Background
Aleyda Mas Park is a 5-acre property located at 11855 SW 60th Avenue purchased by the Village in January 2024. The Village Council approved the purchase of the property during the 2023 November Council Meeting after discussing the possibility of acquiring property to use as a nature-and-recreation park during seven Council meetings, with the first being during the 2023 April Council meeting. The property will fulfill the Village Council’s commitment to having a green space within one mile or a 10-to-15-minute walk of every resident.
The property has exotic trees and plants, trails, a lagoon, and a large resort-like house. The Village plans to create a nature-and-recreation park and indoor facility with its new acquisition. The property is horticulturally significant because it was originally owned by the Montgomery family, who are popularly known as the founders of Fairchild Gardens.
