A gateway for the City of Miami Beach and a shared amenity for all to enjoy. West 8 collaborated closely with ArchitectonicaGEO and the client group of the Five Park Development on the envisioning of a verdant gathering spot for the entire community to benefit.
Transforming through topography, Canopy Park includes a performing landscape of undulating contours, a rocky flood protection basin and a robust native planting palette.
An Oasis that stitches the community together
A diverse series of outdoor rooms, framed with foliage and programmed for all generations to enjoy.
Ecological Sublime - rather than broad swaths of a single plant species, the park’s wide range of species maximizes diversity and resiliency and provides opportunities to test the viability of species that are rarely highlighted in urban landscapes.
