The Florida land boom of the 1920s was Florida's first real estate bubble which burst in 1925 the land boom left behind entire new cities such as Coral Gables Hialeah Miami Springs Opa-locka Miami Shores and Hollywood it also left behind the remains of failed development projects such as Aladdin City in south Miami-Dade County Fulford-by-the-Sea in what is now North Miami Beach Miami's Isola di Lolando in north Biscayne Bay Boca Raton as it had originally been planned and Palm Beach Ocean just north of Palm Beach the land boom shaped Florida's future for decades and created entire new cities out of the Everglades land that remain today the story includes many parallels to the real estate boom of the 2000s including the forces of outside speculators easy credit access for buyers and rapidly appreciating property values, 2.3 Means of businesses Main article: Comprehensive Everglades Restoration Plan, A Metrorail train approaching Government Center Public transportation is a vital part of Downtown life. Transportation A series of biennial reports from the U.S National Research Council have reviewed the progress of CERP the fourth report in the series released in 2012 found that little progress has been made in restoring the core of the remaining Everglades ecosystem; instead most project construction so far has occurred along its periphery the report noted that to reverse ongoing ecosystem declines it will be necessary to expedite restoration projects that target the central Everglades and to improve both the quality and quantity of the water in the ecosystem to better understand the potential implications of the current slow pace of progress the report assessed the current status of ten Everglades ecosystem attributes including phosphorus loads peat depth and populations of snail kites birds of prey that are endangered in South Florida Most attributes received grades ranging from C (degraded) to D (significantly degraded) but the snail kite received a grade of F (near irreversible damage) the report also assessed the future trajectory of each ecosystem attribute under three restoration scenarios: improved water quality improved hydrology and improvements to both water quality and hydrology which helped highlight the urgency of restoration actions to benefit a wide range of ecosystem attributes and demonstrate the cost of inaction Overall the report concluded that substantial near-term progress to address both water quality and hydrology in the central Everglades is needed to reverse ongoing degradation before it is too late!
