The unusually intact collection of 600 mid-20th century garden-style apartment buildings, schools and places of worship that make up Miami Beach's North Shore district -- South Beach's funky, forgotten little brother -- now has something of its own to boast about.

It's been accepted for inclusion in the National Register of Historic Places, an honor that city officials and North Shore boosters hope will sharpen the district's profile, allowing it to step out from its better-known sibling's long shadow.

The district's inclusion also cements recognition of the once-derided architectural style that has popularly come to be known as Miami Modern, or MiMo -- the breezy, geometric designs that predominate throughout North Shore.

Florida got hammered more than most. Prices might not get this low again. Parts of it are overbuilt schlock that will be revealed as schlock (to those who can't already tell) as its bland veneer ages. The authentic will grow disproportionately in value. [The author is completely clueless about real estate and finance in general.] Another random observation: Northern Florida is S. Georgia. Southern Florida is a major hub of the Americas.

the thing about miami beach is you can get away with just taking cabs to and from the airports and not renting a car. once you get there bike around. usually good cheep airfares and if you do rent a car theres usually a budget rate if you shop for them.
