MIAMI (CBSMiami) – Just hours before early voting started in South Florida, the nation's largest electronic flag and gigantic L.E.D. VOTE button lit up over the Miami skyline.

The patriotic reminder, being called a beacon of patriotism and democracy, is located on the new Paramount Worldcenter Tower in downtown Miami.

Through the center of the 60-story Paramount is a 700-foot-tall vertical stream of fluttering red and white L.E.D. stripes combined with the words, "VOTE FLA."
