What’s Out There® Miami South Florida Dear What’s Out There Weekend Visitor, Welcome to What’s Out There Weekend Miami, organized by The Cultural Landscape Foundation (TCLF). The materials in this guide will tell you about the history and design of the places you can tour during this free event, the ninth in a series that we offer each year in cities and regions throughout the United States. Please keep this guide as a reference for future explorations of the greater Miami area’s significant landscapes. On April 12th and 13th, during What’s Out There Weekend Miami, residents and visitors have opportunities to discover more than thirty of the region’s publicly accessible landscapes through free, expert-led tours. Miami and South Florida’s landscape legacy extends from its Spanish Colonial roots to the present, where strong Modernist, Beaux Arts, and Mediterranean design concepts from Europe and the Eastern U.S. are expressed in unique gardens, parks, plazas, estates, and streetscapes. Explore Miami and South Florida landscapes through tours that include entertaining anecdotes and intriguing stories about city shaping, landscape Photo courtesy The Biltmore Hotel architecture, and the city’s design history. The tours reveal the story behind these valued places and the individuals who designed or made them. What’s Out There Weekend dovetails with the Web-based What’s Out There, the nation’s most comprehensive searchable database of historic designed landscapes. The database currently features more than 1,500 sites, 10,000 images, and 750 designer profiles. In 2013What's Out There was optimized for iPhones and similar handheld devices, and includes a new feature – What's Nearby – a GPS-enabled function that locates all landscapes in the database within a 25-mile radius of any given location. The Cultural Landscape Foundation (TCLF) On behalf of The Cultural Landscape Foundation, I thank you for participating in What’s Out TCLF provides the tools to see, understand and value landscape architecture and There Weekend and hope you enjoy the tours. its practitioners in the way many people have learned to do with buildings and their designers. Through its Web site, lectures, outreach and publishing, TCLF Sincerely, broadens the support and understanding for cultural landscapes nationwide to help safeguard our priceless heritage for future generations. learn more at tclf.org Charles A.

    8.1 GOALS, OBJECTIVES, AND POLICIES 8.1.1 Introduction The appearance and quality of City facilities can greatly impact the quality of life within the community. Because of the significant number of citizens who generally come in contact with the recreation program facilities, it is apparent that their condition and appearance will have a direct impact on their utilization. Therefore, in order to improve conditions and appearance of Parks and Recreation Facilities, the following goals, objectives and policies should be accomplished during the next five years. GOAL 1: The City of Hallandale Beach shall continue to upgrade public park and recreation facilities in an effort to assure a positive quality of life for all residents of the City. OBJECTIVE 1.1: The City shall establish a Parks and Recreation Improvement Plan in 2010 which explores the park and recreational needs of the community. This plan will be updated annually. POLICY 1.1.1: The City shall institute parks and recreation facility planning which has been identified in the Parks and Recreation Improvement Plan to meet the needs of the community. POLICY 1.1.2: The City shall maintain and enhance recreation and open space by implementing a recreation open space standard of 3.25 acres per 1,000 permanent residents. For the purpose of calculating this ratio, 28.44 acres of the Golden Isles Waterway shall be included in the inventory. POLICY 1.1.3: The City shall continue to coordinate public and private resources to ensure the recreational and open space needs of all City residents are met.

    121 the Herpetofauna of the Doc Thomas House in South

    121 Florida Field Naturalist 27(3):121-123, 1999. THE HERPETOFAUNA OF THE DOC THOMAS HOUSE IN SOUTH MIAMI, FLORIDA WALTER E. MESHAKA, JR. Everglades Regional Collections Center, Everglades National Park, 40001 SR-9336, Homestead, Florida 33034-6733 [email protected] Thirty-nine species of exotic reptiles and amphibians are established in Florida (Butterfield et al. 1997; Meshaka et al. 1999), 34 of which are found in Dade County. Nearly all of these exotics inhabit buildings and disturbed habitat. The Doc Thomas House (DTH), built in 1931 by Dr. Arden Hayes Thomas in what is now the city of South Miami, represents one such site. The property is a remnant parcel of the once extensive rockland pine/tropical hardwood hammock mosaic of the Atlantic coastal ridge (Lodge 1998). One year before his death in 1974, Dr. Thomas donated his house and approxi- mately 1.2 ha of land to the Tropical Audubon Society for environmental and education purposes. The property was poorly tended from the mid 1950s until the early 1990s, when efforts were made to restore the site to pineland and two hammocks by removing unwanted exotic species and replacing them with native flora. However, some exotic plants were retained for historical reasons. The area north and west of the property is the commercial district of the City of South Miami. Urban residential areas surround DTH to the south and east. Consequently, the house grounds represent a small, semi- natural island within an ocean of human commerce and habitation. DTH thus provides an opportunity to measure the response of the southern Florida herpetofauna to the res- toration of a fragment of once natural and expansive habitat that is now imbedded in an urban setting.

Our efforts to conserve and preserve this magniBicent estate located in our backyard, unites us with citizens of Sitges on the other side of the Atlantic. Those who went on our fundraising cruise in April experienced the small town of Sitges’ gratitude to the memory of the Town’s Adopted Son, Charles Deering. One hundred and ten years from the time Deering Birst visited Sitges, we were welcomed like long lost family with choral songs, champagne, and stories of the beloved adopted son’s vision, philanthropy and economic contributions. The stories we share are similar, like here in Cutler, Deering built an “architectural gem” in Sitges and Billed it at the time President Maria and husband David toast a very successful fundraiser with art by renowned artists. The town’s warm cruise to Spain…with side trips to Sitges and Tamarit. welcome given to us was inspiring because it demonstrates their deep “If we love, and we do, appreciation for Charles Deering’s vision and legacy which we both strive to what Charles Deering preserve.

    Florida Bibliography

    A HISTORICAL BIBLIOGRAPHY OF THE BUILT ENVIRONMENT IN MIAMI AND SOUTHERN FLORIDA Originally compiled by Malinda Cleary, Richard Longstreth, and Aristides J. Millas Edited by Richard Longstreth 1999, revised 31 December 2017 This bibliography focuses on historical accounts written during the past three decades. Owing to the extent material, and the nature of much of its contents, I have made no attempt to separate popular from scholarly accounts or general histories from those that are devoted to the built environment. The basic divisions are geographical, followed by one on architects and landscape architects in the region. My gratitude goes to Melinda Cleary and Aristides Millas for compiling the core of these listings.
