How close does the game get to the real place?

In the game

The skyscraper district in the north of the mainland, home to Hyman Memorial Stadium and the city's tallest towers.

The real place

Downtown Miami is the city's business district on Biscayne Bay and has one of the densest clusters of high rises in the US. The game squeezes it into a few blocks, and wikis suggest its tallest tower borrows from the Southeast Financial Center and the Bank of America Tower.

Visiting

The free Metromover loops through the district on elevated tracks and is the easiest way to see the towers. Bayfront Park and Bayside Marketplace are on the waterfront.
