This collection consists of over 300 digital images of drawings produced by First and Second year architecture students. The course content has been evolving since development in 1997 by Joanna Lombard, Professor of Landscape Architecture at the School of Architecture. Content will continue to be added to the Hometown Maps collection in perpetuity. The images are accessible through the University of Miami Libraries Digital Collections portal:
Leola G. Hartwell was an architect who resided in New Jersey and Miami. The L. G. Hartwell Collection consists of materials documenting her architectural design work primarily in the greater Miami area, but also some in other parts of the state and the country at large. Among projects that Hartwell worked on include the construction of Miami Dade Community College South Campus, a number of different constructions for the City of Miami, and an Opa-Locka neighborhood facility project.
The historical blueprints and the drawings of UM buildings are important components of the University Archives. The items in the collection are identified by building name, architect, location, types of materials, and date. Materials range in date from the earliest days of the University in the 1920s to current day materials.
