Everglades Hotel
The 16-storey hotel with a Giralda-style tower on Biscayne Boulevard was once Miami's largest, finished just before the 1926 hurricane flooded its lobby; WTVJ's first transmitter sat on its roof in 1949. It was demolished on 23 January 2005. On the site now: The Vizcayne towers (first named Everglades on the Bay) on Biscayne Boulevard.
