City of the Week: Homestead

Sorry about the hiatus, but City of the Week is back, and this week, we are spotlighting Homestead, Florida.

Homestead is the second oldest city in Miami-Dade County. It was originally open to "homesteaders" in 1898, and was accessible through a path called the "homesteader's trail" (Do we see a pattern here? ) Between 1904 and 1912, the railroad was built through, and in 1913, the City of Homestead was officially incorporated!

Homestead is nestled between Miami, Biscayne Bay Biscayne National Park - Biscayne National Park (U.S. National Park Service), the Florida Keys and the wonderful Everglades. The average daily temperature is 75 degrees!

You can read all about Homestead right here: City of Homestead - Online

One of the more fascinating attractions in Homestead is the Coral Castle. It is a tribute to one man's enduring and undying love. ::: Welcome to Coral Castle ::: It is truly a remarkable accomplishment!

And don't miss the Alligator Farm while you are there! New Page 1

Homestead is a unique community with small town hospitality and big city amenities!
