Marina Penit. Miami Florida.

Origin of the term "Penit" (by miamigraffiti.com)
Over time the term has come to be used for any illegal graffiti oriented building (or buildings) that has become frequented by a variety of writers, or become an epicenter for graffiti in an area. The original "Penit" was the graffiti warehouse located in the Fountainbleau area in South Doral. It was theorized that the building was intended to be a Penitentiary, but was never completed, so it was referred to as "The Penit". Over time the term has become sometimes used/spelled as "Penant", "Pennet", or "Penet". Due to the lack of agreed upon spelling or pronunciation, we have gone with a simple spelling for uniformity and usefulness on the site. Some of the below locations have their names slightly adjusted from their original names to fit within a common naming scheme.

Marina Penit : (undisclosed Location). Bio by miamigrafitti.com
Activity : 1997 - Present
Formerly the Sea Stadium for the Miami Seaquarium, it was used for boat racing, water skiing shows, and concerts. It was deemed structurally unsound after Hurricane Andrew when they found cracks in the concrete structure. Though the structure is still standing fine 15 years later, they were probably mostly concerned because the concrete roof over the seating area is supposedly one of the largest directly unsupported expanses of hanging concrete in the world. Some of the earliest pieceing began there in 1997, but it became much more popular after the demolition of the Airport, Malibu, and Hialeah Penits. It has a 2 story concession area where most piecing takes place, and then a large stadium seating area that overlooks an inlet from Biscayne Bay frequently used by boaters & skiers. It is also possible to access the roof through a very rickety announcer booth precariously suspended above the seats in the middle of the stadium. To get to the ladder that leads to the roof you have to jump a gap. Their is no floor under the ladder, so if you fall, you are going about 30 feet down into broken glass and busted metal seats unless you can grab onto the rusting metal structure around you before you fall. The location has a 24 hour security guard, and is frequented by the Miami-Dade Police department for training exercises. There has been talk in 2008 of refurbishing the structure for use by the city, but plans have yet to be carried out.
