Did you know that all 10 miles of The Underline are now open?
Stretching 10 miles from the Miami River in Brickell to Dadeland, The Underline is a linear park, urban trail and public art destination beneath Miami's Metrorail. For decades, the land under the tracks sat empty. Today it is 120 acres of parkland in the heart of our city, connecting four cities and 14 neighborhoods and bringing people together through mobility, health, culture and opportunity.
The Underline welcomes more than 3 million visits a year. We have planted nearly 1 million plants and trees, creating new habitat and shade in Miami's urban core. And 86% of our programming is free to the public, from fitness classes and walking clubs to concerts, Family Days, art installations and markets. Our workforce programs train the next generation of park stewards and green leaders.
The vision is real. Now we need your help to keep it beautiful, safe, free and full of life. Your gift this Give Miami Day supports the daily care of the park, from maintenance and safety to horticulture, and keeps our programs free for everyone who visits.
This year, you can put your name on The Underline. Our new Pillars of Giving program launches on Give Miami Day. Give $500, $1,000 or $2,500 and your name will be painted on a leaf on an Underline column, on display for five years.
Early giving opens November 14 and runs through Give Miami Day on November 19. Help us reach our $180,000 goal and shape the future of The Underline.
