While the event is for Miami Marine Stadium, the actual event is being held at 5 NW 36 Street (at North Miami Avenue in Midtown). In the news this week was the fact that the Miami International Boat Show is moving to Miami Marine Stadium in 2016 for a year or more. This of course is great news for the stadium, bringing it back to life with such a major event.

For the life of me, I don't understand why anyone wants to preserve this derelict, disused, rotting chunk of concrete. I've also never understood the attraction of vandalism as "art". We should tear the thing down and restore the surrounding mangroves.
Just heard on the radio half of the $30 mil
needed for restoration has been raised!
No city dollars in that amount!!

Better to put it to good use than destroy other water front views.
Why do the powers that be wait so long in deciding to restore something when doing some preventive maintainenence all along could alleviate these astronomical figures.(ie,The Coconut Grove Playhouse, The Courthouse etc.)
Anon 8:34 Government contracts is the only reason savvy individuals run for office nowadays. Frankly is there any other line of business that can be as lucrative, other than narcotics trafficking?
The only factor, in my opinion, is the re-bar. If the re-bar is good, then it's only a matter of pressure cleaning. My crew can pressure clean this monster and prepare the cement with a produce and turn loose these fantastic spray can artist with the appropriate paint/finish that will adhere to the finish for at least 25-years. I'm talking less than $2-million. Anybody, from anywhere, world would be awed by these fantastic spray can artist; Good Gravy are these artist fantastic or what? Jobie Steppe
