In Miami, the consequences Were enormous, as millions took to the roads in search of exotic destinations. The result Was the building of hundreds of motels throughout the state, for Miami that identity has been characterized as Miami Modern, or MiMo. § The Word “motel” is derived from “motor” combined With “hotel”, inferring that these accommodations Were designed for the highWay traveler. § The success of a motel Was dependent on a series of factors. They included climate, access to highWays, and the attractiveness of the surroundings, sufficient parking space, and the proximity to tourist destinations. For each factor, the motels of Biscayne Boulevard excelled. § 7500 Biscayne Was purchased by its current oWners in 1996 as a vacant lot, but in the decades prior Was fully functioning as the Aloha Motel, described online by, “Private Pool, Free TV in rooms, Air Conditioned and Heated.

The purpose of the project is to increase transit options for travel in southeast Florida, support the Eastward Ho! Initiative of the counties in the region, encourage redevelopment and economic growth in the coastal cities, and supplement the existing highway network. These goals were developed in cooperation with the counties, cities, metropolitan planning organizations, regional planning organizations, civic and business organizations, and the general public. The study has proceeded in two phases. The first phase led to the development of modally generic alternatives that were refined into four, specific modal alternatives in Phase 2, which is the subject of this report. These four alternatives: TSM, BRT, Integrated Rail “DMU”, and Integrated Rail “Push- Pull,” were defined and compared against both a No Build alternative and against each other. Each of these alternatives incorporates new transit service along the Florida East Coast Railway (FEC) cor- ridor with existing transit service operated by each of the three counties in the region (Palm Beach, Broward, and Miami-Dade) and Tri-Rail.
