Sources told the Miami Herald that prospective Lincoln Road tenants include Nike, Abercrombie & Fitch, Topshop and Old Navy.

“It is squarely in the sights of every major, exciting retail operator around the world, and the demand for locations on Lincoln Road has never been higher,” said Stephen Bittel, founder and chairman of Miami Beach-based Terranova Corp, which has bought several Lincoln Road properties in a joint venture with New York-based Acadia Realty Trust.
