The Art Deco District is the largest collection of Art Deco architecture in the world and comprises hundreds of hotels, apartments and other structures erected between 1923 and 1943. Mediterranean, Streamline Moderne and Art Deco are all represented in the District. The Historic District is bounded by the Atlantic Ocean on the East, Lenox Court on the West, 6th Street on the South and Dade Boulevard along the Collins Canal to the North. The movement to preserve the Art Deco District's architectural heritage was led by former interior designer Barbara Capitman, who now has a street in the District named in her honor.
South Beach (also known as SoBe, or simply The Beach the area from 1st street to about 25th street) is one of the more popular areas of Miami Beach. Topless sunbathing is tolerated on certain designated areas of the beach. Before the TV show Miami Vice helped make the area popular, SoBe was under urban blight, with vacant buildings and a high crime rate. Today, it is considered one of the richest commercial areas on the beach, yet poverty and crime still remain in some places near the area.

Biscayne Bay (Bahía Vizcaína, in Spanish) is a lagoon that is approximately 35 miles long and up to 8 miles wide located on the Atlantic coast of south Florida. It is usually divided for purposes of discussion and analysis into three parts, North Bay, Central Bay and South Bay.
North
Bay separates Miami Beach on its barrier island from Miami on the mainland. It
has been severely affected over the last century by raw sewage releases, urban
runoff, shoreline bulkheading, dredging, the creation of artificial islands and
the loss of natural fresh water flow into the bay. North Bay accounts for only
10% of the water area of the bay. Central Bay is the largest part of the bay.
It is separated from the Atlantic Ocean by the Safety Valve, a series of shallow
flats separated by tidal flow channels, stretching from the south end of Key Biscayne
to the Ragged Keys at the north end of the Florida Keys. It has been adversely
affected primarily by bulkheading, urban runoff discharged by canals, and the
loss of natural fresh water flow.
Miami
Vice is an American television series produced by Michael Mann for NBC. The show
