Graffiti art gives abandoned Miami stadium a second life

Clip: 7/21/2014 | 7m 47s

Graffiti artists have led the way in keeping the Miami Marine Stadium alive.

In the early 1960s, a Cuban architect who fled to South Florida designed the Miami Marine Stadium, an ambitious structure that hosted concerts, boat races, religious services and political rallies. But the city decided to abandon the venue when a hurricane ripped through in the early '90s. Since then, graffiti artists have led the way in keeping the cultural landmark alive. Jeffrey Brown reports.
