Freedom Tower, Mediterranean Revival skyscraper in Downtown Miami, United States.
Freedom Tower is a skyscraper in Mediterranean Revival style that rises above Downtown Miami's skyline and features ornate decorative details with a copper-topped dome. The building houses the Miami Dade College Museum of Art and Design, which presents contemporary art exhibitions to the public.
Built in 1925 as the headquarters of The Miami News, this structure served as a major journalistic center of its era. During the 1960s, it became a processing center for Cuban refugees and gained its current name.
The building represents a symbol of Cuban immigration and community identity, with art exhibitions that showcase the region's diverse cultural expressions today. Visitors experience how this place brings together different artistic traditions and perspectives.
Located on Biscayne Boulevard in Downtown Miami, the building offers guided tours where visitors can explore the interior and view art exhibitions. Tours provide access to learn about the site's historical and cultural importance in an organized way.
The design draws inspiration from the Giralda, the bell tower of Seville Cathedral in Spain, sharing similar architectural proportions and decorative patterns. This Spanish connection is subtly reflected in the building's façade and tower structure.
