This project has interviewed 144 long-time Miami Beach residents in an effort to capture the rich history the City has to offer, over the past 10 years. Miami Design Preservation League and Close-Up Productions have created numerous promotional videos and three educational videos for elementary, middle, and high school with supplemental curricula for the classroom. A Facebook page and website were created, and the interviews have all been transcribed with a digital archive now available through FIU’s Digital Library. While continuing to expand the video archive, “Window on Miami” a digital promotional portal showcasing the existing archive with links highlighting Miami and Miami Beach’s historical resources, was created.
