North Miami Beach, Florida - Oldest Building in the Western Hemisphere We had to visit the oldest building in the western hemisphere. It was difficult to find since it was in the middle of apartments and commercial areas, so you would never think it was around there unless you were looking for it.
It was beautiful, quaint, and quiet. Originally this monastery was built in Spain in 1133-1141 and then brought to the US piece by piece and rebuilt in the 1950s. [Goldie, 06/19/2008]
