Many thanks to the Miami Herald for passing along photos of their new 150,000-square-foot home in Doral, in the 3300 block of Northwest 91st Avenue, a small city on the west side of Miami-Dade County. The new facility is perfectly tailored for the new media as reporters and photographers more and more rely on modern technology (smart phones, digital cameras, etc) to better and more efficiently cover breaking news, politics and sports for their 1.5 million readers.
While admittedly it’s taking Herald employees a little time getting comfortable with their new headquarters, away from One Herald Plaza with its spectacular view of Biscayne Bay, their new home, which once housed the U.S. Southern Command, comes equipped with a fully-stocked workout room (something they didn’t have at their previous home) and a more expansive newsroom with an interlocking grid of desks and offices, creating a sharp and modern synergistic flow from department to department, where even editors are now more accessible.
