Auburn skies paint the backdrop of an aerial view of Miami Beach, Florida, circa 1940. In the foreground, the Million Dollar Pier, a grand architectural marvel of the era, stretches out into the turquoise waters of the Atlantic Ocean. The pier, adorned with an intricate design of white pillars and a curved roof, stands as a beacon of luxury and leisure. To the left, the dog track, a popular attraction for sports enthusiasts, is nestled amongst the sandy shores. Greyhounds, the canine athletes of the time, are seen in the track's infield, their ears pricked and eyes focused intently on their handlers. The track's oval shape is clearly visible, with the starting gates and grandstands forming a semi-circle around the racetrack. The coastline is dotted with a multitude of buildings, their grey silhouettes contrasting against the golden sands and the deep blue sea. The Million Dollar Pier and the dog track, two iconic symbols of Miami's rich history, stand as a testament to the city's vibrant past. The Million Dollar Pier, originally built in 1923, was a popular destination for tourists and locals alike. It featured a dance hall, a roller rink, a casino, and various shops and restaurants. The pier was destroyed during a hurricane in 1944 and was later rebuilt in 2003. The dog track, on the other hand, was in operation from the 1920s until 1985. It was a hub for greyhound racing, attracting thousands of spectators every week. The track was demolished in the late 1980s to make way for a new development, but the memory of the roaring crowds and the thrill of the races lives on. This aerial view offers a unique perspective of Miami Beach's history, showcasing the city's evolution from a popular vacation spot to a bustling metropolis. The Million Dollar Pier and the dog track, two distinct elements of Miami's past, stand together in this photograph, a reminder of the city's rich history and its enduring allure.
