South Beach started as farm land. In 1870, Henry and Charles Lum purchased 165
acres (668,000 m²) for coconut farming. Charles Lum built the first house on the
beach in 1886. In 1894 the Lum brothers left the island, leaving control of the
plantation to John Collins, who came to South Beach two years later to survey
his land. He used the land for farming purposes, discovering fresh water and
extending his parcel from 14th Street to 67th in 1907. In 1912, Miami
Businessmen the Lummus Brothers acquired 400 acres (1.6 km²) of Collins, in an
effort build an ocean front city of modest single family residence.Carl G.
Fisher, a successful entrepreneur who made millions in 1909 after selling a
business to Union Carbide, came to the beach in 1913. His vision was to
establish South Beach as a successful city independent of Miami. This was the
same year that the famous restaurant Joe's Stone Crab opened. On March 26, 1915,
Collins, Lummus, and Fisher consolidated their efforts and incorporated the Town
of Miami Beach. In 1918 the Mac Arthur Causeway was completed. The Lummus
brothers sold their oceanfront property to the city from 6th Street to 14th,
which was then and is now the area known as Lummus Park.
