Thee Image Club was a music venue located at 18330 Collins Avenue in Miami Beach, Florida. Owned and operated by Marshall Brevetz, the club opened in 1968. Initially called Thee Experience before it moved to a site which had been previously occupied by a 32 lane bowling alley known as the Sunny Isles Bowling Center. The club consisted of a big open ballroom floor with three stages, a meditation room, and black lights. Several famous rock bands and musicians performed at the club in the late 1960s, including The Grateful Dead, The Mothers of Invention, NRBQ, Led Zeppelin, Fantasy, The Jeff Beck Group, The Doors, Canned Heat, Blues Image and Steppenwolf. Tiny Tim also performed there at the height of his popularity. The building was only in operation as a music club for a few years before being closed and demolished. The site is now occupied by Publix Supermarket.

Hotel Deauville (Miami)

The Deauville Beach Resort at 6701 Collins Ave, Miami Beach, FL 33141, was a celebrated beachfront hotel on Miami Beach. Built in the MiMo style in 1957, it was designed by Melvin Grossman.The Beatles played their second Ed Sullivan Show appearance at the hotel on February 16, 1964.Alex Meruelo is the de facto owner of the historical hotel. Following an electrical fire that closed the hotel in 2017, Meruelo has been embroiled in a public controversy, being accused of deliberately allowing the building to fall into disrepair so it could be demolished for development. A limited liability company associated with him has been fined multiple times by the City of Miami Beach for such violations. In early 2022, the LLC filed papers for demolition. Local activists and preservationists unsuccessfully petitioned to try to save the hotel from destruction.The Deauville Beach Resort's 17-story hotel tower was imploded on Sunday, November 13, 2022. Apparently the Napoleon Ballroom, where The Beatles had played is the last part of the hotel remaining and is soon to be demolished.It is currently unknown what will be replacing the hotel. The owner of the Miami Dolphins, Stephen M. Ross, had plans to purchase the property and build two towers on the site, one hotel and one luxury condominium. But due to the planned towers exceeding current city height codes, the proposal placed on the November 8, 2022 ballot, was voted against by residents.
