James Deering's Vizcaya. Iâm just back from a winter break in south Florida, and I visited the Vizcaya mansion on the shores of Miamiâs Biscayne Bay last Sunday. Vizcaya was built over a span of two years, 1914-1916, by James Deering (1859-1925), co-founder and vice president of International Harvester.
During the construction, ten percent of Miamiâs population worked at the Vizcaya site. The original 180 acres included a working farm, machine shop, staff residences, garages, greenhouse, and a paint and carpentry workshop. Portrait inscribed: to Mr James Deering from his friend John S. Sargent *, Miami 1917.
