Join authors Allan T. Shulman, Randall C. Robinson and James (Jeff) F. Donnelly for readings and discussion of Miami Architecture, the authoritative guidebook that provides a broad, accessible architectural overview of the notable buildings that can be found in the core of downtown Miami, Miami Beach, and Coconut Grove. Published in 2010 (Univ. of Florida, $29.95), the book grew out of the Miami Architecture Project, a community-based, nonprofit association that organized more than a dozen local forums to develop deeper appreciation of architecture and the role of architecture in community revitalization.
