Recently, I stumbled upon an amazing YouTube video titled “Roads to Romance: Coral Gables, Florida, Sunland on Biscayne Bay” presented by Chevrolet in 1950.
It is a wonderful promotional film for Miami and Coral Gables in Technicolor. Also, it is an excellent visual documentary for the University of Miami, because the first one third of the three minute footage shows off the stunning Coral Gables Campus in 1950.
I was so surprised to hear the name “Miami” pronounced differently, the university buildings looked brand new and modern, and the campus was so open and spacious then.
Please go to the link below to enjoy the video.
