In Florida, George visits NASA's Vehicle Assembly Building at the Kennedy Space Center, and discovers how storms have created the opportunity to build over eight hundred Art Deco buildings in Miami.
In New Jersey and Connecticut, George checks out the neon signs and doo-wop-inspired diners at Wildwood, and a broken-down zoo that's been returned to life as a quirky hotel.
