Not to mention some of the best mid century modernist housing stock in the state.

True dat.  I wonder how long before they are torn down and replaced with faux-Mediterranean pallazzos like they've done is South Florida.

So glad I met and engaged with Willie Mick, Arlington "Pioneer" developer.

When my family bailed out of Miami in the late 70's we roosted at Clay County,Black Creek waterfront-an Arlington core habitat may have proven fruitful,but for some reason,way off 'the radar' back then.
