Field Trip: Inside the Miami Herald


I've been doing a bit of writing for Miami.com  (and consequently The Miami Herald). An interview with Wilmer Valderrama needing to be played and transcribed from a special set of Mini tapes necessitated a trip to the iconic Miami Herald building on the Biscayne Bay. It was built in 1960 and is every inch mid-century modern. Unfortunately the land was sold to Genting last year, a Malaysian resort developer who planned to put a mega-casino there until the gambling bill was shot down in the state's capital. Gambling may be a no-go for now, but the Herald will move next year to new digs in Doral. So I decided to shoot some "film" of the building, including the colorful printing presses. BTW - get on online subscription of the complete newspaper here!
