Biographical/Historical:     The Royal Palm Hotel of Miami, Florida, was one of the largest tourist attractions along Flagler's East Coast Railway in the late 1890, and one of the first hotels in the Miami area. The hotel opened in 1897 as a shining example of the lavish opulence that Henry Flagler's hotels offered. However, the 1926 hurricane severely damaged the Royal Palm, and it was eventually condemned and torn down in 1930.

Summary:     This collection consists of 15 photographs that depict various areas of the Royal Palm Hotel in Miami, Florida. The images depict the hotel, its grounds, golf course, yachts, and tourists. There are also a few images of the Steamboat "City of Key West" in front of the hotel.
