Local Porch Notes

A few Florida threads tied to Miami-Dade County

Outdoors

Biscayne Bay is Miami's front yard

Biscayne Bay shapes Miami's parks, views, boating, stormwater questions, and local cleanup work.

History and culture

Hialeah Park makes the city feel rooted

Hialeah Park gives busy Hialeah a nationally recognized landmark tied to Florida racing, resort history, gardens, and flamingos.

Outdoors

Everglades water starts before the park

Everglades National Park protects a huge South Florida wetland system, but the water story reaches well past the park boundary.

Home and property

Coral Gables tree canopy starts at the address

Coral Gables treats trees as part of the city fabric, so pruning, swale trees, private-property removals, and permits need a local check.
