Juxtaposition-Old Sears tower/Adrienne Arsht Center

This is the old Sears, Roebuck and Company Department Store built in the late1920's in the art deco style. It's kind of difficult to see in the picture but the upper part of the tower displays the deco motifs.Recently when they built the performing arts center most of what made up the department store building was demolished, but the tower was preserved as a historical landmark. and incorporated into the design. It's nice to see that in a city where the landscape changes rapidly because of new development that a piece of the old was preserved. I remember going shopping there as a kid in the 1970's.
