Built circa 1903, this house in Miami's Upper East Side is a whopping 116 years old. By Miami standards, that's practically ancient.

The brokerbabble also claims the house is on "Miami's oldest intact turn-of-the-century street," which is rather debatable.

In Miami, townhouses used to be considered a little, well, bleh. Why have a narrow, skinny thing, when you can spread out with a big, circular driveway, and a lagoon style pool? Well, things change, and there are a lot of very nice townhouses around Miami, like this fabulous, three-story number that feels straight out of... London. It has four bedrooms, five baths, and a roomy 3,781 square feet. Oh, and it's on the end of a block of new equally new townhouses, so you've got views in three directions. Naff? Nahhhh. This joint's classy.
Spaghetti western star Francisco Martinez-Celeiro, also known as George Martin, has gotten his way. One of Miami-based firm Arquitectonica’s first buildings, the Babylon, built in 1982, is being demolished by Mr. Celeiro, its longtime owner. The Biscayne Times says demolition is expected to be completed by July, but just walk past it, and the Babylon, once an icon of postmodernist architecture in Miami, is already a sad sight.
Built in 1954, this split-level mid-century ranch house has been redone while preserving some of the 1950s flair that made it unique.
