h the support of the University of Florida Press, faculty members Carmen Guerrero and Jaime Correa have published the results of an adaptive reuse studio project undertaken by a group of 16 upper-level students. Invited by the Office of Cultural Heritage in Santo Domingo, the project was funded through the Brian Canin Urban Design Gift to the University of Miami’s School of Architecture. These funds supported travel and research in the Dominican Republic. The book, titled Historic Sugar Mills in Santo Domingo: Case Studies in Adaptive Reuse, examines similar case studies from around the world, offers alternative designs for the adaptive transformation of four significant 15th-century historic sugar mills in southeastern Dominican Republic, and provides insights into the complex and poignant history of slavery, autonomy, and economic development. This initiative contributes to a broader mission of enhancing the Dominican Republic’s well-established tourism industry by shifting focus from the natural landscape to a deeper respect for its material culture design
