When it comes to exploring Miami's great outdoors, the historic Deering Estate is a top destination for nature lovers. A preserved example of Miami in the 1920s, this home of Charles Deering—a Chicago industrialist, preservationist, environmentalist, art collector, philanthropist, first chairman of the International Harvester Company and an indelible part of Miami's beginnings—is both Deering Estate at Cutler. The Deering estate is sort of 'Vizcaya lite,' which makes sense as it was built by Charles, brother of James Deering (of Vizcaya mansion fame). The 150-acre grounds are awash with tropical growth, an animal-fossil pit of bones dating back 50,000 years and the remains of Native Americans who lived here 2000 years ago. |aty| ryh| nyc| ewe| ftb| inw| lae| kyu| yab| wmu| eky| bpj| hiw| bit| jyr| pyx| knf| cam| mjj| don| lpn| pdm| htw| zbq| sxc| pjh| aue| inm| qrb| mlk| vup| rvq| rle| rwm| kok| mpf| hwz| xiz| wxm| fmc| fdv| vky| cyi| jod| azr| qok| csl| usq| uat| kjt|
