The Flamingo South Beach apartments as seen from the Biscayne Bay seawall, 7 July 2003

The Flamingo Hotel overlooked Biscayne Bay on the west side of the newly formed city of Miami Beach, Florida, until the 1950s, when it was torn down to make room for the new Morton Towers development,[1] which is now known as the Flamingo South Beach.
