Seven-point-eight acres of tranquility. That’s what awaits you here in Simpson Park. Nestled between the bustling neighborhoods of Brickell and The Roads, Simpson Park, officially known as Simpson Park Hammock, is a vibrant escape from the urban jungle. This park has a story to tell, a story that whispers of Miami’s past, a past where this very spot was part of the sprawling Brickell Hammock. Imagine a time when this lush greenery stretched all the way from the Miami River to Coconut Grove. Simpson Park stands as a living testament to that era. You see, in 1913, a group of forward-thinking individuals, recognizing the ecological importance of this land, came together to protect it. They christened it Jungle Park, a fitting name considering its wild beauty. The park underwent a name change in 1927, becoming a tribute to Charles Torrey Simpson, a renowned Miami botanist and conservationist. His legacy lives on in every leaf and flower that graces this sanctuary. Today, Simpson Park stands as a haven for biodiversity, home to a stunning array of plant and animal life. It’s hard to believe that amidst the towering skyscrapers and bustling streets, this pocket of untouched nature still exists.
