During the 1960&#8217;s it was the point of reception for many Cubans arriving on &#8216;freedom flights&#8217; fleeing from Fidel Castro&#8217;s regime. United States Immigration performed their operations from this building during that time and many Cubans have come to associate it with the new found freedom offered to them by the United States.<\/p>\n<p>We are starting to really like these virtual caches.
