South Florida Photo of the Week: 10/27/09

sfpow-metromover1027marco-haber

Marco Haber sent us this picture of the Metro Mover “or, as it is also affectionately called after dark – The Mugger Mover.”  Despite the inefficiencies in Miami’s public transportation system, Haber still thinks it’s cool that the Metro Mover runs through the center of buildings.

Haber is a hand percussionist.  We used some of his music for our story on “Cities of Refuge” in our literary episode.

Show us South Florida through your lens.  You can share photos with us on our Flickr group or by emailing them to photos@wlrnunderthesun.org.  We pick one each week to feature on the website.

Why We're Telling These Stories

From Abe Rich's nephew...

On behalf of my family, friends and those that were close to my Uncle - thank you! It is truly a treasure to have the piece recorded and available for us and future generations to cherish. The story really captures his character, persona and spirit. Abe was a simple man, a man who struggled to survive during a tragic era in our history. His traumas and survival instinct kept him alive in Europe, Israel and in Miami as he worked till he could no longer stand up. As it said on his shop wall... "There is no substitute for hard work." I believe you and everyone at WLRN work very hard to provide us with wonderful programming and go above and beyond your call of duty. Thank you very much.
