Not two weeks into the new year however, we experienced the tragedy in Haiti. We are all affected by this catastrophic disaster in our neighboring country. Like other communities

Closer to home the South Miami City Commission gave us all a New Year’s present by ridding our streets and sidewalks of what I call “visual distractions” – the spinners and other walking signs promoting area businesses. Drivers are distracted enough and at busy intersections this kind of marketing creates additional hazards for both motorists and pedestrians. Not to mention how tacky this all looks in our Town Center.

As we go about re-branding the area of South Miami Town Center to a shortened version, “SoMi Town,” the magazine is sponsoring a “tag line” contest. A big thanks to those who have submitted entries. Right now, we’re holding with “It’s Where You Belong” until the jury comes back with the results. We anticipate announcing the new tagline in our upcoming issue.

LIVE

As we begin the new year, there is a heightened sense of optimism in town that things are beginning to turn around. We have new restaurants opening, new nightlife options and a host of other businesses moving forward. These are encouraging signs as we begin a new decade and SoMi continues to be a destination of choice for the cognoscenti.

throughout the United States, businesses in South Miami responded immediately to the clarion call for help. From solicitation boxes in shops and restaurants, to cupcake sales, to an evening of French Songs for Haiti, our community rallied to the cause. The City of South Miami Commission voted last week to donate $25,000 for Haitian relief & recovery – and welcomes matching funds from other interested individuals. According to national news reports of January 21, Americans generously donated $355 million for the relief effort. As Haiti moves off front page coverage, the need is now ever greater for our contributions to recovery and rebuilding. Please continue to be supportive of our brothers and sisters.

Fifty Years of Service

In 1959, a building rose off South Dixie Highway in South Miami. The owner, James Lyons, M.D., planned an office building. However, twentyfive local doctors, who had no place to hospitalize their patients, had another plan. They pooled their money, leasing the building and transforming it into a 100-bed hospital. On February 22, 1960, South Miami Hospital opened its doors to fifteen patients. The hospital included a pharmacy, emergency room, cafeteria, laboratory, maternity unit and X-ray department. “There’s no doubt South Miami Hospital had a very humble beginning,” said CEO Lincoln Mendez. “But the community rallied behind the hospital, and the hospital focused on the needs of the community.” Fifty years later, the hospital has grown to 467 patient beds, recording 17,000 admissions and 33,000 emergency room visits annually.

* smoke t’s opening act The first weekend of January ushered in a new SoMi “neighborhood bbq joint” as friends, family and VIP guests got down with some finger-lickin’ good eats at smoke’t, located where JJ’s once stood on US1. Performing at the Grand Opening VIP Party was the band Brooks Reid.

suds UP Beer lovers rejoiced as Cervezas had its opening on Friday, December 15th. Situated in one of our characteristic historic buildings on Sunset Drive, Cervezas offers up over 200 brews from around the world.

“Our hospital really started out of necessity,” said James Vaughn, M.D., the first chief of staff. “But I think we were so successful because of our approach to patients. We put them first.” The hospital’s motto was “Pampered Patient Care.” That philosophy endured throughout its expansion. In 1990, the hospital purchased James Archer Smith Hospital, now Homestead Hospital, and in 1995, the two hospitals merged with Baptist Hospital to become part of Baptist Health.

Boas. Yet, Boas and MacArthur concur that the city has grown-up over the years. “There is a lot of activity on the streets, generated by a lively restaurant and retail scene that didn’t exist in the past,” said Bruce MacArthur. Mary Jane Mark and Ed Boas spoke about the satisfaction associated with seeing third-generation buyers in their stores. Said Mark, “The children and grandchildren of my customers are coming in to buy their first bike—a memory they will look upon fondly as they go through life.”

The family-originated enterprises of Lane’s and Mack Cycle began when they opened in the late 1950s. In time, both Ed Boas and MaryJane Mark took over the day-to-day operations of their respective stores from their fathers. Lane’s has continuously run its men’s clothing store in the historic Crossroads building located on Red Road and Sunset. Mack Cycle’s first location on SW62nd Avenue was as a bicycle and lawnmower retailer-repair shop. In 1969 they moved to their current location at 5995 Sunset Drive and by the following year, concentrated on bikes and all things associated with them.

Each person expressed his or her commitment to exemplary customer service. Perhaps best captured by FNBSM’s tagline, “Superior service provided by local professionals you can trust.” They believe that their success is tied to that of the community. For them customer service extends to participating as a community member of South Miami: pitching in when asked; donating to the Community Center; and sponsoring fundraising events and public events such as the Parade of the Elves, the Fourth of July Fireworks Celebration, and the South Miami Arts & Crafts Festival (among others). And they continue to demonstrate their financial commitment to the community as business anchors that keep the Town Center vital and attractive for other businesses and customers.

The First National Bank of South Miami opened its doors April 3, 1952 as the Bank of South Miami at 5750 Sunset Drive, providing the city its own banking services for the first time. A number of local and mid-Western businessman and civic leaders, among them South Miami Mayor Harley W. Vanderboegh and “Mr. South Miami,” Omar Stang, served as officers and employees of the fledgling bank. Bruce MacArthur’s grandfather, Chicagoan, Arthur M. Wirtz, was named chairman of the bank’s executive committee in 1960; the Wirtz family has remained with the bank to the present day. The bank is still at its original location, even though it has had a number of expansions over time. All three business people agree that the community of South Miami is noteworthy for its small town familiarity, “You always run into someone you know,” said Ed

When asked where he thought the Town Center city was going, Ed Boas commented that it has a new energy that makes him feel extremely positive about its future. Mary Jane Mark is looking forward to working with the city to make it a more ‘cyclist-friendly’ environment. “All the problems of the world can be solved with bicycles: over-consumption of fossil fuels, traffic congestion, isolation from one’s community, and obesity.” DONNA SHELLEY

Miami-Dade Transit’s Metrorail broke ground in 1980, opening the South Miami station on May 2, 1983. SoMi’s station, sited on 7.7 acres, includes the train platform and two parking garages. Typical of large-scale public building projects of the late 1970s to early 1980s, the garages are constructed of raw concrete and rendered in a sparse architectural style, sometimes referred to as “Brutalism.” The solid mass of these buildings serves to create visual barriers in the neighborhood. The structures also contribute to the physical barrier caused by speeding traffic on US1--a major transportation route separating the west side of our Town Center from its easterly retail and restaurant district. The Hometown Station plan, dating to 1994, when the Hometown Plan Area Charette II was presented, was designed to be a mixed-use project that would make the Metrorail site a more welcoming, viable, and functioning public space–one which would connect to its surroundings and the community. The development was to be built via investments from the Miami-Dade Transit Agency, the City of South Miami Community Redevelopment Agency and others in order to revitalize the area. In December 1998, the Board of County Commissioners received one bid via a competitive request-for-proposal and in 1999 the Board awarded a lease for the project to prominent businessman Raul P. Masvidal’s Hometown Station, Ltd. The lease began in 2001 and work commenced on Phase I which was the refurbishment of the existing garage; three other phases were planned. In 2005-6, Delant Construction began to clear the site for Phase II and dismantled Paciencia, storing it in its Medley yard for safekeeping. Hometown Station was to be built within and around the station with a collection of thin “liner building” elements that would wrap around and atop the existing garage. The project called for an office building in Phase II, ground floor level retail space in Phase III, and an apartment building in Phase IV. According to Dover, Kohl & Partners, the original planners for the project, Hometown Station would add, “New round-theclock occupants and put a whole new human face on the

The APP program has acquired or commissioned over 700 works of art that enhance

public spaces and the artistic heritage of Miami-Dade County including John Henry’s Paciencia now re-installed at the South Miami Metrorail station. According to some reports, the sculpture was “lost” for two years after it had been removed in order to commence construction on Phase II of the Hometown Station project. But it was, in fact never lost but kept in Delant Construction’s facility, where it had been stored originally. (Raul Masvidal,

an avid art collector and developer of the Hometown Station, reportedly spent $20,000 to move the sculpture from the site.) When the sculpture was “rediscovered” by the county, it was taken by John Henry to his studio in Chattanooga where it was totally restored. The restoration and installation (minus landscaping) totaled $44,463. These funds were provided by APP, as they are responsible for the care and maintenance of all artworks in the program including Paciencia.

station.” The planners envisioned a project that would bind together and complement the existing garage and platform with elements that would “Help change the station into a unified, urbane place.” In 2002-3, the Miami-Dade Housing Authority chose the South Miami Metrorail site for its new $27 million, 157,000-square-foot office complex; Mr. Masvidal’s company was awarded the lease agreement. Previous to MDHA’s interest in the site, Hometown Station, Ltd. had explored other options such as a hotel, affordable housing, etc., but it was MDHA’s office that was chosen as the building slated for Hometown Station’s Phase II (scheduled to begin in 2004). Much controversy ensued concerning the MDHA’s proposed building, beginning with the source of the initial $5 million funding for the project – surtax money that was earmarked for low-income housing and continuing with an outcry over the stripped-down re-design of the project that eliminated much of the original charm as proposed by a subsequent architectural firm. Delays, site infrastructure issues and changes were alleged by both MiamiDade County and Hometown Station, Ltd., which resulted in the county’s cancellation of the entire project and ongoing legal hurdles for Raul Masvidal. As the battle over Hometown Station was waged and ultimately lost, the residents of South Miami were left with a barren plot of County-owned land surrounded by Jersey barriers and green construction fencing, punctuated by brooding parking garages. Eight long years later, the city has been able to carve out 17,000 square feet for a passive park through a $1 per annum lease agreement with the county. The combined forces of the offices of Commissioner Carlos A. Gimenez, Mayor Horace Feliu and the City Commission resulted in a much-needed green respite on the Sunset Drive frontage of the Metrorail station. Paciencia Park was formally opened in a ribboncutting ceremony on November 24, 2009, complete with John Henry’s yellow sculpture once again standing brilliant against South Miami’s blue sky. And Paciencia waits for another development project to bring life to the area. DONNA SHELLEY

John Henry has been a sculptor for over 30 years and is known for his large-scale, geometrical works of art. One of America’s foremost artists, his sculptures grace numerous museums, corporate, public and private collections in the United States, Europe and Asia. In South Miami, his work, titled Paciencia, enlivens the public gathering space that is our Metrorail station. The bright yellow piece, designed by the artist specifically for the site, provides an aesthetically sunny respite to the commonplace gray concrete parking garages looming just behind it. Mr. Henry attended the University of Kentucky, University of Chicago and the Art Institute of Chicago. He has taught sculpture at the University of lowa, University of Wisconsin, University of Chicago and the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, and has also lectured extensively on the role of art in public places. He is currently Curator of the Outdoor Museum of Art, Chattanooga State College. Recent honors include recognition on the floor of the Tennessee State Senate in 2004 and in 2005 the honorary renaming of North Cermak Road to “John Henry Way” by the City of Chicago in recognition of his contributions to Public Art on local and national levels. Paciencia (Spanish for “patience”) stands 35-feet high and is constructed of welded steel and aluminum, painstakingly coated in many layers of bright paint. The sculpture is maintained by Miami-Dade County through its Art in Public Places (APP) program. First exhibited at the Chicago Art Fair in 1982, this sculpture was purchased by the county and installed later that year. The piece was restored at Mr. Henry’s studio in Chattanooga (johnhenrysculptor.com) with funding from the APP Program. When asked why the sculpture is named Paciencia, Kentuckian John Henry said, “Miami in the 1980’s was an interesting place. I chose a Spanish word to express my experience in getting used to the Miami culture and how long it takes to get things done here.” PHOTOGRAPHED BY: John Edward Smith

Established in 1973, our home county lays claim to being among the first public art programs in the country. Art in Public Places (APP) promotes collaboration and creative art projects that improve the visual quality of public spaces. The program is funded by an ordinance that allocates 1.5% of the construction cost of new county buildings for the purchase or commission of artworks.

A FEW MINUTES

PATIENTLY WAITING AT THE STATION South Miami’s Metrorail station, located at South Dixie Highway (US1) and Sunset Drive, is once again home to artist John Henry’s sculpture Paciencia. This piece aptly named “patience,” has been something of a witness to the pitch and toss that accompanied the proposed Hometown Station development. Known locally as the “French Fries,” this large-scale work of art by one of America’s foremost artists was introduced to the city in 1982 as part of Miami-Dade County’s Art in Public Places program. In 2005-6, the sculpture was dismantled and removed as construction was about to begin on the site. Refurbished and installed in late 2009, the bright yellow landmark announces South Miami’s Metrorail station, a Town Center gateway, and a new passive park bearing the name of the sculpture.

cool blues are still in even though the temperature is rising

With our usually warm little city still slightly bundled up from unseasonably chilly winter weather, it’s time to think ahead to and let the dark shades of winter fade away in to the far reaches of our dresser drawers. It is time now to focus on the sheer, seductive colors that glimmer on the Spring horizon. Delicate, washed-out blue tints, soft, muted pastels and blushing shades will set a fashion tone that is soothing and romantic. Pale washed-out blue hues will saturate the scene this season, capturing the majesty of glaciers and icebergs or the soft, airiness of warm Caribbean waters. Ancient in its feel, this blue is understated and never aggressive. Its ambiguity in color makes it versatile: used as a trim, accessory or block out color, this shade can take on a more chameleonesque vibe with softer, lighter color schemes and finely structured pieces such as the designs of Blumarine, Gucci and Sonia Rykiel.

“

If intrigue is your goal, pair a frigidly icy blue look with vamp style stilettos and deconstructed organic accessories found in the edgier designs of Alexander McQueen, Nicholas Kirkwood and Proenza Schouler.

”

Be it soft and serene or sharply frigid, the lighter pastel blues play well together with symbols of prestige and understated distinction. Keep an eye open for accessories in rich aquamarine, moonstone, topaz and light sapphire tones to pair with your blue fashion confection. The perennially great Italian designer Mila Schon and the creations that graced the runways of Vivienne Westwood, MiuMiu, Balenciaga, Bottega Venetta, and Chloe include a vintage twist, with lace-up ankle booties, lightweight cardigans and soft, free-flowing, knee-length skirts – some of which have lace and tulle petticoats for a little extra POOF! These designs remind me of conversations between my grandmother and her friends and the chic looks of their time. Playing on the cool tones of this season’s fabrics, the color palette pays homage to the opalescent casts favored by aristocratic ladies of the 1960s. This color story draws on taupes, delicate orange tints, blushy pinks, neutral beige, nudes, ecru, camel and ivory tones.

chest this season is a chunky index-finger ring in the featured colors. Simple yet commanding, this staple piece pairs well with the rest of the color spectrum. As warm weather returns, it’s once again cocktail time! With this season’s accessories, you’ll shine at parties by the pool, having an aperitif on the beach, or at happy hour in town. Bright and fun, the most hip jewelry today includes the layering and tinkling of currencyinspired accessories such as coin bracelets and necklaces. The color schemes stay true to the season as well, with ivory, pastel blues, pinks, oranges, and nude tones kicking up the chic factor of your look. Don’t forget to vamp up a simple ensemble with a big cocktail ring worn on the indexfinger, and to add texture and depth don’t be afraid to mix in unique natural pieces for the neck and arms.

* future fashion insight FROM SPRING INTO SUMMER // Miami sheds its layers but not the glitz and glam that makes our city famous. Chic, light and airy colors bring forth the opulence of our city in the sun. In a place where our style stays true to the climate and wearing less is more, this season’s color spectrum allows us to dress up and still have that provocative Miami vibe.

Interestingly, this elegant nude look results in the neo-classic sensuality reminiscent of the early designs of Jean Patou and Nina Ricci, early masters of the flawless lad like looks of the 1950s and early 1960s. These shades are prevalent in pearls, moonstones, corals and bronze-finished metals such as rose gold as well as light yellow gold tones. A definite must have in your treasure

FOOTLOOSE IN PARADISE As residents of South Florida, we sometimes take this season’s sunny and 70 degree days for granted. While our families and friends northward are bearing winter‚s brunt, we are living that idyllic, cheesy, “wish-you-were-here” Miami postcard that just happens to be true. This great weather arrives when many of us have packed on a few pounds during the holidays, AND WE begin to realize something has to be done about our expanding waistlines. That thing is exercise. The fantastic weather from January to March creates the perfect milieu to host a slew of outdoor physical activities, from kickball leagues to ironman triathlons. We forget that keeping in shape doesn’t necessarily mandate a gym membership. Many people would rather sacrifice their own wellness than step into an “iron jungle” for the tangible anxiety it can sometimes bring. The good news is that there are plenty of alternative options right here in SoMi that can get you into tip-top shape without stepping foot in a gym but rather into our alluring, sub-tropical backyard.

A great way to progressively better your physical state is to just start walking. People underestimate the power of our own two legs to bolster our fitness level. Due to its large muscle groups, your lower half contains much more calorieburning potential than your upper body. Aerobic capacity is easy to improve with a progression from walking to jogging and vastly, from jogging to running. One place in town that does its part particularly well in getting people geared up, moving in the right direction and at the same time giving back to the community is FootWorks. Owner Laurie Huseby finds the biggest rewards not in the work of promoting running itself but the benefits it brings to the community and to those who participate in the store’s many activities. “After 35 years in business and encouraging running, promotingrunning,puttingonraces,andorganizing training programs, our greatest satisfaction still comes from the person who says we have changed their life–that they are healthier, their blood pressure and cholesterol are down, and they are

Our health can so easily be bettered by adding more physical activity to our day. The human body is designed to move and, indeed, suffers when forced to be sedentary. So, help yourself by taking advantage of our great SoFLA location with its beautiful scenery and enjoy the weather while getting fit outdoors!

WARM WINES OF WINTER The fresh whites of summer seem like distant memories, and the holiday bubblies have been popped and fizzled out. What should one drink to weather the harsh SoMi winter? Read on. In the 17th Century, during a time when the British and French were upset at each other (surprise!), many British wine merchants began to look elsewhere for products that would satisfy their market’s thirst. Arriving in Portugal, these merchants found the wines of the northern coast to be too astringent and thin (think Vinho Verde), and trudged on inland to see what the warmer interior had to offer. They found darker, bolder wines, no doubt, but their most prized discovery was the sweet, fiery red wine we now know as Port. Port is produced by a method called arrested fermentation. Fermentation is the conversion of the sugars in grape juice into alcohol by the action of yeast. Yeast die in solutions that are over around 15% alcohol by volume, so if the alcohol level is raised by the addition of spirit (brandy), the yeast is killed off before it consumes all of the sugar. The result is a naturally sweet wine. Port was traditionally made by treading the grapes by foot (à la I Love Lucy), which yielded wines that were intensely colored and structured because of the fast and aggressive method of production and the unbridled heat of the fermentation. While most wines are not produced this way anymore, they retain this powerful structural profile, and the best are candidates for extremely long cellaring. Based on the amount of time the wines spend in wood barrels they are categorized into two styles, Ruby and Tawny. Ruby Ports receive the shortest amounts of wood aging, so the wines do not lose their deep red-purple hues. Tawny Ports, on the other hand, undergo much more extensive aging in wood and so become brown and less astringent. Almost all Ports fall within these two broad categories. The top of the line for Ruby is Vintage Port, made only in the best years, and meant for at least 10 to 15 years of cellaring before consumption. The best value for quality in the Ruby category is LBV or Late-Bottled Vintage Port, which is produced in lesser vintages but nonetheless carries a vintage year, and has been aged in wood long enough to make it very enjoyable upon purchase. Basic Ruby Port is generic, and although it can be good it is rarely more than that. As far as Tawny, the ones that carry an indication of age offer the best quality and value, particularly 10- or 20-year bottles, which won’t break the bank but provide the sweetness and depth this type of Port is known for. Colheita Ports, which are some of the rarest, are vintage dated Tawnys. Basic Tawny, just like basic Ruby, is generic and carries no indication of vintage or length of aging. Port, Ruby or Tawny, has a fiery, warming character due to its alcoholic content, which is usually around 5 points higher than regular wine’s. A good LBV, for example, is great to just sip as a digestif after dinner, along with some chocolate or other medium-sweet desserts. Another great pairing for Port is cheese, traditionally blue, like Stilton or other full flavored cheeses. When it comes to Port, it is worth spending a little extra (at least $18 -20) in order to enjoy good quality and avoid disappointment. Port style wines are produced in many countries, but since the regulations are much laxer in these areas it is hard to know what to expect from these, which doesn’t mean there aren’t some fabulous ones out there, particularly from Australia. So cozy up under a warm blanket, crack a good book and enjoy the warmth of this classic wine!

>At its meeting in mid-September 2008, the City of South Miami Commission approved a new “small restaurant” at the corner of Southwest 73rd Street and 58 Avenue, across from the municipal garage. The 1,900 sq.ft. building housed Rey’s Cleaners. Segafreddo Zanetti Espresso South Miami is the official name of the new restaurant. We’ll all to come to know it as “SoMi Café.” SoMi Café’s owner/developer is Willy Quintana. Willy grew up in South Miami and has come back to the area with his new franchise and the new SoMi brand. It’s a name that Willy floated as he was envisioning his project and the positioning it would have in our South Miami Town Center.

As the photos above depict, from September 2008 ‘til now, the building has undergone a complete rehab. Over the last sixteen months Willy has been managing water main issues below ground, and above ground, new supports and roof. As many know, when rehabbing a structure, you face even more challenging obstacles than the usual construction problems and delays. Designed to be a dining/entertainment venue, this upscale café and coffee lounge will also have a schedule of live music. The menu will consist of certified organic, all natural products; wheat panini and pizze will be available. Full bar service will be available through 5a. Also envisioned is an authentic Bocce ball court for the true Italian experience. As a Segafredo Zanetti Espresso franchisee, Willy will join over five hundred locations world-wide. Building their corporate philosophy over twenty years, the café will reflect the Italian lifestyle found in its renowned coffee bars. Committed to excellence in product quality, efficient service and a friendly atmosphere, the experience should make a difference in the quality of life for its customers.

One of the girls, Vicki, was manager of Studio LX in the Mary Brickell Village. Miss Pepper She brought her young Boston Terrier to work and the dog became the mascot of the shopping center.
