Morningside

Morningside is a historic residential neighborhood located in Miami’s Upper Eastside. It overlooks Biscayne Bay and offers stunning views of the bay as well as convenient access to anywhere in Miami. The district was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1992 as the Bay Shore Historic District. Morningside is significant to the history of architecture, landscape architecture, and community development in Miami. It contains a wealth of Mediterranean, Art Deco, and vernacular style houses that reflect the diversity and direction of architectural design during the 1920s and 1930s. Morningside is one of Miami's best planned subdivisions. It is a quiet neighborhood featuring wide, tree-lined boulevards that are ideal for strollers, and contribute to the character of the area. Amenities in Morningside include a guarded gate, Waterfront Park, tennis courts, a kid’s play area and a pool. Morningside is located just a few miles from UM Medical Center and only six minutes from the beach. The design district is also nearby, offering wonderful shopping opportunities. If you're looking for an off-the-beaten-path park for a picnic, the Morningside Park is quiet, homey, and provides a beautiful and serene view without the hullabaloo of some of the more tourist heavy areas.
