourists all year long.

Bayfront Park is a 32-acre public, urban park in Downtown Miami, Florida on Biscayne Bay. Located in the park is a bronze statue of Christopher Columbus sculpted by Count Vittorio di Colbertaldo of Verona, one of Benito Mussolini's hand picked ceremonial bodyguards known as the “Black Musketeers.” Bayfront Park is bordered on the north by Bayside Marketplace and the American Airlines Arena. Bayfront Park is host to many large events such as the New Year's ball drop, Christmas celebrations, concerts, the Bayfront Park Amphitheater, the Tina Hills Pavilion, as well as boat tours around Biscayne Bay. Seven blocks north is Bayfront Park's partner park, the 30-acre Bicentennial Park. This park's name has been changed to Museum Park and it is home to The Perez Art Museum and the Frost Science Museum.

A bronze statue of Christopher Columbus was placed in the park in 1952, donated by the city's Italian-American community. The statue itself was sculpted by Count Vittorio di Colbertaldo of Verona, one of Benito Mussolini's hand picked ceremonial bodyguards known as the “Black Musketeers.” Colbertaldo doubled as the Musketeers's sculptor, producing statutes which commemorated the organization.
