The MiMo District of Miami features Miami Modern architecture (1945-late 60s), a style that blends post-war energy and excitement with design features that make the buildings well-suited to the subtropics.
Resort MiMo features futuristic elements from automobiles and space age design, like acute angles, boomerangs and trapezoids.
Subtropical Modernism uses breezy corridors, covered galleries and shaded courtyards to satisfy Miami-ians desire to live outside in comfort.
Upper Biscayne Boulevard became Miami Dade’s first paved road in 1892, and has served as Miami’s gateway since 1857 when the Military Trail linked Fort Dallas and Fort Lauderdale. In 1925, the road was widened into the multi-laned landscaped road of today.
