History
Designed by famed architect Robert Swartburg, the Delano was built in 1947 by Rob and Rose Schwartz. The hotel was originally utilized for military housing and more. The then four-winged Art Deco tower of the Delano was the tallest building in Miami, dwarfing the Miami News & Metropolis (Freedom Tower) built in 1925 in downtown Miami and rising majestically above the sand and surf of Miami Beach. The 1994 renovations were designed by Philippe Starck. [3] The hotel is named after Franklin D. Roosevelt the 32nd President of the United States of America.
