| Venetian Pool Miami |
| Description: |
Formed from a coral rock quarry in 1923, Venetian Pool is included in the National Register of Historic Places.
This 820,000 gallon pool is fed with cool spring water daily, and features two waterfalls, coral caves and grottos. The buildings are Venetian-style architecture, designed by Denman Fink, uncle of the founding father of Coral Gables, George Merrick.
Together with architect Phineas Paist, they transformed an unsightly rock pit into the world's most beautiful swimming hole, ***plete with expansive loggias, porticos, a palm-fringed island, beach and cobble-stone bridge.
The pool received a major historic restoration in 1989. |
