In 1925, Adelaide Bindley Davidson sold her home to real estate investor Alfred J. Richey and his wife Dorothy, who acquired the Bindley Farm as part of a purchase and began developing the land into the residential community now known as Schenley Park.

Long before Schenley Park became the charming residential community we know today, the land had a very different purpose. In the early 20th century, Bindley purchased 120 acres of farmland along Red Road, near Coral Way, to provide fresh fruits, vegetables, and dairy products for his home.

If you’re experiencing a power issue or have noticed a streetlight out in Schenley Park, the best thing you can do is report it directly to Florida Power & Light (FPL).

It was recently announced that Commissioner Kevin Marino Cabrera has been officially confirmed as the United States Ambassador to the Republic of Panama. This new role marks a significant transition and a notable moment for our community.

We’re thrilled to announce that the Tree Canopy Project is well underway—and the trees are now in the ground!

Originally opened in 1961 as Variety Children’s Hospital, the facility was established to provide top-tier healthcare for children. Over the decades, it evolved and expanded, becoming what we now know as Nicklaus Children’s Hospital, a renowned leader in pediatric care serving families not just from Miami but across the globe.

Nestled along the charming Devonshire Boulevard in Schenley Park are our beloved Free Little Libraries—community book-sharing boxes where neighbors can take a book or leave a book for others to enjoy.

Duffy's Tavern, our beloved neighborhood sports bar, never officially closed its doors and is now fully back in business!

Our tree canopy project is moving forward, and we’re thrilled to share an update!

We’re excited to share an update on the FPL project to improve electric reliability in Schenley Park by undergrounding the neighborhood power lines!
