Miami Beach's Centennial (100) Year Birthday- Let's Remember...

Miami Beach is celebrating it's centennial for 100 hours from March 22-26! Check out these old pictures from the archives...

Before all of the development, Miami Beach was just a barrier island off the coast of mangrove swamps and the everglades. In fact, Henry Flagler didn't even want to extend his railroads down to Miami because he thought nothing would ever come of the cities... Until there was a hard winter and most of the country froze, killing lots of crops, but not in Miami!
