Summary

[edit]
Description

The history of the City of Miami, City Hall and Pan American Airways are forever entwined together in what once was the Pan American Seaplane Terminal at Dinner Key. Built in 1933, the Dinner Key Terminal and Airport was the most modern and largest marine air facility in the world, leading the way to Pan Am's future role as an international leader in aviation, transportation of people, property and mail. Referred to as the “Air Gateway between the Americas” the airport became a famous visiting attraction. Many people used to gather in front of the airport to watch the arrival and departure of the Pan Am “flying boats" or “clipper ships”. It is from here that president Franklin Roosevelt departed on January 11, 1943 to Casablanca, Morocco in the Dixie Clipper to meet with Prime Minister Winston Churchill at the height of World War II.
