District 2 Commissioner Damian Pardo and the City of Miami’s Office of Capital Improvements (OCI) on Dec. 4 broke ground on the long-awaited Morningside Park Improvement Project.
After years of planning and community discussions, the Morningside Park Improvement Project officially is moving forward, marking a significant step toward enhancing one of District 2’s most cherished green spaces.
“As a proud resident of the Morningside neighborhood since 1999, I’m thrilled to see this long-awaited project finally moving forward. This is the first major park renovation in more than a quarter of a century,” Commissioner Pardo said. “This park is a jewel in our community, and these improvements will ensure it remains a resilient and welcoming space for all of us to enjoy. While change can be challenging for some, we are confident these efforts will lead to a brighter future for generations to come in Morningside and Miami.”
The project will deliver essential upgrades in two phases:
Phase I (Eastern Shoreline): New seawall, baywalk, trails, solar-powered lighting, enhanced park amenities, landscaping, and upgrades to the boat ramp area.
• Phase II (Western Shoreline): Drainage improvements and additional landscaping.
This long-anticipated initiative will improve park accessibility, protect the shoreline, and create a welcoming environment for residents and visitors to enjoy for years to come. While construction temporarily limits access to the shoreline area, the park’s western side will remain open.
For more information and updates on the project, contact Commissioner Pardo’s office at 305-250-5333 or send email to District2@miamigov.com.
