It is my privilege to submit this letter of support for the Miami Marine Stadium renovation plan. As
Dean of the UM School of Architecture and a new citizen of the Miami community, 1 am very proud of
the work the University of Miami faculty and members of my School have done to save and steward this
extraordinary architectural masterpiece. Mr. Candela's stadium has been placed among leading 20th
century architectural monuments. This recognition comes not only from the local community for whom
this is a beloved and memory filled place, but from organizations at the highest level of national and
international cultural assessment, such as: The National Trust for Historic Preservation, The World
Monument Fund, and the Getty Foundation.
Please support this item and ensure the future of this invaluable work of architecture.
Sincerely,
Rodolphe el -Khoury, PhD.
Dean
