This
is US 1 NB just north of the southern terminus of I-95. In these
parts, US 1 is called Brickell Ave. |
Here's
Miami Avenue crossing US 1. |
See,
Miami Ave. |
Northbound
reassurance shield on Brickell. |
Northbound
again on the tree-lined boulevard. |
You
can see the building ahead from my dorm window at UM. Right downtown,
the speed limit is a surprising 40 m.p.h. |
The
trees are still stripped from Hurricane Wilma in October. |
The
windows are still blown out on many buildings, as well. |
Ahead
is the Espirito Santo Plaza, my favorite building in Miami. As you can
see, its windows are blown out, too. |
The Espirito
Santo Plaza up close. |
NB
US 1 goes over a large drawbridge over the Miami River up ahead. |
And
here, NB US 1 takes a sharp right turn to go over to the Port of Miami. |
There
was a lot of congestion so I took a slight detour to this street, which may
or may not be 3rd Ave. |
Back
on US 1, which is now called Biscayne Blvd. The American Airlines
Arena, where the Heat play, is just ahead. |
The
Port of Miami. |
This
looked pretty so I took a picture of it. Eventually I'll get online
and look up what this building is. |
To
I-95 and FL 836 turn left. The 836 is the Dolphin Expy. and heads
directly to the airport. |
There's
old A1A, which I live off of in St. Augustine, 300 miles to the north. |
This
is on the north side of town still on US 1. Just after I took this pic,
I headed back to I-95 because it was so bad on US 1. At this point I'd
been in the car for about 1.5 hours. |
