Regarding G. Carl Adams House. Excerpt from the property's National Register nomination:
31 Hunting Lodge Court was constructed as part of the Pueblo Revival development of Miami Springs Country Club Estates development. Built circa 1925, the building is the second largest residence in the development and served as the home of Carl G. Adams, half brother of Glenn Curtiss and Mayor of Country Club Estates from 1930 to 1942. Deeds and a March 1926 Country Club Estates promotional brochure displaying a photo of the home with the caption reading; "Palatial home of G. C. Adams, President of the Everglades Construction Corporation," indicate Mr. and Mrs. Carl Adams as owners. During his term as mayor, the name of Country Club Estates was changed to Miami Springs.
