Built by CURTISS-BRIGHT COMPANY in 1925, this modified Pueblo Revival style building housed the office of civil engineer DANIEL CLUNE, who platted COUNTRY CLUB ESTATES, as well as Hialeah and Opa-Locka. In 1946, pharmacist JOHN STADNIK opened Miami Springs' first pharmacy here, which still remains Miami Springs Pharmacy and pharmacy museum. Miami Springs Historical Museum occupies the second floor in space donated by owner Stadnik. This is the only building left of the original "Civic Center", a group of buildings near the Circle which included the Curtiss-Bright Company Administration Building, First State Bank of Hialeah and a Pueblo style bandstand inside the Circle where renowned bandmaster, ARTHUR PRYOR conducted concerts. Placed on the NATIONAL REGISTER OF HISTORIC PLACES in 1985 (U.S. Department of Interior). DESIGNATED MIAMI SPRINGS HISTORIC SITE IN 1989. |
