The 1926 Miami hurricane wrecked the area's earlier boom-era construction, and Depression-era rebuilding produced the small-scale stucco hotels and rooming houses that became the Art Deco district. ## What Miami Beach does to a home appliance. Most of the Art Deco hotels on Ocean Drive, including the Colony and the Cardozo, went up between 1935 and 1941, right before World War II halted construction. The Fontainebleau's 1954 opening marked a shift toward much larger buildings, a trend that continued into the 2000s with high-rise condo towers like Continuum and ICON. The city describes itself as extraordinarily vulnerable to hurricanes and tropical storms, having taken direct hits multiple times since the 1920s.
