Segregation and the Black Community “Historically, residential segregation was the rule in South Florida, even in the tourist industry. As Gary R. Mormino describes Florida tourism, it was riddled with discrimination and not just against blacks. Signs reading variously ‘Restricted Clientele,’ ‘Gentiles Only,’ ‘Exclusive,’ ‘For Whites Only,’ or ‘No Mexicans Allowed’ littered the tourism landscape. In 1953 one in five Miami Beach hotels barred Jews and all barred blacks. Further north, in places such as Pensacola and St. Augustine, terms such as ‘pickaninnies,’ ‘care-free darkies,’ and ‘mammies’ were common. As Mormino notes, ‘Along rural highways and city streets, middle class Blacks felt the sting of humiliation from routinely denied restrooms and accommodations’” (Maingot, location 1319, par. 1). Noteworthy Miami News from 1959 • Miami becomes the first city in Florida to integrate its schools. ● First Miami Publix supermarket opens. ● Palm Island’s ritzy nightclub “Latin Quarter” burns. Owned at one time by producer Lou Walters (Barbara Walters’ father), the venue drew entertainers like Sammy Davis, Jr. and Sophie Tucker, and Milton Berle. • 1959 Miami Marlins minor league baseball team. Miami Research Project StoryAuthority.com 12 of 27 • 1959 Miami Hurricanes college football team. • 1959 Florida Gators college football team. • 1959 Grand Jury reports for the spring and fall terms. • 18-year-old Nancy Rae Purvis is crowned Miss Florida • Miami wrestler Judy Grable appears on What’s My Line? Her signature move was “the Kangaroo Flip”. People of Interest Robert King High. Mayor of Miami from 1955-1967. A progressive Democrat. He promised honest government and limited campaign contributions to $250. Spoke Spanish and had a reputation for tackling corruption. Miami Research Project StoryAuthority.com 13 of 27 Brief video of Robert King High in 1964 debate. “Mayor High went after illegal gambling, insurance fraud, and exorbitant electrical and telephone rates, and successfully collected back taxes from the omnipotent Jacksonville-based East Coast Railway” (Maingot, location 1542, par. 1). “High died at age 43 while in his fifth term as Mayor of Miami. His legacy included a more honest city government, a racially integrated City Commission, and the bringing to Miami of the National Football League (NFL) franchise team, the Dolphins” (location 1557, par. 2). Meyer Lanksy Meyer Lansky became the most important gangster to head south and settle in the Greater Miami area. In 1929 he moved to an ornate Spanish-style home on Biscayne Bay, where, it was rumored, he threw a party on February 13, 1929, the night before the St. Valentine’s Day Massacre. Lansky was the first to recognize that the Greater Miami area would become a lucrative center for casino and off- track gambling and that La Cosa Nostra could invest its illicit profits in the hotels, Miami Research Project StoryAuthority.com 14 of 27 real estate, and nightclubs of the growing local economy (Chepesiuk, location 981, par. 1).

  • Architect Biographies a Number of Architects Made a Distinct
    Architect Biographies A number of architects made a distinct contribution to the architectural character of the North Beach area of the city of Miami Beach. Some of the more important individuals are listed below. Joseph J. DeBrita (1901-1992) practiced in Miami Beach from the 1930s to the 1950s. He designed dozens of residential, hotel, and apartment buildings in the Art Deco, Classical Revival, and Post-War Modern styles. These include the Villa Luisa and Ocean Blue hotels on Ocean Drive, the Dorset and Coral Reef hotels on Collins Avenue, and the Eastview Apartments (Marriott) on Washington Avenue. With architect A. Kononoff, he designed the classical revival Mount Vernon and Monticello (Harding) hotels at 63rd Street in 1946. Other notable buildings by DeBrita include the Tropicaire Hotel at 880 71st Street, and apartment buildings located at 7725 Byron Avenue and 1208 71st Street. L. Murray Dixon (1901–1949) was a native of Live Oak, Florida, educated at the Georgia Institute of Technology (1918–1919). After Dixon moved to Miami Beach, he designed, beginning in 1933, over 100 surviving buildings in the Miami Beach Architectural District (N.R. 1979). In his short lifetime, he became one of Miami Beach’s most prolific and talented designers of hotels, residences and commercial buildings. Some of the many hotels Dixon designed are The Tides, Victor, Tiffany, Marlin, Ritz Plaza and Raleigh, along with numerous apartment buildings. In North Beach, he designed the Normandy Plaza Hotel at 6979 Collins Avenue and a number of apartment buildings, including 920 Bay Drive; 7345 Byron Avenue; 7625 Abbott Avenue; and 320–328 80th Street.

  • SUMMIT HOTEL (Now Doubletree Metropolitan Hotel), 569-573 Lexington Avenue (Aka 132-166 East 51St Street), Manhattan
    Landmarks Preservation Commission May 17. 2005, Designation List 363 LP-2176 SUMMIT HOTEL (now Doubletree Metropolitan Hotel), 569-573 Lexington Avenue (aka 132-166 East 51st Street), Manhattan. Built 1959-61; Morris Lapidus, Harle & Liebman, architects. Landmark Site: Borough of Manhattan Tax Map, Block 1305, Lot 50. On March 29, 2005 the Landmarks Preservation Commission held a public hearing on the proposed designation as a Landmark of the Summit Hotel (now Doubletree Metropolitan Hotel) and the related Landmark site (Item No. 2). The hearing had been advertised in accordance with provisions of law. At this time, the owner testified, taking no position on designation. Twelve witnesses spoke in favor of designation, including representatives of the Landmarks Conservancy, Historic Districts Council, Docomomo-US, Friends of the Upper East Side, Modern Architecture Working Group, Landmark West, and the Municipal Art Society. The Commission also received numerous letters and e-mails in support of designation. The hearing was continued on April 21, 2005 (Item No. 4). Three witnesses testified in support of designation, including representatives of the Modern Architecture Working Group and Docomomo-US. At this time, a representative of the owner testified, taking no position. Summary Admired for its unusual shape, color, and stainless steel sign, the Summit Hotel is an important work by Morris Lapidus. Begun in 1959, it was the first hotel built in Manhattan in three decades and the architect’s first hotel in New York City. Lapidus was especially proud of this building and reproduced an image of the Summit on the cover of his autobiography, The Architecture of Joy, published in 1979.

  • Frank's World
    Chris Rojek / Frank Sinatra Final Proof 9.7.2004 10:22pm page 7 one FRANK’S WORLD Frank Sinatra was a World War One baby, born in 1915.1 He became a popular music phenomenon during the Second World War. By his own account, audiences adopted and idol- ized him then not merely as an innovative and accomplished vocalist – his first popular sobriquet was ‘‘the Voice’’ – but also as an appealing symbolic surrogate for American troops fighting abroad. In the late 1940s his career suffered a precipitous de- cline. There were four reasons for this. First, the public perception of Sinatra as a family man devoted to his wife, Nancy, and their children, Nancy, Frank Jr and Tina, was tarnished by his high-octane affair with the film star Ava Gardner. The public face of callow charm and steadfast moral virtue that Sinatra and his publicist George Evans concocted during his elevation to celebrity was damaged by his admitted adultery. Sinatra’s reputation for possessing a violent temper – he punched the gossip columnist Lee Mortimer at Ciro’s night- club2 and took to throwing tantrums and hurling abuse at other reporters when the line of questioning took a turn he disap- proved of – became a public issue at this time. Second, servicemen were understandably resentful of Sina- tra’s celebrity status. They regarded it as having been easily achieved while they fought, and their comrades died, overseas. Some members of the media stirred the pot by insinuating that Sinatra pulled strings to avoid the draft. During the war, like most entertainers, Sinatra made a virtue of his patriotism in his stage act and music/film output.

DIED SEPTEMBER 25, 1920 The American Jewish Year Book 5682 October 3, 1921, to September 22, 1922 Volume 23 Edited bv HARRY SCHNEIDERMAN for the AMERICAN JEWISH COMMITTEE PHILADELPHIA THE JEWISH PUBLICATION SOCIETY OF AMERICA 1921 Uewish C. P< EIS4- At COPYRIGHT, 1921, BY THE JEWISH PUBLICATION SOCIETY OF AMERICA NEWYORKUNIVERSITY WASHi^TON SQUARE LIBRARY CT CL tT w 1 RT PEEFACE The past year has witnessed no marked change in the life of the Jewish people. There has merely been a development according to tendencies resulting" from pre-war conditions and the events of the past seven years. In the chronology for 5681, although we have again reports of numerous acts of humiliation and violence committed against our brethren in Eastern Europe and Hungary, yet many hopeful signs of returning order, sanity and humanity are already visible, and there are indications that with the return of normal economic con- ditions and political stability the situation of the Jews in this region will greatly improve. In the meantime, the Jewry of the United States has become the new center of gravity of the Jewish people. If we may disregard several misguided, though dangerous, movements to transplant anti-Semitism on Ameri- can soil—movements which have met with failure thanks to the courage and clear vision of leaders of thought and opinion, and the spirit of justice and fairness which characterizes the American people—we may say that the Jews of the United States have been most favored of Providence in being spared all of the many evils and sorrows visited upon the Jews of Eastern Europe.
