SIGNIFICANCE k cJ,,iYt • Statement -of Significance: 4° �.m The Morningside Historic District is significant to the history of architecture, landscape architecture, and community development in Miami..,° Developed primarily between 1922 and 19411, Morningsido contains a wealth of Mediterranean Revival, Art Deco and vernacular style houses that reflect the diversity and direction of architectural design: during -the 1920' s • and 1930' s. Morni ngsi de is one of- Mi aMV.3 best -planned subdi-visions, featuring wide, tree -lined boulevards that "g contribute to the character of the area. This neighborhood' was ;- envisioned as an exclusive, residential community, and its amenities and .1 ocation on Biscayne Say attracted many influential and prominent local residents. One -of Miami's most intact historic neighborhoods, _ Morningside is the City's best remaining example of a boom -era suburbs As Miami's population expanded during the late 19I0's and early 4920'.s, new subdivisions' reached northward along Siscayne Bey, In 1922,.- a.. large, undeveloped, bayfront tract near the northern1,City 4mi is was pl atted. Cal 1 ed Bay Shore, thi s area was subdi vi ded by, the Bay Shore Investment Company and was the first of three phases that 4. would.be developed by the company between 1922 and 1924. James H. Nunnally, 'president of the Say Shore Investment--otlpany envisioned :Bay-.::Shore.'as•.an.-:exclusive residential community and plan hed ,for,..:every .modern convenience. Before the first lot was offered ior: sale, the subdivision was fully developed: streets, which bore such °names 'An }the communty's infant years as Toxaway, Hibiscus, Cocoanut. ;and Al'bermarle, were paved and curbed; parkways. were curbed attd pl:anted wi,tk T'trees:.and fol i age; trees,- foliage , 'shru< and grasp. ; were r:planted between: sidewalks. and .curbs; and street lighting°'►as iii underground conduits.

Duplexes, apart nts, and hotels were prohibited, as were ho!tses constructed of.- wood. Building setbacks and lot frontage were also regulated, and the developer required that all plans be submitted for approval prior to construction.' Although Bay Shore developed steadily during the boom and even the Depression, the area witnessed its greatest buildingr,expansion,.between 19.3 and 1941. In 1926 the neighborhood was expanded, and a small area south of Bay Shore, along N.E. 55 Street and N.E. 55 terrace, was subdivided as '"Bayshore Plaza by Islands Incorporated. Although the houses were often- smaller than those in the earlier subdivision, similar deed restrictions guaranteed a continued high level of. development. Houses constructed in the Morningside Historic District reflect the eclecticism popular i n the early twentieth century.

Encompassing an arei•of approximately 100 acres, the district includes 235 buildings, most of , which are detacheds single-family houses. A wide variety ,,- architectural styles is represented here, -including Mediterranean Revival, Mission, Art Deco, and vernacular. Morningside is also.:noted for -its wide, tree -lined boulevards and its plentiful, flowering trees and leas,'i foliage. The Morningside Historic District is comprised of three subdivisions that were platted between 1922 and 1924 and a later subdivision, ' platted in 1936. The earlier subdivisions were laid out with irregular lot lines and streets running in a diagonal direction to assure each homesite a view of the Bay and the full effect of its cooling breezes. Inland lots are generally 60 feet wide, with larger estates along Biscayne Bay. A majority of houses in the district were constructed between 1922 and 1941, the area's major period of significance. Approximately 45 houses were built during the boom era (1922-1926). while 33 were constructed during the bust and Depression (1927-1935). The greatest period of activity occurred before World War II, with 77 houses built _ between 1936 and 1941. Construction came to a virtual halt during the war years, with only two houses built, but resumed in 1946. Sincey 1946, 78 buildings have been erected. A majority of post-1941 buildings are small, single-family residences °5 that respect the architectural character of the district. Major intrusions are generally restricted to commercial buildings on, Biscayne Boulevard and include several motels, a large office :__ building, apartments, and condominiums. Some historic bui l di ngs Biscayne Boulevard have been adapted to commercial use: ' Archi tectural ly, the Morningside Historic District reflects the diverse styles of the early twentieth century. Mediterranean Revival: style buildings predominate and are generally two stories in hei qbt '.y,.. These buildings feature round arched windows, cornice mol dings, decorative tiles, wrought iron work, and the ubiquitous Mi ssi an : ti l Q roof. Although Mediterranean Revival style houses continued to be built :in the 1920's and 1930's, the Art Deco style increased.. in' popu1 ' ' star during the late 1930's. Characterized by a 1inear-- or an;�uaar composition,, these buildings feature stylized decorai oniraund ; windows and doors, a prominent entryway, and glass block. Masonry vernacular style houses were built throughout t development. while some vernacular houses are virtually s.trPP *d 01 '` v� ornamentation, others feature a combination of styl es. , that.,! ..¢, - classification, rr� '! s `4J .a bm t `''�'••- its' b�-'£- + ,r - , , r` sr=?'
