Flagler Street- Henry Flagler, along with John D. Rockefeller, created a vast empire and began to develop the East coast of Florida. Flagler built the railroad here and extended it to Miami at the urgin of Julia Tuttle.
Collins Avenue- In 1910, he and Carl Fisher purchased a Mangrove swamp which they turned into Miami Beach
