Southeast France has St. Tropez…Northwest Italy has La
Spezia…and South Florida has Sunny Isles Beach, internationally known as
"Florida's Riviera."
In 1920 a private investor purchased a 2.26-square-mile tract of land for development as a tourist resort. He named it Sunny Isles
-- "The Venice of America."When the Haulover bridge was completed in 1925, the area became accessible from Miami Beach, attracting developers who widened streams, dug canals and inlets, and created islands and peninsulas for building waterfront properties on Biscayne Bay.
In 1936 the Sunny Isles Pier was built and soon became a popular destination. In 1982 the ½- mile-long pier was designated a historic site.
Sunny Isles developed slowly until the 1950s, when the first single-family homes were built in the Golden Shores area. During the 1950s and 1960, more than 30 motels sprang up along Collins Avenue, including Ocean Palm, the first two-story motel in the U.S. Tourists came from all over to vacation in themed motels of exotic design along "Motel Row."
The popular oceanfront community gained many new
residents (both year-round and seasonal) as condominium communities such as
Winston Towers, and Arlen House were built in the 1970s.
New mid-and high-rise multi-family buildings were
constructed, adding to the residential options in Sunny Isles. The City's three
single-family communities:
In 1997, the citizens of this area voted to incorporate
as a municipality. As a result, sunny Isles Beach is now "Florida's Rivera" with
mostly luxury high-rise condominiums, elegant hotels, and Multi-Million Dollars
Oceanfront Homes.
Today, Sunny
Isles Beach has an increasing demand from foreign buyers. They like the beach,
prestige, and safety that the City provides to every resident.
