South Beach is generally characterized as the haven for the rich and famous, a distinction that certainly isn’t unjustified but does fail to represent the area properly.  Besides the vast array of South Beach homes available in numerous price ranges, the 25 blocks of South Beach offer much more than many people give it credit for.

Generally speaking, South Beach is only a relatively small area of Miami Beach yet the several miles of beachfront that act as the backyards for many Miami Beach homes and run parallel to much frequented boardwalks make it feel like a genuine city.  It’s very easy to suddenly find yourself in popular Lincoln Road where many shops and the Art Deco style are very prevalent.

Some of this design style can be found in places as seemingly mundane as a parking lot, the 1111 building on Lincoln Road to be exact.  Designed by Herzog & de Meuron, the building also doubles as a residential edifice but clearly demonstrates that South Beach has its own unique style in every minute aspect.  South Beach homes are just an added perk to an already wonderful experience.
