Jorge Garcia’s journey is the kind of immigrant success story that deserves a toast over a glass of red wine. Arriving in Miami during the 1960s Cuban exodus, his family settled in Liberty City, where he quickly learned the art of resilience. That grit took him to the University of Miami’s School of Architecture, and eventually, to the bold decision to launch his own firm with partner Peter Stromberg.

From designing public bathrooms for free to transforming The Boca Raton Resort & Club for Wayne Huizenga and Michael Dell, Jorge’s career has been a masterclass in reinvention. In this episode, he shares the twists, turns, and untold stories behind his architectural legacy—and the evolution of South Florida itself.
