This National Historic Landmark, founded in 28 acres, is a lavish winter house of the 20th century industrialist James Deering. Built in 1916, this mansion features 34 rooms set around a central courtyard. It took more than 1,100 workers and craftsmen to complete the Biscay project, many of whom were brought from Europe to ensure authenticity in the design. The Italian Renaissance style villas are filled with impressive collections of European furniture and decorative arts from the 15th to the 19th centuries. The grounds and gardens contain an Italian fountain, French, swimming pool, and a beautiful sculpture. A breakwater at the bottom of the stairs leading to the Biscayne Bay is a ornately carved barge, featuring female figures. In Miami they have the house of Vizcaya which is the summer house of James Deering, an industrialist from Chicago.

Vizcaya's uniqueness lies in its subtropical location (very far from Newport) and in homage to Deering for its natural landscapes and the native South Florida wetland ecosystem. At a time when South Florida was deemed worthless, unfarmed swamp land, and the prevailing local preoccupation was a plan to drain and dry Everglades, Deering – the way conservationists in the future – opting for Preserving 25 hectares of primary growth forest ecosystems, including original hammocks in forests and mangrove forests, as well as the historic agricultural village of which is now being restored. The stunning landscape of Vizcaya is also home to many species of Floridian plants, including the Florida Butterfly Orchid, the endangered Brittle Maidenhair Fern and the Redberry Stopper.
