History Talks | Miami’s Boom Era Communities—Miami Shores

Once advertised as “America’s Mediterranean,” Miami Shores is home to architectural gems that speak to the area’s boom period construction. Learn about the Shoreland Company’s vision for this village on the bay as an Italian-inspired development.

Dr. George will be joined in conversation by community member and Brockway Memorial Library archivist John Bachay, who will share his insights into the community of Miami Shores.
