Additional Information
Introduction
The Freedom Tower in Miami allows you to trace the exodus of Cubans to the US during the cold war and learn about this impressive monument to the 1920's real estate boom. The Freedom Tower was donated by the Pedro Martin family in 2005 to Miami Dade College and designated a national landmark in 2008. The Freedom Tower is considered one of the best architectural achievements in Florida. Serving as a reception station and medical facility for refugees from 1962 to 1975, the building presents a memorial to Cuban immigration. It is also a premier venue for notable events and exhibitions, such as the Madeleine Albright Collection and the works of famous artists like Dali.

Free museum that showcases images of the history of those who fled Cuba. Wonderful building as well.
Explore remnants from the Cuban exodus at The Freedom Tower. On the first floor, an exhibition of artifacts from the first exiles is displayed. View old suitcases, hand made dresses, guayaberas (the typical linen, four-pocketed Cuban shirt) and, even, teddy bears, which comforted children on the voyage. There are many black and white photographs of the immigrants as well. They came to the Freedom Tower to be processed upon their arrival in Miami. On the upper floors of the tower, there are museums of art. One of my favorite pieces of cultural history is "The Sleep of Dream Producers Monsters" from Goya.

The Freedom Tower is consider Miami's Ellis Island, a butter yellow beacon in Downtown Miami across from Bayside Market place, served as an immigration processing center.
The Freedom Tower is a landmark of Miami. It has a century-old history. It was once a government office building. You can visit the Freedom Tower. But when we passed by, it was not open and just took photos.
