The McAlpin

With its wonderfully symmetrical design, eye-catching Miami pastel colors of pink and turquoise, and the charming face formed in the middle of the building by three windows and the separating lines, the McAlpin is one of the greatest examples of Art Deco architecture in Miami. Lawrence Murray Dixon, one of the great minds in the art deco movement who left behind numerous other structures in South Beach, constructed it in 1940. Today, The McAlpin is a famous selfie location in the art deco neighborhood. The property is now owned by Hilton and may be reserved for your ideal Miami Beach visit.

The historic McAlpin (now part of Hilton Grand Vacation Club) is one of South Beach's most well-known and photographed structures. It is unquestionably one of the outstanding specimens of Miami's Art Deco style. The façade is symmetrical, with lines running the length and width of the structure. Take note of the rule of three in both the vertical and horizontal brow lines. The McAlpin features a lovely pastel color scheme of pink and turquoise, as well as beautifully designed signage.

Immerse yourself in the seaside playground of South Beach by staying at McAlpin Ocean Plaza, a Hilton Grand Vacations Club, home to casual glamour, Art Deco architecture, and palm-tree-lined beachfront access. With a sought-after Ocean Drive address in the trendy Art Deco District, this historically registered Miami Beach timeshare makes it easy to see and be seen just steps from the area’s most popular bistros, boutiques, and nightlife. Each sophisticated suite comes with a private kitchen to help you feel at home in South Florida’s most stylish city.
