The "Doc" Thomas House is a national historic site located at 5530 Sunset Dr., just east of South Miami, Florida in Miami-Dade County. Completed in 1932, it was the residence of Arden Hayes Thomas, who had moved to Dade County from Indiana to open a drug store in the 1920s.[2]
Thomas deeded the house and almost 2.2 acres of wooded property to Tropical Audubon Society in 1974. After his death on December 31, 1975, Tropical Audubon Society acquired the property; it has served as the organization's headquarters and a community resource since April, 1976. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places on June 13, 2014.[1]
