Michael S. Weiner

Michael S. Weiner was born in Cleveland, Ohio. He attended Washington & Jefferson College where he graduated Magna Cum Laude. He was then accepted into the University of Michigan Law School and graduated in May 1974.

After beginning his career as a tax attorney, Mr. Weiner turned to the specialty of tax planning for real estate developers. Mr. Weiner first became familiar with redevelopment by being involved in the Tower City project in Cleveland, Ohio in the late 1970s.

Upon moving to Florida he took an active interest in real estate opportunities afforded by South Florida. He became active in the Art Deco Society in the early 1980s which advocated the re-development (as opposed to demolition) of the Art Deco Miami Beach Hotels. Moving to Palm Beach County later in the 1980s, Mr. Weiner shaped his practice in tandem with the resurgence of Delray Beach, Florida.

Mr. Weiner specializes in solving his clients' problems relating to government regulation. He is a sought-after speaker before various City and County Commissioners, Chambers of Commerce, and local civic clubs and groups about the importance of the revitalization of urban centers. He has also invested his own funds in pursuit of the same goal. He owns one of the oldest homes in Delray Beach, Florida - the 'Clark House' built in 1896 - and renovated the Tarrimore House built in 1926 and the Masonic Temple built in 1923, all in Delray Beach. He was actively involved in the planning of the Town Square project for public buildings, including City Hall, completed in 2020 for the City of Boynton Beach, which saved the 1923 High School.

As an expert in re-adaptive use, the assemblage of properties, grandfathering and similar legal issues which often stand in the way of re-development of blighted areas, Mr. Weiner continues to assist his clients in searching for proper re-development opportunities east of I-95.
