From Downtown Miami and Brickell to Coconut Grove and South Miami as well as a quick trip to the airport, the Metrorail offers one easy ride to get you where you need to go. There are two distinct rail lines that depart from the Dadeland South station on US1. The Orange line ends at Miami International Airport and back. The Green line runs further up north with connections to the Tri-rail and Virgin MiamiCentral as you can see in Miami subway map. There are stops along each route at many of Miami hotspots such as Coconut Grove, Vizcaya Museum & Gardens, Brickell, the Lyric Theater, Hialeah and more. There is also a Downtown Express line that leaves twice in the mornings and twice in the afternoons with select stops from Dadeland South to Government Center and back. Stops are about one mile apart and handicap accessible.

 

The border between Downtown Miami and Overtown negatively affects the later in a profound way and the overall prosperity of the city has failed to cross into Overtown as its shown in Miami subway map. Activating this edge offers an opportunity to better link Overtown with the surrounding city. Giving better access to transit and a safe pedestrian path over the train tracks will create more activity in the area. Linking the two major parks in the area with a scenic and cool path through the site offers a variety of public spaces for all, a rarity in a city with few quality public spaces outside of the its beaches. Around all of these spaces are retail, restaurants and offices that support the local and up-and-coming business in smaller and more affordable space.
