Marking the Millennium

Marking the Millennium: 21st Century Miami Architecture

Coral Gables Museum, Miami, Florida | 2014

In Miami, the turn of the millennium was marked by a construction boom like none before. The skyline filled with tower cranes, their gawky angular forms spelling out a message that was at once promising and disturbing – growth and change, whether for the better or the worse.

Building by building, a new Miami was emerging. We have witnessed a rebirth of sorts with new civic, cultural, educational and commercial buildings that would define public life for this century and beyond with architecture that was both imported and home-grown. Cities are defined by architecture, and Miami is no exception.

- Beth Dunlop, Curator
