Miniland USA (Florida)

Theme:	Various
[List of appearances]

Miniland USA is an area featured in LEGOLAND Florida. There, people are able to see famous landmarks made with LEGO bricks. The Miniland USA attraction is different from the identically-named attraction at LEGOLAND California, although many models featured at LEGOLAND Florida are copy builds of models appearing at other LEGOLAND parks.

Miniland USA is divided into several clusters representing different areas:^[1]

Daytona International Speedway
Kennedy Space Center
Florida
Pirate's Shores
California
New York
Washington DC
Las Vegas

Technically, the Las Vegas display spans two clusters (a walkway in the middle allows tourists to walk down the strip as they would in Nevada) and Daytona International Speedway shares its cluster with the Kennedy Space Center. Within each area, things are often grouped further (such as by city within Florida or California).

Star Wars Miniland is also represented at LEGOLAND Florida, but is not considered part of Miniland USA.

Locations[edit | edit source]

Daytona International Speedway / Kennedy Space Center cluster[edit | edit source]

Although some details have changed since installation in Florida, this cluster is a copy of the one from another LEGOLAND Park. This was originally called the "Florida cluster" when it debuted at LEGOLAND California, which no longer has a version of this display.

Daytona International Speedway[edit | edit source]

Kennedy Space Center[edit | edit source]

Florida cluster[edit | edit source]

This cluster is exclusive to LEGOLAND Florida and was primarily built at an off-site model shop near LEGOLAND California.

Wreck of a Spanish Galleon[edit | edit source]

St Augustine[edit | edit source]

Ybor City[edit | edit source]

Tampa[edit | edit source]

Key West[edit | edit source]

Little Havana[edit | edit source]

The exact locations of adjacent landmarks in Little Havana have been changed to allow easier viewing of a LEGO mosaic version of an iconic mural (which normally is obscured from easy viewing by Domino Park). In addition to a wrestling scene, the following landmarks are readily visible:

Tower Theatre
Domino Park
Little Havana To Go
Versailles

Downtown Miami[edit | edit source]

Six skyscrapers appear together to represent downtown Miami. Three of them are:

One Biscayne Tower
Southeast Financial Center
the Bacardi Building (2100 Biscayne Boulevard)

Miami Beach[edit | edit source]

Four of Miami Beach's iconic art deco style hotels are featured in this section of miniland Florida. All of them have different names in LEGO form. The buildings the models are based on are:

Crescent Resort (1420 Ocean Dr, Miami Beach, FL 33139)
Breakwater (940 Ocean Dr, Miami Beach, FL 33139)
Waldorf Towers (860 Ocean Dr, Miami Beach, FL 33139)
Colony Hotel (736 Ocean Dr, Miami Beach, FL 33139)

Other[edit | edit source]

A small section of this cluster seems to clump together landmarks that are not near each other geographically, such as Bok Tower and the Flagler Museum.

Pirate's Shores cluster[edit | edit source]

Near the restrooms and the walkway to the Land of Adventure, the Pirates miniland area is the only historic (and seemingly fictionalized) part of miniland USA.

California cluster[edit | edit source]

Although similar to the California cluster at LEGOLAND California, this cluster is much smaller and does not include as many buildings. Areas represented include Fisherman's Wharf, San Francisco, and the Hollywood Bowl.
