Alex Samoylovich, co-founder of CEDARst Companies, will participate in Bisnow’s South Florida forum, The Future of Little River & Little Haiti, on Thursday, April 23, 2026, at 8:00 a.m. EDT in Miami. According to Bisnow, the event will bring together public-sector, community, legal, investment, and development voices to examine how Little River and Little Haiti are evolving as Miami’s next major urban growth corridor.
Bisnow’s agenda frames the conference around two core discussions: the cultural and economic momentum shaping the area, and the development, capital, and policy forces behind what the organizer describes as a billion-dollar transformation underway. The program highlights the intersection of neighborhood identity, housing delivery, mixed-use growth, transit-oriented development, public-private coordination, and long-horizon reinvestment.
Samoylovich is listed among featured speakers participating in the event’s development-focused programming, alongside leaders from Swerdlow Group, GAIA Real Estate, Moderno Development, Plaza Equity Partners, Day Pitney, Gridline Properties, the City of Miami, and the Little Haiti Revitalization Trust.
“South Florida remains one of the most consequential urban growth markets in the country because it is not only attracting capital, but forcing a deeper conversation about what durable development should look like,” said Alex Samoylovich. “In neighborhoods like Little River and Little Haiti, the real question is not whether growth is coming. The question is whether capital, design, operations, and civic alignment can work together in a way that expands housing, respects neighborhood identity, and creates long-term value that is economically sound and socially credible.”
Bisnow notes that attendees will examine why developers and investors are concentrating on the corridor, including zoning flexibility, land availability, transit access, and the scale of projects now in motion. The event description also makes clear that community concerns remain central to the conversation, including affordability, displacement, infrastructure, and cultural continuity.
For Samoylovich, the discussion is closely aligned with a broader real estate approach centered on integrated execution, operational discipline, and neighborhood-sensitive growth. CEDARst’s current company description emphasizes transit-oriented design, operational efficiency, neighborhood integration, and durable placemaking, while describing the firm as a national multifamily developer and operator active in South Florida and other major U.S. markets.
CEDARst has stated that it has developed and acquired more than 10,000 residential units with total asset value exceeding $4 billion. The company’s published positioning emphasizes integrated development and operating capabilities across acquisition, construction, finance, management, and marketing.
Bisnow lists the event venue as Hagerty Garage, 355 NE 71 St, Miami, FL 33138, with programming beginning at 8:00 a.m. EDT. The agenda describes a morning built around market context, development strategy, and practical entry considerations for participants evaluating the submarket.
