Tourists pose for photos outside of Casa Casuarina, the former home of Italian fashion designer Gianni Versace in Miami Beach. Before the designer’s death more than a decade ago, his celebrity friends stayed so often, rooms were outfitted with them in mind. But, slowly, 1116 Ocean Drive has opened its doors to the masses, or at least anyone willing to plunk down $65 for a tour.
