Pinecrest Gardens
This scenic property just south of downtown Miami was at one time an oasis for tropical birds and a getaway for tourists known as “Parrot Jungle”. Founded in 1936, Parrot Jungle was home to animal attractions, walkways, and exotic landscape architecture. The city of Pinecrest, FL purchased the property and renamed it Pinecrest Gardens when Parrot Jungle and its animal attractions moved to another site. TGA Design was hired by the city of Pinecrest, FL to create a new wayfinding and identity program for the property. The wide variety of colorful native plants throughout the property served as inspiration for the signage design. Parrot Jungle/Pinecrest Gardens is listed in the National Register for its unique landscape architecture, building architecture, and place in Florida’s tourism and recreation/entertainment history.
