2016 RBMS Preconference Site Proposal Miami/Coral Gables, Florida Summer 2016 – ALA in Orlando, Florida 2016 RBMS Preconference Site Proposal Miami/Coral Gables, Florida Summer 2016 – ALA in Orlando, Florida Miami is a city known for abundant sunshine, astonishing turquoise waters, and beautiful skies—as well as great cultural diversity, lush tropical vegetation, fascinating fauna, and world-class stature as an arts destination during the Art Basel fairs. Neighboring Coral Gables is known as “The City Beautiful,” and for good reason. The city was developed by George Edgar Merrick during the land boom years of the 1920s, and was envisioned as a sophisticated Mediterranean oasis in a paradisiacal setting. Although the two cities are adjacent, they—and the nearby city of Miami Beach—are very different in atmosphere, while also sharing the cultural diversity, eclecticism, and sophistication of one of the world’s most famous tourist destinations. Where else in the United States can the visitor observe majestic peacocks strolling leisurely across urban streets lined with beautiful Spanish-style red roof-tiled villas, eat fresh mangoes straight from a tree, enjoy a game of dominos in Little Havana, and view an entire neighborhood covered in murals by some of the world’s great muralists? This is a proposal to hold the 2016 RBMS preconference in Coral Gables (or, alternately, in Miami Beach). In 2016, ALA will be held in Orlando, which is approximately 240 miles from Miami and Coral Gables. There is frequent and relatively inexpensive (see below) transportation between the two hubs; the Miami-Orlando route is also a relatively easy drive for those who choose to rent a car. 1. Facilities Although Miami Beach is a popular venue for conferences, we would like to propose the city of Coral Gables as the main venue for the preconference. There are several conference- appropriate hotels in Coral Gables, and some events could be held on the University of Miami campus. University of Miami Event Venues Website: http://www6.miami.edu/umpresents/venues.html Other Possible Venues http://www.westincoralgables.com/ http://coralgables.hyatt.com/en/hotel/home.html http://www.miamibeachconvention.com/ 2. Accommodations Both Miami and Coral Gables offer a very wide array of accommodations. A recent SALALM (Seminar on the Acquisition of Latin American Materials in Libraries) conference (similar in size to RBMS) was held at the Westin Colonnade in Coral Gables. The Westin is smaller than many conference hotels, but can accommodate up to 350 people (theater style) in the Merrick Ballroom along with 40 “table-top” exhibits in their Rotunda. The area designated for lunches and breaks measures circa 9,000 square feet. There is additional space for large breakouts if needed. The hotel can offer up to 100 rooms to attendees; the rate would be $149.00-$169.00 range. The Hyatt hotel across the street from the Westin can also accommodate overflow. There are also smaller hotels and inns within a five mile radius of the Westin. More information about hotels and conference venues can be found at these sites: http://www.citybeautiful.net/ http://coralgableschamber.org/ http://www.miamiandbeaches.com/places-to-see/coral-gables http://www.miami.edu/finance/index.php/travel_management/hotels/ 3. Hosting Organization Charles Eckman, Dean of Libraries at the University of Miami, has endorsed providing appropriate hospitality for the preconference. The Libraries will host an evening reception on campus, and will also strive to provide accommodations for workshops. The Libraries will also provide tours of their facilities, which include Special Collections, the Cuban Heritage Collection, the Paul Buisson Architecture Library, and the Marta and Austin Weeks Music Library. The Libraries also house one of the only on-campus conservation labs in Florida, as well as a growing Digital Initiatives Department. Tours of these locations will be offered to interested conference attendees. Colleagues in these libraries and departments, as well as area librarians, archivists, and curators, have expressed interest and enthusiasm in helping with local arrangements, area tours, transportation, restaurant nights, etc. 4.

Transportation Miami is easily accessible from most geographic locations, with two large international airports (Miami and Fort Lauderdale) located within driving distance to several major attractions, hotels, and popular neighborhoods. Miami International Airport is walking distance from the Metrorail, which has stops in central city locations (i.e. Downtown Miami, Coconut Grove, Coral Gables, Overtown, and the Government Center). There is a University of Miami stop on the Metrorail for those wishing to commute by public transportation, and cabs and shuttles are also readily available at the airport for reasonable rates. The city of Coral Gables has its own trolley service while the University of Miami also provides free shuttle transportation around its campus. Major Airports near Miami Miami International Airport Fort Lauderdale Airport Miami-Orlando: Flights American Airlines: 9 nonstop flights MIA-MCO / day Starting at $190 as of 23 July 2014 Trains Amtrak: 2 trains MIA-ORL / day Leaving at 8:20 am and 11:50 am Starting at $43 as of 23 July 2014 Metrorail Metrorail: Cost per trip is $2.25 regardless of distance. It’s one of the cheapest and fastest ways to reach major areas in Miami. The Metrorail operates from 5 a.m. to midnight, seven days a week.

Other Factors/Considerations • Should conference-goers wish to add a vacation to their conference, they will have access to the largest cruise-ship port in the world. Locations in the Caribbean, South and Central America, and other parts of Florida are easily accessible thanks to the port and Miami International Airport. • Miami is fast becoming one of the largest art markets in the country, due in part to the annual Art Basel festival. There is an abundance of art galleries, small private (but open to the public) museums, and public art spaces throughout Dade County. • The Everglades and the Florida Keys are relatively short driving distances from Miami. Although overnight or multi-day stays are recommended for those who wish to visit Key West, Key Largo and Islamorada are easy day trips. • Although the summer is, without a doubt, quite…warm in Miami, the temperature never rises much above 88 degrees Fahrenheit, and the city and environs are cooled by constant ocean breezes. • Food! Miami’s population boasts great ethnic diversity—Cuban, Haitian, Dominican, Colombian, Brazilian, Argentinian, French, and many more—and each group brings its own “flavor” to the local cuisine (Floribbean, anyone?). Furthermore, many of Miami’s luxury hotels house high-end restaurants run by “star” chefs. You can start your day with Cuban coffee and end it with fresh mojitos poolside…and sample the foods of the Caribbean, Europe, Central and South America in between! 8.

  • 121 the Herpetofauna of the Doc Thomas House in South
    121 Florida Field Naturalist 27(3):121-123, 1999. THE HERPETOFAUNA OF THE DOC THOMAS HOUSE IN SOUTH MIAMI, FLORIDA WALTER E. MESHAKA, JR. Everglades Regional Collections Center, Everglades National Park, 40001 SR-9336, Homestead, Florida 33034-6733 [email protected] Thirty-nine species of exotic reptiles and amphibians are established in Florida (Butterfield et al. 1997; Meshaka et al. 1999), 34 of which are found in Dade County. Nearly all of these exotics inhabit buildings and disturbed habitat. The Doc Thomas House (DTH), built in 1931 by Dr. Arden Hayes Thomas in what is now the city of South Miami, represents one such site. The property is a remnant parcel of the once extensive rockland pine/tropical hardwood hammock mosaic of the Atlantic coastal ridge (Lodge 1998). One year before his death in 1974, Dr. Thomas donated his house and approxi- mately 1.2 ha of land to the Tropical Audubon Society for environmental and education purposes. The property was poorly tended from the mid 1950s until the early 1990s, when efforts were made to restore the site to pineland and two hammocks by removing unwanted exotic species and replacing them with native flora. However, some exotic plants were retained for historical reasons. The area north and west of the property is the commercial district of the City of South Miami. Urban residential areas surround DTH to the south and east. Consequently, the house grounds represent a small, semi- natural island within an ocean of human commerce and habitation. DTH thus provides an opportunity to measure the response of the southern Florida herpetofauna to the res- toration of a fragment of once natural and expansive habitat that is now imbedded in an urban setting.

  • A Video Conversation with Visionary Craig Robins
    Inspicio arts leadership Introduction to Craig Robins: 2:31 min. Photo: Raymond Elman. Music: Carmen Cicero. Design District building photos: Richard Patterson, Robin Hill, Lala Pereira, ra-haus. A Video Conversation with Visionary Craig Robins By Elman + Zummar + Zuckerman + Johnson Excerpt from the Dacra website: raig Robins is an entrepreneur, real estate developer, and art collector based in Miami, Florida. As the CEO C and President of Dacra, the real estate development company he founded in 1987, Robins focuses on de- veloping creative communities that integrate art, design, and architecture to accelerate asset value creation and enrich urban life. Dacra has spearheaded some of the most successful and transformative commercial, residential, and mixed-use projects in Miami’s history, including South Beach, the Lincoln Road area, Allison Island and currently, the Miami Design District. The latter is an 18-square block neighborhood dedicated to fashion, design, and art that incorporates the work of emerging and es- tablished architects, site-specific public art, and stores by the world’s most significant luxury brands. In the late 1980s through the early 1990s, Robins played an inte- gral role in the repositioning and revitalization of Miami’s South Beach through Dacra’s restoration of Art Deco landmarks, and the creation of new commercial and cultural opportunities. He realized that creative public programming would rapidly foster a sense of community, and his projects were defined in part by performances, public art, and dynamic events that were inclu- sive of residents and visitors to the area. In parallel, Dacra also developed mixed-use projects throughout South Beach, includ- ing Lincoln Road and Espanola Way, and later acquired an 8.5 acre parcel of land on Allison Island where they created a New Urbanist residential community, AQUA, featuring contemporary art and modern architecture.

  • Florida Bibliography
    A HISTORICAL BIBLIOGRAPHY OF THE BUILT ENVIRONMENT IN MIAMI AND SOUTHERN FLORIDA Originally compiled by Malinda Cleary, Richard Longstreth, and Aristides J. Millas Edited by Richard Longstreth 1999, revised 31 December 2017 This bibliography focuses on historical accounts written during the past three decades. Owing to the extent material, and the nature of much of its contents, I have made no attempt to separate popular from scholarly accounts or general histories from those that are devoted to the built environment. The basic divisions are geographical, followed by one on architects and landscape architects in the region. My gratitude goes to Melinda Cleary and Aristides Millas for compiling the core of these listings. Donald Curl kindly reviewed a draft and made valuable contributions as well. -- Editor F L O R I D A Akin, Edward Nelson, Henry Flagler: Rockefeller Partner and Florida Resort King, Kent, Ohio: Kent State University Press, 1988 Ayers, W.

  • A Guide to the City Beautiful the City Beautiful
    A GUIDE TO THE CITY BEAUTIFUL THE CITY BEAUTIFUL Coral Gables’ founder, George E. Merrick, imagined both a “City Beautiful” and a “Garden City,” with lush green avenues winding through a residential city, punctuated by civic landmarks and embellished with detailed and playful architectural features. Today, Coral Gables stands out as a planned community that blends color, details, and a Mediterranean architectural style; it’s a rare pearl in South Florida. Early city planners and visionaries were influenced by the aesthetics of the City Beautiful Movement that swept across America in the early 1900s which encouraged the use of wide tree-lined avenues, monumental buildings, winding roadways, green space, ornate plazas, and fountains. All these elements of style have been and continue to be incorporated throughout the City. The City’s distinct tropical beauty is being enhanced by Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden’s Million Orchid Project, an ambitious initiative that is reintroducing one million native orchids to street trees in Miami-Dade County, including more than 250,000 in the City Beautiful. Thanks to the City’s Tree Succession Project, the planting of approximately 3,000 new trees is now complete. The City continues to invest in its green canopy.
