Personal Statement:
I live in an emerging historic district in Miami Beach (North Bay Road) in a contributing historic structure,
located at 6001 North Bay Road. My house was designed in 1951 by the world-renowned architect,
Norman Giller. It is a fine example of Mid-century modem architecture, and one of Gilier's best smaller
houses. Living in this house is a privilege that I looked forward to before moving here from Vtfashington,
