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.

"House of Cars" at the National Building Museum proves that the parking garage can be an urban asset, even a beautiful structure to behold. This fascinating exhibition traces the history of the prosaic building type, from horse stables used for auto storage to a pool-topped car shed at the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art in Kansas City, Mo.
The concept for the show was brought to the museum by Shannon Sanders McDonald, author of the 2007 book "The Parking Garage: Design and Evolution of a Modern Urban Form." Curator Sarah Leavitt worked with exhibit designer Patrick Rogan to expand Ms. McDonald's ideas through an animated installation of photos, architectural models, drawings, artworks and film clips.

Nothing lasts forever. Not even the most recognizable of automotive designs, on sale off and on since 1938.
At the Los Angeles Auto Show, Volkswagen announced the end of production for the current New Beetle. The VW display at LA showed "Final Edition" coupe and convertible models. The aptly named New Beetles go on sale this spring, and then production is over.
