Description
The historic Playboy Theatre features 25,860 square feet of high-volume interior space across a triple-level layout. The existing structure boasts soaring ceilings and massive, open floor plates, architectural assets nearly impossible to replicate under current Miami Beach building codes. The "bones" of the venue, including the original grand stage and structural volumes, provide a robust foundation that significantly reduces the complexity of a ground-up build. A key operational advantage is the expansive kitchen area located parallel to the main theatre volume, which provides the necessary footprint for high-volume back-of-house operations.

Sale Notes
Located at 5445 Collins Avenue in the heart of Miami Beach’s prestigious Mid-Beach corridor. The space currently requires full renovation, serving as a premier "blank canvas" for a visionary developer or hospitality group. With no association approval needed for business type, the property is uniquely suited for a flagship nightclub, live-performance theatre, or movie theatre where the expansive vertical clearance and existing stage infrastructure allow for world-class acoustics and immersive lighting design. The layout is also ideal for a modern supper club, a high-end cabaret, or a hybrid entertainment-dining concept that requires seamless service between a commercial-grade kitchen and a grand performance space. Positioned steps from the ocean in a high-barrier-to-entry market, this asset allows an investor to curate a marquee destination that captures the high-spending demographic of the Collins Avenue corridor.
