of the Einstein Tower in Potsdam, Germany, completed in 1924. The tower’s swooping curves and asymmetrical design were a clear influence on Dixon’s work in Miami Beach.
As Miami Beach continues to evolve and grow, it’s important to remember the architects like Lawrence Murray Dixon who shaped the city’s iconic art deco style. Their buildings are not just structures, but symbols of a bygone era of glamour and sophistication. The restoration of The Raleigh and other Dixon-designed buildings is a testament to the enduring legacy of these visionary architects, and a reminder of the importance of preserving Miami’s architectural history for future generations to enjoy.
