This Miami Beach art house opened in 2003. It was located in a Mediterranean Revival style hotel at 512 Espanola Way, and had a seating capacity of around 50.
In 2011, it relocated to the former old Miami Beach City Hall building on Washington Avenue at 12th Street. It was taken over by O Cinema on August 1, 2019 and renamed O Cinema South Beach.

According to their website the Miami Beach Cinematheque has moved to the old Miami Beach City Hall building located at 1130 Washington Ave.
This is correct—they are now in the ‘OLD’ Historic Miami Beach City Hall that was restored and on Washington Ave (btw 11th & 12th) (as of March 2013)
