Art Deco District |
Three architectural
styles are predominant in Miami Beach — Art Deco,
Mediterranean Revival and MiMo (Miami Modernism.) To
this mix has been added a new group of buildings
designed by Contemporary architects carrying on in the
tradition of what we now recognize as the Miami Beach
School of Architecture. These buildings taken together
create a unique Open Air Museum of 20th Century
Architecture, making our city’s renown for 20th Century
architecture comparable to Williamsburg, Virginia’s
association with Colonial architecture.

Everglades |
With 1.5 million acres
of swamps, saw-grass prairies and sub-tropical jungles,
Everglades National Park is one of the most unusual
public parks in the United States. Located on the
southern tip of Florida, the park is home to 14 rare and
endangered species, including the American Crocodile,
the Florida Panther and the West Indian Manatee. A large
portion of the park is primitive, explored only by brave
souls and researchers – but visitors have ample
opportunity to walk, camp and canoe.
