Additional Details:
This huge globe revolves in the lobby of the Pan-American Airways Terminal. Globe is oriented so that its axis parallels that of the earth under foot at Miami and its North Pole points to the North Star; thus in the course of rotation Miami comes to the top of globe once every two minutes and the observer has opportunity to orient himself with reference to rest of the world.
