We've been fans of great come backs of our city and are addicted to renderings of proposed projects that in one way or another enhance the Magic City. With that said, the late Tony Goldman was one of those visionaries that had those renderings in his head and made it happened as he did on Miami Beach and Wynwood.
Those days of fabulous concerts, boat races, and 4th of July celebrations will return soon to the Miami Marine Stadium, as it keeps jumping important hurdles of bureaucracy, fundraising and goals. In the end, The Friends of Miami Marine Stadium and the public will have another piece of saved history to be enjoyed by all.
Please support the fundraising efforts of the Friends of Miami Marine Stadium.
Check out some proposed renderings below:
The venue hosted concerts with the Boston Pops, Queen, The Beach Boys, Ray Charles, and Jimmy Buffett.
The new ideas is to showcase the architecture with lighting, add a spectacular entrance and parking for the 6,566 seat stadium that was designed by the original architect Hilario Candela.
To the west of the stadium, a proposed "commercialspace/Maritime Center" which will help support the operations of the Stadium.
To the east of the Marine stadium a proposed water element and green space could be implemented. Many other ideas have been floating around like adding a restaurant and a contest driven street art wall.
No one could of said better than Tony Goldman. See the video when he toured the run down stadium in November 2009.
