This Day (An America 250 History Show) The Mother Of Miami (1896)
It's July 28th. This day in 1896, residents vote to incorporate the city of Miami, Florida.
Jody, Niki, and Kellie discuss how the birth of Miami was in large part due to a woman named Julia Tuttle and the arrival of the railroad to the Florida "frontier."
