* Lincoln Road

After dark, along the Lincoln Road Mall in Miami Beach, there’s plenty to occupy your gaze at ground level. Vibrant storefronts, fountains and alfresco dining attract a pageant of short skirts, tight tees and leashed lap dogs.
But a glowing structure rising skyward in a concrete exclamation point at one end of the promenade lures your eyes up, away from the ground-level spectacle. At the top, people circulate above it all. Actually, they’re above a parking garage, albeit one with an impressive architectural pedigree and a rock-star name — 1111 — to match.
It’s 1111 Lincoln Road, and if sexy cars are worshiped in South Beach, this is their cathedral.
