Description
Author, Historian and former CEO Richard Rene Silvin will be discussing the flamboyant, socialite architect of the roaring 1920s who created the Palm Beach look, known as Mediterranean Revival, which has evolved into a style emulated all over South Florida. After Mizner’s success in Palm Beach, he created the model city of Boca Raton in 1925 in the Venetian style. Sadly the Mizner Development Corporation went bankrupt, and he died penniless several years later.
