    Oh, I love how it comes alive at night!! I also like how well maintained it is and how simple the original design was.

    The vertical fin and neon lighting were two of the elements that made Palmer House (and other Miami hotelss) so distinctly Deco. Love it!

    Students will be looking for examples of Deco architecture this semester, so I have given everyone your blog address. Thanks.

      Thanks Helen. I love the visitor spike when your students are let loose. :-)

    Yes the sign is marvellous, I've been stunned by neon ever since being shown the Skipping Girl as a toddler.
