Deauville Implosion

Read Time: < 1 min

Today we lost the North Beach landmark Deauville Hotel due to demolition by neglect. We captured this footage of the implosion and ensuing demolition cloud. An important part of our cultural, social, and economic history gone in seconds. Clean up of the demolition site is expected to take 10 weeks, according to a report from Channel 10.

What would Miami Beach be like without Historic Art Deco, Mediterranean, and MiMo buildings?
