Miami Fort Lauderdale, FL, August 16, 2026 —
Miami’s popular linear park, The Underline, has officially opened its first dedicated playground. The new space, named the Nikki Spoelstra Play Forest, is situated near Miami City Hall, offering a new recreational amenity for families in the area.
The opening of the playground was marked by a family-friendly event that featured various activities. This development signifies a further expansion of The Underline, a project transforming the underutilized space beneath Miami’s Metrorail into a vibrant park and transportation corridor.
In addition to the new playground, sections eight and nine of The Underline are now open to the public. These newly accessible areas contribute to the growing footprint of the park, connecting more of the city and providing green space for residents and visitors.
The Nikki Spoelstra Play Forest is designed to be a welcoming environment for children and families. The opening event highlighted the park’s commitment to becoming a comprehensive destination for recreation, art, and community engagement.
