Daily... and since 2013... Weekly (hopefully) photos of Miami, Florida, USA. However, be amply warned!!! Sometimes, I tell the truth, other times, I may not. Sometimes, I am joking, other times, I may be serious. It may be hard for you to tell... So if I offend you, I am joking or not telling you the truth. But my photos are all real because I do not doctor them.

Dadeland
This is the intersection of Kendall Drive (SW 88th street) and Dadeland Blvd. in South Miami. Except the Marriott hotel to the extreme left, all the high rise and the building on the right are new. The big one rising with the crane is the TownCenter One under construction. You may find it interesting to know that 8.8 million tourists annually spend $7.4 billion in the Dadeland area. 42% of all Dadeland sales are to tourists of which 61% are foreigners. Not our money!
I know this area quite well and am constantly amazed at how fast buildings go up! It's almost as if the real estate crash isn't affecting South Miami at all.
