👍👍 A little oasis in a concrete jungle. A litteral hole in the ground but very charming green area right off busy Coral Way and 57th Avenue in SW Miami. People often mention park, neighborhood, great, Coral,

    It's a clean, small, nicely kept park. There are several different kinds of trees: banyan, papaya, nispero, diff kinds of palm. It's an excellent place to have a picnic. You can't see the main road bc the park itself is like a litte valley, plus the limestone and trees make a good buffer.

    Schenley Park is located in the Schenley Miami neighborhood consisting of 300 acres of mostly homes. The neighborhood is framed by Red Road to the east, Coral Way to the north, 63rd Avenue to the west, and the Coral Gables Canal to the south. You can find it near the historic Biltmore Hotel in Coral Gables. At the entrance to the neighborhood is Wayside Park with it's dramatic medieval inspired towers. Also located in this neighborhood is the world-renowned Nicklaus Children's Hospital formerly known as Miami Children's Hospital, nationally ranked as one of the top Children's Hospitals in the nation by US News and World Report. This park is an urban open space, designated sites in the city which are over 0.1 acre and typically contain landscaped areas but no facilities or other improvements. These open spaces are places in Coral Gables that are designed to be aesthetically pleasing or to serve as a buffer to more congested areas. Typically they are used to contain some kind on monument, seating, or walkways. According to George Merrick who designed and built Coral Gables in the 1920's neighborhood parks were meant to be a "great garden set with houses, a park where all the people can live to the best of their capacities" Schenley Park is located in a depression in the ground. There are large ficus trees and oolite limestone boulders. There is no designated parking spaces. If you live in the neighborhood this park is good for walking your dog, exercising, or a picnic. However if you want to take some really great pictures head a short distance down the road to the fairytale towers of Wayside Park.

    This park is basically a large hole with trees, roots, large rocks, and many 🗑 trash cans.

    The grass in the park is beautiful! But if you go with children you have to be careful because there is too much glass waste everywhere.
