South Beach Street Historic District, Historic district in Daytona Beach, Florida.
The South Beach Street Historic District is a historic area in Daytona Beach with numerous buildings between Volusia Avenue and South Street. Most structures date from the 1920s and together form the character of a large neighborhood with mixed commercial and residential use.
This area took shape in the 1920s during Florida's land boom when investors built new streets and structures. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1988, gaining formal protection for its heritage.
The Mediterranean Revival and Art Deco buildings show the tastes of wealthy seasonal residents from Florida's land boom era. These structures still shape the look of the streets and invite visitors to explore.
The area is best explored on foot to see the architectural details of individual buildings and walk through the streets at your own pace. Guided tours are available to learn more about the structures and their significance.
The area borders the Halifax River and brings together shops, residences, and the Hotel Del Mar within one historic zone. This mix of different uses is uncommon, as many historic districts focus on a single purpose.
