McAlpin
Window “eyebrows,” porthole windows and a perfect adherence to the “rule of three.” If this is the baseline of Miami’s art deco style, then the McAlpin is a perfect study. It was designed in 1940 by Lawrence Dixon, one of Miami Beach’s most important and productive architects, and received its poppy pink and turquoise paint trimmings as a result of the district’s great preservation push in the ’80s. Today, the McAlpin is a Hilton Grand Vacation Club, where guests can enjoy a stay in the middle of all the Ocean Drive action just footsteps from the sand.
