These were built in 1962. It’s called the Portifino. The Belle Plaza Condos in Miami Beach were also built in 1962. https://kafka-franz.com/belle-plaza-condo-venetian-islands.htm#!for-sale Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Posted March 1, 2022 Report Share Posted March 1, 2022 (edited) DYKSTRA MEETS MAC GREGOR, TOMMY´s BOATYARD, 31 SE 5TH STREET Tommy´s boatyard was an institution in Miami for over 50 years at the same address. This long gone boatyard was first used in Lend me an ear, then in Contempt of Court (Rivers´place) and in Freefall (Switek´s booby trap for Montoya´s men). all three times we see the same doors with the Miami River in the background and the same x-shaped wooden door pattern.5 The old pic below is from 1929 with the NE 2 Ave bridge in the background, which is the same view we see in Lend me an ear 58 years later.

Tom Posted May 16, 2022 Report Share Posted May 16, 2022 (edited) view from Miami Ave bridge westwards. On the lower left of the current picture is the spot where Big Fish restaurant was located and razed a few years ago. The background has changed dramatically. No highrises anywhere in 1987, lots of them now. Edited May 16, 2022 by Tom 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
