a. For Depression-era Miami, construction of the five-story, $1.5 million Walgreen Drug Store was viewed as a vote of confidence for the city's future. The innovative building's Streamline Moderne design accommodated Miami's climate and the building's site through the use of horizontal bands of ribbon windows and a curved corner entrance. Promoted as the largest store in the Walgreen chain, the building featured an 88-foot soda fountain counter and a separate ice cream plant. The building was recently rehabilitated by The Sports Authority and was listed in the National Register of Historic Places in 1989.
