Description
Lifeguard stands act as important landmarks and gathering points on beaches everywhere. Along Miami Beach near the Art Deco District lifeguard stands not only play the usual role of comfort and safety, but have become visual icons.
After Hurricane Andrew, architects donated their designs to the city sprucing up the lifeguard stations which then became popular symbols of the revived City of Miami Beach. The eclectic designs range from 60's funky to bold & colorful. Of all the 29 stands, 16 occupy the South Beach portion of the sand.
This blue and orange lifeguard tower overlooks the beach which if you look closely you can see a parasailer and a sailboat off in the distance.
