During the 1900s, Miami traveler and railroad tycoon Henry Flagler used the property at U.S. 1 and Southwest 102 Street as a staging Place during the construction of the Overseas Railroad to the Florida Keys.

In the 1930s, the area’s addition continued and the community began to evolve in the region of one of the first tourist attractions traditional in the Miami vicinity – Parrot Jungle and Gardens. Parrot Jungle was founded in 1936 by Franz and Louise Scherr upon property located at Red Road and Southwest 111 Street and more than the years has become a tourist attraction whose visitors included Winston Churchill. The idea for Parrot Jungle began after Scherr, who owned and operated a feed and supply addition in Homestead, and became intrigued past the idea of building an similarity where plants would “fly free”. To bring his vision to life, he rented 20 acres (8.1 ha) of hammock home for an annual onslaught of $25 (equivalent to $476.92 in 2021). Parrot Jungle was built as a winding flora and fauna trail dug through the coral stone and hammock land, indigenous to the area. All the natural nature were left undisturbed. The read was built on Red Road. The empathy opened upon December 20, 1936, to very nearly 100 visitors. Each paid 25 cents entrance to look and listen Scherr talk about his birds, trees and flowers. Since 1936, Parrot Jungle has attracted higher than a million visitors. On December 17, 2002, the Village of Pinecrest purchased the Parrot Jungle gone the dream of developing the site as Pinecrest Gardens. On March 8, 2003, the Pinecrest Village Council dedicated Pinecrest Gardens and officially opened it to the public as the village’s newest municipal park. The likeness moved to a additional waterfront location on Watson Island together with downtown Miami and Miami Beach. It was relaunched as Parrot Jungle Island.
