Cresco Labs Opens First Dispensary in Miami-Dade County

Cresco Labs recently opened its first medical cannabis dispensary location in Miami-Dade County. The new Sunnyside dispensary at 505 NE 125th St. in North Miami will provide online ordering and next-day delivery service. 

Along with providing medical marijuana products, Sunnyside dispensaries also focus on educating customers on the purchasing process. With many people unfamiliar with the process, Sunnyside helps inform customers on the differences between Indica, Sativa, hybrid, cannabinoids, and terpenes to normalize the cannabis buying experience and ensure every patient feels comfortable buying cannabis products. Many customers at Sunnyside dispensaries come to the store for the first time after receiving a medical card to alleviate pain, anxiety, etc. The company strives to help patients individually to understand what result they are looking for and what form of product they want to consume to find the proper dose to achieve the desired effect.

A unique feature of the North Miami store is a mural (pictured above) painted by Miami artist Rigo Leon.

“Growing up in Cuba, I was influenced by boats—boats built by people in pursuit of their dreams,” Leon says. “The paper boats represent that journey and help this mural convey the intersection of positivity and wellness that everyone seeks. My signature’ helping hand concept’ is based on the desire to help as many people as possible in my lifetime. It reaches toward the Sunnyside, where positivity radiates from our vision of our best selves. The large circular stars inspire people to navigate their journey, as much as they guide boats toward the warmth of Miami.”

Drew Limsky

Editor-in-Chief

BIOGRAPHY

Drew Limsky joined Lifestyle Media Group in August 2020 as Editor-in-Chief of South Florida Business & Wealth. His first issue of SFBW, October 2020, heralded a reimagined structure, with new content categories and a slew of fresh visual themes. “As sort of a cross between Forbes and Robb Report, with a dash of GQ and Vogue,” Limsky says, “SFBW reflects South Florida’s increasingly sophisticated and dynamic business and cultural landscape.”

Limsky, an avid traveler, swimmer and film buff who holds a law degree and Ph.D. from New York University, likes to say, “I’m a doctor, but I can’t operate—except on your brand.” He wrote his dissertation on the nonfiction work of Joan Didion. Prior to that, Limsky received his B.A. in English, summa cum laude, from Emory University and earned his M.A. in literature at American University in connection with a Masters Scholar Award fellowship.

Limsky came to SFBW at the apex of a storied career in journalism and publishing that includes six previous lead editorial roles, including for some of the world’s best-known brands. He served as global editor-in-chief of Lexus magazine, founding editor-in-chief of custom lifestyle magazines for Cadillac and Holland America Line, and was the founding editor-in-chief of Modern Luxury Interiors South Florida. He also was the executive editor for B2B magazines for Acura and Honda Financial Services, and he served as travel editor for Conde Nast. Magazines under Limsky’s editorship have garnered more than 75 industry awards.

He has also written for many of the country’s top newspapers and magazines, including The New York Times, Washington Post, Los Angeles Times, Miami Herald, Boston Globe, USA Today, Worth, Robb Report, Afar, Time Out New York, National Geographic Traveler, Men’s Journal, Ritz-Carlton, Elite Traveler, Florida Design, Metropolis and Architectural Digest Mexico. His other clients have included Four Seasons, Acqualina Resort & Residences, Yahoo!, American Airlines, Wynn, Douglas Elliman and Corcoran. As an adjunct assistant professor, Limsky has taught journalism, film and creative writing at the City University of New York, Pace University, American University and other colleges.
