Historic Art Deco District at South Beach

Posted by Picasa

This photo shows the variety of buildings that make up the Art Deco Historic District. The angles and curves are representive of what makes Art Deco, Art Deco.

Clearly the Art Deco weekend is meant to be a celebration of South Beach's fantastic architecture. I am limited in sharing the many photos that I took as we strolled up and down Ocean Drive, but it was a fantastic experience with the archictecture serving as background to a great street festival. We obtained a copy of the festival program and there was more going on than what we saw on the street. There were classic films from the 20's and 30's, guided tours of the architecture, seminars and art classes. Glad that we were able to see it all.
