This is a review for the Christmas installation they have at the park. The entrance is a bit…read moreconfusing but they have people directing you where to go. This is such a cute and nice use of the park. I loved it.

I love tropical park…read more I've been coming to this park for like 30 years . Not sure if you are a fan of running you can use causeway and bridges for hill and speed work. There's something nostalgic about running up what used to feel like a mountain, but in actuality is a hill. This park has a bit of everything for folks who want to get in a jog in a safe and close place to birthday parties, events, family outings, even spend a little bit of time on the water There are basketball and tennis courts and a great equestrian center . The other side of this park used to be a winter time Christmas celebration. The park itself has a plethora of random parking spots , but my favorite thing has to be being outdoors in a safe place Please, no as with virtually all other places, I am not wanting to hang around after dark . Additionally, though there is a regulation 400 m track on the bird road side of the park that opens early, I am not one to arrive somewhere before the sun comes up. That being said the hours of operation are convenient for folks who are visiting and want to just relax or for those that are training for something physical and getting healthy and prefer being outdoors instead of inside a gym with recirculated air Tip: the distance from SW. 56th St. to SW. 40th St. is exactly 1 mile. If you run along the west side of the park, you can literally run safely without heavily tracking distance and instead focus on the run and how you feel I highly encourage anyone who hasn't been to this park to visit it and touch grass every now and then . I love it and I will continue doing so anytime. I'm in town.

This was formerly a Dade County park called Blue Waters. It was given to the City of South Miami…read morewho renamed it Fuchs park April 1956, in memory of Charles T. Fuchs who founded the Holsum Baking Company in Homestead, Florida, in 1913. To be closer to distribution centers, Mr. Fuchs move his bakery to South Miami in 1934 where it became one of the biggest employers in the city. Fuchs was a civic leader in South Miami where he served as a charter member of the South Miami Chamber of Commerce and as its president from 1937 to 1944 and from 1949 until 1954 when he passed away as a result of an air boat accident. In April 1993, on the 80th anniversary of the Holsum Baking Company, the City of South Miami dedicated a plaque in his memory in the park. The park is the home for the offices for Chamber SOUTH which has served as the chamber of commerce for Greater South Miami-Dade for more than 80 years. Also n the park you will find a picnic area, picnic shelter, running/walking trail, benches, water fountain, playground, sand volleyball court, and pond. My favorite part of the park was the feature feature which attracted a large variety of birds. This park is perfect for birdwatching, exercise, picnics, and play. I really enjoyed discovering this little oasis of nature right near busy US 1.

This is a charming neighborhood park in the Kendale Lakes neighborhood of Miami. Kendale is located…read morein west Kendall, about ten miles from Miami. Henry Flagler brough his Florida East Coast Railway from West Palm Beach into the area now known as Kendale Lakes in 1903. In 1926 a hurricane devastated the area plunging it into an economic depression. The New Deal Program created by President Roosevelt helped to provide work and many CCC workers built structures all over Miami Dade County. During WWII Kendale Lakes remained largely rural as the rest of Miami sprang up. In the 1970's and 80's it was considered a bedroom community with homes owned by doctors and lawyers. Today Kendale Lakes is a well-loved suburban community with excellent schools and beautiful parks like this one. Kendale Park has a large open area for walking your dog, play, and exercise. A paved walkway winds through the park and in the center of the park is a playground and outdoor exercise equipment. This is the perfect place for people living in the community to enjoy the outdoors without having to leave the neighborhood. Anyone looking for a larger park with more amenities can avail themselves of the vast nearby Kendall Indian Hammocks Park.

Kendale Park is a quaint little park in the middle of Kendale boulevard. Its location, which is not…read morevisible from Kendall Drive, keeps the traffic away and maintains it as a community park. The large playground in its center, emphasizes that this park is mainly for children, parents, or those out for a leisurely stroll. There are signs around that say on Friday evenings, a family movie is shown in the park, but since I have never attended any of these events, I cannot be certain as to how many people attend these events and how crowded it gets. But on a typical day or night, the park is mostly empty, and those benches under trees makes you just want to sit down and watch the day dissipate into the night.
