An aerial rendering of South Miami Hospital\u2019s Healing Garden demonstrates how the Garden will live adjacent to The Underline\u2019s trail, offering lush greenery and a welcoming space for the community to gather.<\/p><\/div>\n

We are excited to share the plans for South Miami Hospital\u2019s Healing Garden coming soon next to the future Underline in South Miami.\u00a0 Located adjacent to the future urban trail in the hospital\u2019s East Tower Building, the idea of the Healing Garden grew from Baptist Health South Florida\u2019s partnership with Friends of The Underline and \u201cwill help to advance our shared goal of promoting health and well-being in South Florida by providing inviting spaces for our community to enjoy.\u00a0 Specifically we hope the Healing Garden at South Miami Hospital will become an urban oasis of peace and tranquility,\u201c says Brian Keeley, president and chief executive officer, Baptist Health South Florida.<\/p>\n

The stone pavement and Oolite benches provide a serene walkway for the community to enjoy carefully selected trees and plants that include native vegetation.<\/p><\/div>\n

The target date for the Garden\u2019s completion is early 2018 with construction taking place this fall.\u00a0 \u201cExpect a lush open, tranquil space with native vegetation that will be open to the public for yoga, educational health programs, or just a moment of peace during your busy day,\u201d says Lincoln Mendez, chief executive officer, South Miami Hospital.<\/p>\n

Improving community health, with a focus on active transportation and fitness programming, is one of the key goals of The Underline. That\u2019s why Friends of The Underline board member Jessi Berrin says, \u201cThe Underline is a game-changer for the South Florida community.\u00a0 By transforming 10-miles of underutilized land below Metrorail into a linear park and urban trail, residents will move more, play more and will be healthier and more connected to community and\u00a0each other.\u201d<\/p>\n
