Wag! Walkers know Magnolia Park
Magnolia Park is located in the upper east side of Miami and
is a blend of older single-family homes and apartment complexes. Platted
initially back in 1916, a couple of the houses here are over 100 years old! The
area has undergone several zoning changes and, as of 2016, neighbors were
fighting yet another zoning change. On the west side of Biscayne Blvd., there are several places to grab a bite to eat along with a fabulous selection
of stores to shop in. There are three parks to walk your dog in, all of which
sit on the shore of the Intracoastal Waterway.
The climate here is delightful
with January lows in the 60s and summer highs in the 90s. There are very few
days that you can't take Ralph for a walk unless you pick a time when it is
raining and, even then, you can still go walking as long as you take an
umbrella!
What is the terrain like in Magnolia Park?
For a neighborhood that consists mainly of multi-family
housing, there is a fair amount of grass for you and Ralph to wander around on.
The ground here is quite flat with sidewalks to walk on if you prefer
pavement. However, you must keep in mind that the pavement will get far too hot
for Ralph's feet in the summer months as it can easily reach 145°F when the
ambient temperature is only in the mid-to-upper 80s.
When you stop to think
that you can fry an egg at 120°F, imagine how much damage pavement at 145°F can
do to the delicate pads on the bottom of poor Ralph's paws! When the temperatures reach this point, be sure to keep Ralph
on the grass between the buildings or take them over to one of the three parks
along the waterway which can be a precious relief from the pavement and concrete.
How many greenways are there in Magnolia Park?
Those who live in Magnolia Park have the advantage of plenty
of green space to walk their dogs in. Not only are there a couple of
large undeveloped areas of grass, but there are two parks on the north side of
I-19.
Albert Pallot Park offers 400 feet of waterfront access. There
may not much in the way of facilities, but there is plenty of grass for you and
Ralph to run around on. Just to the south is Stearns Park. This one is much harder to get to unless you are lucky enough to live off of NE 6th Ave. and NE 37th St. Then you
don’t have to take your life and Ralph's in your hands trying to dash across
the Julia Tuttle Causeway.
Finally, there is Martell Park, the only designated
dog park on the water in Miami. However, there are no sources of fresh water
here and no other amenities beyond a bench or two.
