  • Boca Raton and the Florida Land Boom of the 1920S
    20 TEQUESTA Boca Raton and the Florida Land Boom of the 1920s by Donald W. Curl The Florida land boom of 1924-25 is commonly mentioned by historians of the twenties and of the South. Most of them see the boom as a phenomenon of the Miami area, though they usually mention in passing that no part of the state remained immune to the speculation fever. Certainly Miami's developments received major attention from the national press and compiled amazing financial statistics for sales and inflated prices. Still, similar activity took place throughout the state. Moreover, the real estate boom in Palm Beach County began as early as that in Miami, contained schemes that equaled that city's in their imagination and fantasy, and also captured national attention. Finally, one of these schemes, that of Addison Mizner's Boca Raton, probably served as the catalyst for exploiting the boom bubble. The Florida land boom resulted from a number of complex fac- tors. Obviously, the mild winter climate had drawn visitors to the state since the Civil War. Summer was said "to spend the winter in West Palm Beach." Now with the completion of the network of roads known as the Dixie Highway and the increasing use of the automobile, Florida became easily accessible to the cities of the northeast and midwest. For some, revolting against the growing urbanization of the north, Florida became "the last frontier." Others found romance in the state's long and colorful history and "fascination in her tropical vege- tation and scenery." Many were confident in the lasting nature of the Coolidge prosperity, and, hearing the success stories of the earliest Donald W.

  • The Architectural Style of Bay Pines VAMC
    The Architectural Style of Bay Pines VAMC Lauren Webb July 2011 The architectural style of the original buildings at Bay Pines VA Medical Center is most often described as “Mediterranean Revival,” “Neo-Baroque,” or—somewhat rarely—“Churrigueresque.” However, with the shortage of similar buildings in the surrounding area and the chronological distance between the facility’s 1933 construction and Baroque’s popularity in the 17th and 18th centuries, it is often wondered how such a style came to be chosen for Bay Pines. This paper is an attempt to first, briefly explain the Baroque and Churrigueresque styles in Spain and Spanish America, second, outline the renewal of Spanish-inspired architecture in North American during the early 20th century, and finally, indicate some of the characteristics in the original buildings which mark Bay Pines as a Spanish Baroque- inspired building. The Spanish Baroque and Churrigueresque The Baroque style can be succinctly defined as “a style of artistic expression prevalent especially in the 17th century that is marked by use of complex forms, bold ornamentation, and the juxtaposition of contrasting elements.” But the beauty of these contrasting elements can be traced over centuries, particularly for the Spanish Baroque, through the evolution of design and the input of various cultures living in and interacting with Spain over that time. Much of the ornamentation of the Spanish Baroque can be traced as far back as the twelfth century, when Moorish and Arabesque design dominated the architectural scene, often referred to as the Mudéjar style. During the time of relative peace between Muslims, Christians, and Jews in Spain— the Convivencia—these Arabic designs were incorporated into synagogues and cathedrals, along with mosques.

  • Addison Mizner's Ritz-Carlton Cloister Opens FALL 1982 VOL
    X.'I ! JJ* Fall 1982 liurr Addison Mizner's Ritz-Carlton Cloister Opens FALL 1982 VOL. XI NO. 1 Near the end of November 1925 T. Coleman du Pont resigned as chairman of the Mizner Development Corpora- tion. For the small Florida real estate investor, the great wealth at du Pont's command and the financial repu- tation he gained as a founder of the modern DuPont corpor- ation, seemed to guarantee the soundness of the Boca Raton venture. His departure from the company caused an imme- diate decline in Boca Raton sales, and according to one author, may have caused the collapse of the entire Florida land boom. The opening of the Cloister, just two months after du Pont's resignation, took on added meaning for the Mizner company. The unquestioned beauty of the small hotel demonstrated Addison Mizner's vision for his entire development. His opening night guests from Palm Beach society, the show business world, and the British aristocracy proved a continuing interest in the develop- ment by the fashionable. Finally, the publicity gained from the opening could keep Boca Raton at the forefront of OLD CITY HALL, HOME OF BOCA RATON HISTORICAL SOCIETY Florida promotions. Jeanne Nixon Baur, Artist T. H. Weigall, in his 1931 book Boom in Florida, told how almost every newspaper or magazine article about Coral Cables came from the company's own publicity department.

    $ $ $ MIAMI MILLIO NS $ $ $ CHAPTER FIFTEEN MEASURED in terms of hope, the crash of the dream city of Addison Mizner's Boca Raton was perhaps the greatest tragedy of the 1925 Florida boom. Addison Mizner, architect, artist and creator, was one of the few to inject true poetry of color and line into Florida building. He started to do for a city on the ocean's edge at Boca Raton what he had accomplished as an architect in Palm Beach on the beautiful Everglades club, on the palatial villa of Mr. and Mrs. E. T. Stotes- bury, on the equally gorgeous Cosden villa, the mansions of Van- derbilt, Wanamaker and 80 others. Only one of the incredible Mizners could have laid out Boca Raton. Had he started a year before, we might have there another Coral Gables, but unfortunately Boca Raton went on the market in June, 1925, sold $9,000,000 in lots in as many weeks, and gently subsided before the great Ritz-Carlton Hotel could be built, or the dozens of millionaire stockholders could begin to line its Camino Real with their estates. Not long ago, a paragraph in the newspapers told of the fed- eral court here approving a plan of reorganization of Addison Mizner, Inc., involving refinancing to the extent of $130,000. The Cloister, which Mizner built as a sort of warming-up exercise and administration building while his bigger plans gained momentum, was bought several years ago by Clarence H. Geist, Philadelphia public utilities owner, and made into the exclusive Boca Raton club. It was opened in February, 1926, and cost $10,000 a room.

  • Palm Beach and West Palm Beach Attractions
    09_595369_ch05.qxd 10/24/05 12:11 PM Page 285 PART FIVE PALM BEACH COUNTY WELCOME to PALM BEACH TRUMP AND THE BREAKERS, TRUMPETS AT the Philharmonic, and breaking the bank are people and things associated with mostly rar- efied, sometimes vilified, but always fascinating Palm Beach. Palm Beach County is larger than Delaware, but most visitors are aware only of the opulent “Gold Coast,” from Palm Beach to Boca Raton. But there are 37 other municipalities and unincorporated areas, and the county includes 47 miles of beaches on the east, and Lake Okeechobee and the Everglades on the west. Delray Beach, between Boca and Palm Beach, has become a lively, desirable place to play and live. West Palm Beach is becoming a shop- ping and entertainment destination in itself, far less stuffy than its rich neighbor across Lake Worth. And west of the coast, past the suburban communities, are citrus groves, ranches, and wildlife refuges. A BRIEF HISTORY THE COUNTY’S EARLIEST KNOWN RESIDENTS were Native Ameri- cans, but the region was claimed for Spain in 1513. The nascent United States purchased the territory of Florida three centuries later. The Seminole Indian tribe’s famous resistance to forced relocation promptedCOPYRIGHTED three wars. The third, fought MATERIAL between 1835 and 1842, ended Indian control of the area. The county’s oldest nonnative set- tlement, Jupiter, was founded as a wartime fort in 1836. The Jupiter Lighthouse began operating in 1860 and continues to the present. In the 1890s, visionary Henry Flagler, a founding partner of Stan- dard Oil, built the Florida East Coast Railway system from Jacksonville to Key West to open the state as a winter paradise.

  • Firmness, Commodity, and Delight: Architecture in Special Collections
    1 FIRMNESS, COMMODITY, AND DELIGHT: ARCHITECTURE IN SPECIAL COLLECTIONS Writing near the end of the first century B.C.E., Roman architect Vitruvius Pollio identified three elements necessary for a well-designed building: firmitas, utilitas,and venustas. Firmness or physical strength secured the building’s structural integrity. Utility provided an efficient arrangement of spaces and mechanical systems to meet the functional needs of its occupants. And venustas, the aesthetic quality associated with the goddess Venus, imparted style, proportion, and visual beauty. Rendered memorably into English by Henry Wotton, a seventeenthcentury translator, “firmness, commodity, and delight” remain the essential components of all successful architectural design. Architecture has been a part of the Library’s holdings since 1891, when President William Rainey Harper purchased the complete stock of a Berlin book dealer for the University of Chicago. Among the treasures acquired for the Library with this collection were early editions of works on classical architecture, sculpture, and design, along with a 15th-century manuscript of Leon Battista Alberti’s influential architectural treatise, De re aedificatoria. Subsequent gifts, acquisitions, and archival transfers have brought added distinction and variety to the Library’s architecture collections: theoretical works and popular manuals, records of the University’s physical development, papers of urban planners, postcards and ephemera, photographs, and architectural drawings and blueprints. Based on the holdings of the Special Collections Research Center, the architectural selections displayed in this exhibition suggest the diversity of these resources and their rich potential for research across a broad range of topics in the arts of building and design. “Firmness, Commodity, and Delight” celebrates the opening of the new Special Collections Research Center Exhibition Gallery and the completion of the Joe and Rika Mansueto Library.

  • Addison Mizner Leaves His Mark
    ADDISON MIZNER LEAVES HIS MARK TOPIC: Addison Mizner and Palm Beach Architecture AIM: Students will become familiar with and be able to recognize design elements of the Mediterranean-Revival style houses and other buildings inspired by Addison Mizner. They will use these concepts to make a pictorial town of their own creation. RELATED SUBJECT AREAS: Art and Social Studies SUNSHINE STATE STANDARDS: Social Studies: SS.A.1.2.1 SS.A.1.2.2 Visual Arts: VA.B.1.2.1 VA.C.1.2.1 SS.A.6.2.3 SS.B.1.2.2 VA.C.1.2.2 VA.D.1.2.2 VA.E. 1.2.1 BACKGROUND INFORMATION: One of the features of Boca Raton and South Florida, which is clearly recognized, is its unique style of architecture. Addison Mizner is one man whose vision left that unique mark. He lived in Central America and Spain so he was greatly influenced by the Mediterranean style. He came to Palm Beach County during the South Florida land boom and in 1918 he began to build elegant homes for wealthy families. His buildings could be identified by the handmade red barrel tiles he used for roofs and the rough textured stucco walls. He made extensive use of wrought iron decorative grills and lightening fixtures. The windows and door frames were made of cast stone. There were arches and columns and even towers. Much of the materials used in his buildings were made in his factories in West Palm Beach. The furniture for the homes was either imported from the Mediterranean or built in Mizner’s workshop.
