Run by the Miami Design Preservation League, the center provides information about the buildings in the district. A gift shop sells 1930s-1950s Art Deco memorabilia, posters, and books on Miami's history. Several tours—covering Lincoln Road, Española Way, North Beach, and the entire Art Deco district, among others—start here. You can rent audiotapes for a self-guided tour, join one of the regular morning (Wednesday and Friday through Sunday) or Thursday-evening walking tours, or take a bicycle tour. All of the options provide detailed histories of the Art Deco hotels. Don't miss the special boat tours during Art Deco Weekend, in early January.
