There’s always improvements being made in Aventura. As you drive through Aventura on the short stretch of Biscayne Blvd. you should start to notice the light posts are changing. Specifically, by the Aventura Mall area there have been several new light posts installed. These posts are a lot nicer than the typical posts, these have a second lower lantern for a more luxurious look.
