More information on Freedom Tower

This landmark building located in the center of Miami is especially important to Cuban residents. During the 1960s, it was the processing center for nearly half a million Cuban refugees. Prior to its stint as a Cuban refugee center, the Freedom Tower housed the Miami News, but at present the building fills no special role except as a local landmark. Many current Cuban residents of Miami hope the edifice will be reincarnated as a Cuban-exile museum in the near future.
