Web. 16 Nov. 2010.\n\nSince the 1970s, the Miami Design Preservation League has been working to preserve the many Art Deco buildings in South Beach. The efforts were successful and South Beach is now a historical district. It was both interesting and informative to read that pieces of Art Deco are now considered historical and are being protected. The article mentions that some buildings have begun to deteriorate with age. Examples of historical pieces of Art Deco are included with many photographs.
