Miami history
Driving down the 395 from Miami Beach, one can only gaze in wonder
at the downtown skyline set against the tropical waters and blue
skies. It's amazing to think that not long ago, swampland
vegetation and mosquitoes dominated the area. In a short period of
time, the city has emerged as a major cosmopolitan center for
international business, tourism, fashion and nightlife.
