Miami Beach is a beach resort town in Miami-Dade County, Florida, United States. It was founded on March 26, 1915. The municipality is located on a natural and manmade barrier island between the Atlantic Ocean and Biscayne Bay, the last of which separates the Beach from Miami. The neighborhood of South Beach, comprising 2.5 square miles south of Miami Beach, along with downtown Miami and Port of Miami, collectively forms the commercial center of South Florida. At the 2010 census, Miami Beach has a total population of 87,779. It has been one of America's flagship beach resorts since the beginning of the 20th century.
In 1979, Art Deco Historic District of Miami Beach is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The Art Deco district is the largest collection of Art Deco architecture in the world and consists of hundreds of hotels, apartments and other structures established between 1923 and 1943. The Mediterranean, Streamline Moderne and Art Deco are all represented in the District. The Historic District is bordered by the Atlantic Ocean in the East, Lenox Court in the West, 6th Street to the South and Dade Boulevard along the Collins Canal to the North. The movement to preserve the architectural heritage of the Art Deco District was led by former interior designer Barbara Capitman, who now has a street in the District named in her honor.

History
In 1870, a father and son, Henry and Charles Lum, bought the land for 75 cents per acre. The first structure built on this uninhabited beach is the Biscayne House of Refuge, built in 1876 by the US Lifestyle Services on about 72nd Street. The goal is to provide food, water, and return to civilization for stranded people. The next step in future Miami Beach development is the planting of coconut plantations along the coast in the 1880s by New Jersey entrepreneurs Ezra Osborn and Elnathan Field, but this is a failed attempt. One of the investors in the project was farmer John S. Collins, who achieved success by buying another partner and planting different crops, especially avocados, on land that would later become Miami Beach. Meanwhile, across from Biscayne Bay, the City of Miami was established in 1896 with the advent of the railroad, and was further developed as a port when the Government Cut shipping channel was made in 1905, cutting off Fisher Island from the southern tip of Miami's coastal Peninsula.
Collins family members see the potential in developing the beach as a resort. This effort has been made in the early years of the 20th century by the Collins/Pancoast family, the Lummus brothers (bankers from Miami), and Indianapolis businessman Carl G. Fisher. Until then, the beach here is just a destination for a day trip by ferry from Miami, across the bay. In 1912, Collins and Pancoast worked together to clear the land, plant crops, supervise the construction of channels to get their avocado plants into the market, and set up a Miami Beach Repair Company. There are bath houses and food stalls, but no hotels until Brown's Hotel was built in 1915 (still standing, at 112 Ocean Drive). Most of the inland lands at the time were mangled mangrove forests. Cleaning it up, deepening channels and bodies of water, and eliminating the almost ubiquitous native growth that benefits the landfill for development, is costly. After 1600-acre, a three-mile sandstone forest bar in the Atlantic, it grew to 2,800 hectares when dredging and replenishment operations were completed.
With a loan from the Lummus brothers, Collins began working on a 2 ½ mile wooden bridge, the longest wooden bridge in the world at that time, to connect the island to the mainland. When the funds run out and construction work stalled, the recent Indianapolis millionaire and Miami transplant Fisher intervened, providing the necessary financing to complete the next year's bridge in return for a land swap deal. The deal kicked off the first real estate boom on the island. Fisher helps by arranging the annual speed boat regatta, and by promoting Miami Beach as an Atlantic style playground and winter retreat for the rich. In 1915, Lummus, Collins, Pancoast, and Fisher all lived in the luxury mansion on the island, three hotels and two bath houses had been erected, a built aquarium, and an 18-hole golf course.
The city of Miami Beach was rented on March 26, 1915; grew into a City in 1917. Even after the city was founded in 1915 under the name of Miami Beach, many visitors thought of beach strips as Alton Beach, showing just how well Fisher had advertised his interest there. The Lummus property is called Ocean Beach, with only Collins's interests previously referred to as Miami Beach.
Carl Fisher was the principal promoter of Miami Beach's development in the 1920s as a site for wealthy industrialists from the North and Midwest to and build their winter home here. Many other North people are targeted to vacation on the island. To accommodate the wealthy tourists, several major hotels are built, including: Flamingo Hotel, The Fleetwood Hotel, The Floridian, The Nautilus and Roney Plaza Hotel. In the 1920s, Fisher and others created most of Miami Beach as a waste dump through Biscayne Bay; These artificial areas include Star, Palm, and Hibiscus Islands, Sunset Islands, most of the Normandy Isle, and all the Venetian Islands except Belle Isle. The Peninsula Miami Beach became an island in April 1925 when Haulover Cut opened, connecting the sea to the bay, north of Bal Harbor at this time. The Great 1926 Miami hurricane ended the prosperous era of the Florida Boom, but in the 1930s Miami Beach still attracted tourists, and investors built small-scale hotels, stucco and boarding houses, for seasonal rentals, consisting of many historic districts of "Art Deco" currently.
Carl Fisher took Steve Hannagan to Miami Beach in 1925 as his chief of public relations. Hannagan arranges the Miami Beach News Bureau and tells the news editor that they can "Print whatever you want about Miami Beach, make sure you get our name right." The News Bureau sent thousands of pictures of beauty baths and press releases to columnists such as Walter Winchell and Ed Sullivan. One of Hannagan's favorite places was a billboard in Times Square, New York City, where he had two slogans: "'Always June in Miami Beach' and 'Miami Beach, Where Summer Spends the Winter.'"
The post-World War II economic expansion brought a wave of immigrants to South Florida from the Northern United States, which significantly increased the population in Miami Beach in decades. After Fidel Castro rose to power in 1959, a wave of Cuban refugees entered South Florida and dramatically changed the demographics of the region. In 2017, a study named zipcode 33109 in Miami Beach has the fourth most expensive home sales in the United States.
Timeline
Culture
South Beach (also known as SoBe, or just Beach), the area of ​​Biscayne Street (also known as South Pointe Drive) one block south of 1st Street to about 23rd Street, is one of the more popular areas of Miami Beach. Although the topless sunbathing by women has not been formally passed, women's toplessness is tolerated in South Beach and in several hotel pools in Miami Beach. Before the Miami Vice TV show helped make the area popular, SoBe was under the hustle and bustle of urban areas, with empty buildings and high crime rates. Today, it is considered one of the richest commercial areas on the coast, but poverty and crime still exist in some places near the area.
Miami Beach, especially Ocean Drive from what is now the Art Deco District, also stands out in the 1983 feature film Scarface and the 1996 comedy The Birdcage .
The New World Symphony Orchestra is based in Miami Beach, under the direction of Michael Tilson Thomas.
Lincoln Road, runs east-west parallel between 16 and 17 Streets, is a nationally known place for outdoor dining, cycling, rollerblading and shopping and galleries feature renowned designers, artists and photographers such as Romero Britto, Peter Lik, and Jonathan Adler.
Jewish population
Miami Beach is home to a number of Orthodox Jewish communities with established networks of synagogues and yeshiva, the first being Landow Yeshiva, a Chabad institution that operates for over 30 years. There is also a liberal Jewish community that includes famous synagogues such as the Emanu-El Temple and the Hebrew Cuban Church. Miami Beach is also a magnet for Jewish families, pensioners, and especially snowbirds when winter arrives in the north. These visitors range from Orthodox Modern to Haredi and Hasidic - including many rebbes who vacation there during the winter of North America. Until his death in 1991, Nobel Nobel laureate Isaac Bashevis Singer lived in the north end of Miami Beach and often had breakfast at Sheldon's drugstore on Harding Avenue.
There are a number of halal and even kollel restaurants for graduate Talmudic scholars, such as Miami Beach Community Kollel. Miami Beach has about 60,000 people in Jewish households, 62 percent of the total population, in 1982, but only 16,500, or 19 percent of the population, in 2004, said Ira Sheskin, a demographer at the University of Miami who conducted a one-. The Jewish community of Miami Beach has decreased in size in 1994 due to migration to richer areas and population aging.
Miami Beach is home to the Holocaust Memorial in Miami Beach.
LGBT community
After decades of economic and social decline, the entry of gays and lesbians who moved to South Beach in the late 1980s to the mid-1990s led to the revitalization of Miami Beach. Newcomers buy and restore the dilapidated Art Deco hotels and clubs, start many businesses, and build political power in city and district government. As South Beach became more popular as a national and international tourist destination, there was occasional clashes between cultures and disagreements about whether South Beach was as "gay-friendly" as it used to be.
Miami Beach is home to many gay bars and gay special events, and five service organizations and resources. Part of the progressive civil rights law, the election of pro-gay Miami Beach Mayor Matti Bower, and the introduction of Gay Pride Miami Beach, has revived the local LGBT community in recent years, some of whom have argued for a decline in the late 2000s. Some examples of Miami Beach Police brutality against gay men have gone against the long-term image of Miami Beach as a friendly place for gay people.
Miami Beach is home to some of the largest fundraisers in the country benefiting both local and national LGBT nonprofits. In 2011, some of the biggest LGBT events in Miami Beach are:
- Winter Party
- White Party
- Dinner Recognition Miami
- The Miami Gay & amp; Lesbian Film Festival
- Aqua Girl
In 2008, the new Miami Beach Mayor, Matti Bower created the Gay Development Business Development Committee, with a mission to provide recommendations to the Mayor and the City Commission on initiatives that will be implemented and supported by the city on issues to ensure the well-being and future of LGBT Miami community Beach.
While becoming a gay qibla in the 1980s and 1990s, Miami Beach never had a Gay Pride Parade inaugurated by April 2009. With the strong support of Matti Bower's newly elected mayor, Miami Beach held its first Gay Pride Festival in April 2009. This is now an annual event. Pride of 2010 attracted tens of thousands of people.
In 2009, the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) began looking for examples from the Miami Beach Police Department (MBPD) that target gay men for abuse. In February 2010, the ACLU announced that it would sue Miami Beach for targeting and catching gay men in public. According to the ACLU, Miami Beach police have a history of catching gay men for just looking "too gay".
Incidents between gay men and MBPD resulted in negative publicity for the city. At a meeting with local gay leaders, Miami Beach Police Chief Carlos Noriega claimed the incident was isolated, promising an increase in diversity training for police officers. He also announced that a captain, who is a lesbian, would soon be transferred to Internal Affairs to deal with complaints about police accused of harassing gays. Some committee members are skeptical of Noriega's assertion that recent cases show no greater problems in the MBPD, and provide examples of other cases.
In January 2010, Miami Beach issued a revised Human Rights Act that strengthens the enforcement of existing human rights law and adds protection for transgender people, making Miami Beach's human rights law the most progressive in the state. Both residents, and visitors, Miami Beach has been able to register as a domestic partner since 2004; in 2008, this benefit was extended to the entire Miami-Dade Region.
In 2010, Miami-Dade Gay & amp; Lesbian Chamber of Commerce, with support from Miami Beach City, opens the LGBT Visitor Center in Miami Beach's Old Town Hall.
Art
Every December, the City of Miami Beach hosts the Art Basel Miami Beach, one of the largest performing arts in the United States. Art Basel Miami Beach, the art Basel event held every June in Basel, Switzerland, combines the selection of top international galleries with special exhibition programs, parties and crosses featuring music, movies, architecture and design. The exhibition grounds are located in the city's Art Deco District, and additional events are scattered throughout the larger metropolitan area of ​​Miami.
Miami Beach is home to the New World Symphony, founded in 1987 under the artistic direction of Michael Tilson Thomas. In January 2011, the New World Symphony made a highly publicized move to the New World Center building designed by American Pritzker winning architect Frank Gehry Canada. Gehry is famous for designing the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao, Spain, and the Walt Disney Concert Hall in Los Angeles, California. The new Gehry Building offers Live Wallcasts â„¢, which allows visitors to experience an all-season event at half-acre, outdoor Miami Beach SoundScape through the use of visual and audio technology on a 7,000 square foot (650 m 2 ) wall projection.
The Miami City Ballet, a ballet company founded in 1985, is housed in a 63,000 square foot building (5,900 m 2 ) near Bass Museum of Art Miami Beach.
Miami Beach Art Festival is an annual outdoor art festival that started in 1974.
Geography
According to the US Census Bureau, the city has a total area of ​​18.7 m² (48.5 km 2 ), where 7.0 m² (18.2 km 2 ) is ground and 11,7 m² (30,2 km 2 ) (62,37%) is water.
Altitude and tidal flood
Miami Beach faces tidal flooding from certain streets during the annual tide of kings, although some tidal flooding has occurred for decades, as parts of the western side of South Beach are at nearly 0 feet (0 m) above normal tide, the city averaged only 4.4 feet (1.3 m) above average sea level (AMSL). However, a recent study by the University of Miami showed that tidal flooding became much more common than the mid-2000s. Autumn 2015 tide king exceeds expectations in longevity and height. Traditional sea level rise and storm mitigation measures including sea walls and embankments, such as those in the Netherlands and New Orleans, may not work in South Florida because of the porous soil and limestone below the surface.
In addition to the difficulties present with lower class development, some areas of south Florida, especially Miami Beach, began specialized engineers for sea level rise and other potential effects of climate change. These include a five-year project, $ 500 million for the installation of 60 to 80 pumps, construction of higher sea walls, red mangrove planting along the sea wall, and physical asphalt level increases, as well as the possibility of zoning and building code changes, can lead to retrofitting existing and historic properties. Some roads and sidewalks are raised about 2.5 feet (0.76 m) above the previous level; four initial pumps installed in 2014 are capable of pumping 4,000 gallons per minute. However, this plan is not without criticism. Some residents fear that such efforts will not be enough to successfully adapt to rising sea levels and hope the city has pursued a more aggressive plan. On the other hand, there is concern that the city is moving too fast with untested solutions. Others have not expressed concerns that the plan is protecting the big-money interests in Miami Beach. Failure of such pumps during construction or power outages, including Tropical Storms associated with the flooding of rain on August 1, 2017, could lead to unexpected large floods. Combined with higher streets and sidewalks, these leaves are relatively inferior and flood-prone.
Climate
According to the climatic classification of koppen, Miami Beach has a tropical monsoon climate. Like most of Florida, there is a season marked wet and dry in Miami Beach. The tropical rainy season runs from May to October, when rain and lightning storms are common. The dry season is from November to April, when some rain, sun, and low humidity occur. However, the island's location from Miami Beach creates fewer convection storms, so Miami Beach receives less rainfall in a given year than the surrounding areas such as Miami and Fort Lauderdale. Its proximity to the moderating influence of the Atlantic gives Miami Beach lower temperatures high and lows higher than the inland Florida. In addition to Florida Keys (and Key West), Miami Beach is the only US city (land) that has never reported the occurrence of snow floods in weather history.
The Miami Beach location in the Atlantic Ocean, near its encounter with the Gulf of Mexico, makes it particularly vulnerable to hurricanes and tropical storms. Although direct attacks from hurricanes are rare (Miami has only suffered two direct blows from major storms in recorded weather history - Miami 1926 and Hurricane Cleo storms in 1964), the area has seen indirect contacts of hurricanes Betsy (1965) Inez (1966). ), Andrew (1992), Irene (1999), Michelle (2001), Katrina (2005), Wilma (2005), and Irma (2017).
