		</div><p>A once luxurious Miami Beach hotel that hosted The Beatles and president John F Kennedy during its 1960s heyday was imploded on Sunday after falling into disrepair and abandonment over recent years.</p>
<p>The 17-storey Deauville Hotel fell into itself after a series of explosions were set off, sending up a large cloud of dust.</p>
<p>The hotel was built in 1957 and The Beatles performed there in 1964, recording six songs for The Ed Sullivan Show, drawing an estimated television audience of 70 million people.</p>
<p>Mr Kennedy spoke to the Young Democrats Convention at the hotel in 1961, and celebrities including Frank Sinatra, Tom Jones and Sammy Davis Jr performed there.</p>
<p>The property fell into disrepair over the years and was closed in 2017 after an electrical fire.</p>
<p>Miami Beach officials and the family who owned the hotel sparred over millions of dollars in fines for various code violations.</p>
<p>It is unclear what will now happen to the lot now.</p>
<p>Miami Dolphins owner Stephen Ross, a billionaire New York developer, wanted to buy the property and build a 350-foot-tall (107-metre-tall) hotel and condo tower, but that plan is in limbo.</p>
<p>The area has a 200ft (61m) height limit and a city ballot measure that would have allowed the construction failed on Tuesday.</p>
<p>City officials say Mr Ross may still be interested in purchasing the lot if an alternate plan can be worked out.</p>
