1500 Ocean Drive is often referred to as "The Michael Graves Building" because it is the only signature residential building in South Beach. Designed in 1993, The Michael Graves Building reflects the signature curvilinear design that has made his "brand" internationally renown. Soothing pastels and subtle ocean themes epitomize the South Beach lifestyle in a timeless design that will endure through the 21st century.
