The Key Biscayne Community Center
In October 2004, the grandopening of the Key BiscayneCommunity Center drew a
huge crowd of residents, all hopingto realize the dream of creatingrecreational opportunities for all is-land residents.
Five years later, there was aturnout similar to that of the grandopening during a weekend-long an-niversary celebration that was opento all residents from October 30through November 1, 2009.
In the mid-1990s, residents envi-sioned the facility as a way to fillunmet recreational needs. Then,Parks and Recreation DirectorTodd Hofferberth said, recreationin the Village mostly involved theKey Biscayne Athletic Club’s youthsports programs.
It made sense to have indoor ac-tivity space, including a gymna-sium, and also to provide activitiesfor kids who were not interested insports. Additionally, other parts of
the population needed and de-served a place to “hang out” andrecreate.
In 1996, residents surveyedguests at the annual Village Hal-loween Haunted House, and found“overwhelming support” for theidea.
Three women – Julie Alvarez, agrandmother; Bonnie Cooper, themom of a teen, and Pat Woodson-Weinman, a new parent with a sec-ond child on the way – formed
Citizens for a Community Center.A movement was born, and it
immediately made its mark.With five years of history, both
Community Center staff and theresidents who helped make thebuilding a reality say they’repleased with how far the Villagehas come.
“We have one of the finest com-munity centers in the nation, andthat’s what is most important,”noted Woodson-Weinman.

And Hofferberth needs only to look around him – at the recordturnout of 120 young women for girls volleyball; at the Team KeyAquatics swimmers who frequently win awards; at the young peoplewho crowd in for non-sports programs like homework assistanceand cooking classes – to know that the Community Center is a vitalpart of the Village.
“When the Community Center was developed, it was exactly
that – not a youth center, but for everyone,” Hofferberth re-marked. “One of the bigger successes is we’ve been able to involveall the demographics, and we’re continuing to see what we can doto enhance programming.
“There are so many people that have led to the success of theCommunity Center,” he added. “It is truly the community’s facil-ity, and we’re just the stewards as employees.”

Miami Seaquarium In 1955, Miami Seaquarium opened its doors, the first ma-
rine-life attraction in South Florida. At the time, it was thelargest marine-life attraction in the world. And now, almost 55years later, Miami Seaquarium is the longest operating ocea-narium in the United States.
From 1963-1967, 88 television episodes and two movies star-ring Flipper, a bottlenose dolphin, were filmed at Seaquarium.
The Seaquarium’s Golden Dome, a South Florida landmark,stands 55 feet high, has a diameter of 146 feet and weighs45,000 pounds. World-famous architect Buckminster Fuller,who dedicated the structure in 1960, was the inspiration of thestructure’s geodesic design.
There are still attractions on KeyBiscayne that honor our community’s past.
History &Culture
Under the shade of the Golden Dome, you may see Salty theSea Lion and Harbor Seals perform.

Virginia Key BeachVirginia Key Beach, once accessible only by boat, was estab-
lished in 1945 as the only public beach for the “exclusive use ofNegroes” in Miami-Dade County.
In 1982, the City of Miami closed the park, and it remainedshuttered until the Grand Re-Opening in 2008, after local citi-zens formed the Virginia Key Beach Park Task Force in responseto plans for private development of the property.
The Golden Dome at Miami Seaquarium was dedicated in 1960. World-famous architect Buckminster Fuller was the inspiration for the structure’s geodesic design.

Cape FloridaLighthouse
In 1822, Congress appropriated$8,000 to build Cape Florida Light-house, and added $16,000 in 1824.The 65-foot-tall brick tower with woodsteps was completed in 1825.
On July 23, 1836, a band of Semi-nole Indians attacked the tower. Theassistant lighthouse keeper and hishandyman barricaded themselves in-side the tower and then retreated tothe top after the Indians set fire to the wooden door and the firespread to a 225-gallon tank of oil.
As the flames increased, the two men went out on the ironrailing. The handyman was killed and the assistant keeper wasinjured. In desperation, he threw a keg of powder down thestaircase, destroying what was left of the burning steps.
Thinking the assistant keeper was dead, the Indians set theirsights on the keeper’s cottage and then left. Hearing the explo-sion of the keg of powder, a Naval vessel landed on shore andlater found the assistant keeper.
The threat of further Indian attacks prevented reconstructionof the lighthouse for more than 10 years. The lighthouse re-mained out of service until 1847, when it was rebuilt with ironsteps.
After Florida seceded from the Union in 1861, the lamps andburners were removed from the lighthouse and the center prismwas smashed so it could not be used to help Union soldiers whocontrolled the surrounding waters.
The Cape Florida Lighthouse was repaired after the Civil Warended, but in 1878 it was extinguished again when the offshoreFowey Rocks Lighthouse replaced it.
By the 1920s, the coastline had eroded so much that the light-house, originally 100 feet from shore, stood only 10 feet fromthe water.
Rejected twice as a historic landmark by the Federal Govern-
ment, the lighthouse was finally purchased, along with thesouthern tip of Key Biscayne, by the State of Florida in 1966.The following year the park, which was named Bill Baggs CapeFlorida State Park in honor of newspaper editor Bill Baggs, whospearheaded the campaign to save the lighthouse, was opened.
On July 4, 1978, 100 years after the lighthouse was extin-guished, it was relit. After it was damaged by Hurricane Andrewin 1992, it was rebuilt in time for the Miami Centennial in1996.
Today, park rangers offer guided tours to the top of the light-house. The lighthouse is open Thursday-Monday 10 a.m.-1 p.m.
305-361-5811www.floridastateparks.gov
Underground RailroadBefore the Cape Florida Lighthouse was built, Cape Florida
was a secret meeting place and port for runaway slaves and Semi-nole Blacks. Freedom seekers waited along its shores to ren-dezvous with sea captains or board dugouts for a passage tosafety in the British Bahamas.
Although the lighthouse was built to save lives and ships, itsunflinching light brought an end to this avenue of escape.
In September 2004, Cape Florida was designated as a Na-tional Underground Railroad Network to Freedom site.

The 65-foot-tall Cape Florida Lighthouse was completed in 1825.

Heritage TrailThe Key Biscayne Heritage Trail
is a series of markers from CrandonPark to Bill Baggs Cape FloridaState Park. It follows along paths ofprehistoric Indians and early set-tlers.
Highlights include a protectedfossil reef carbon dated to about 60A.D. Scientists describe the reef as“Key Biscayne’s Petrified Forest.” Itwas formed of ancient roots of theblack mangrove (Avicennia germi-nans).
Another marker points to the for-mer dwellings of Tequesta Indians,who built dwellings prior to the ar-rival of Juan Ponce de Leon in1513. On one site, one of severalfishing camps was discovered byarcheologists in 1992; other sitesrun the length of the CrandonBoulevard median, protected in theArcheological Preservation Zone.
Another site, Hacienda Canaland Basin, was an early landing forwork boats. The canal was dredgedfrom bay to interior to transportplantation goods. Tropical fruits,plants, Hacienda Honey and co-conuts were shipped to local andnorthern markets. Harvest shedsand the "Coconut Husking House"were demolished in the early 1950s,leaving only a remnant basin whichis located on the south side of theKey Biscayne Yacht Club.
In total, the Heritage Trail has 36markers.
