MIAMI DESIGN PRESERVATION LEAGUE
Founded in 1976, The Miami Design Preservation League is the oldest Art Deco preservation society in the world.
Before the models, hoteliers, club owners, restaurateurs, Europeans and others flocked to South Beach, some ill-advised planners and developers wanted to wipe out the gem that is the Art Deco District.
The MDPL came to the rescue and continues to battle to preserve art deco gems to this day. Its Art Deco weekend in January is the perfect time for the rest of the frozen world to jet into Miami Beach to enjoy the timeless modern design and human-scaled, walkable district.
