Die Idee zu diesem Denkmal entstand im Jahre 1984 in einer Gruppe Holocaustüberlebender, die sich in Miami niedergelassen hatten. Diese Idee wurde schließlich in die Tat umgesetzt, und das dramatische, dauernde Andenken wurde erstmals 1990 der Öffentlichkeit zugänglich gemacht. Es ist als ernste Mahnung an die Verbrechen gegen die Menschlichkeit gedacht und soll mithelfen, Völkermorde dieser Art in der Zukunft zu vermeiden. Die Skulptur der Liebe und des Schmerzes ist der Mittelpunkt auf diesem Gelände. Mit tausenden von Namen, die in den schwarzen Granitblock eingraviert sind, hinterlässt es einen überwältigenden Eindruck. Dieses wahrhaft erinnerungswürdige Erlebnis ist nur einige Häuserblocks vom Miami Beach Convention Center entfernt zu finden.
Der Eintritt ist frei.

This massive park was Hugh Taylor Birch's donation to the state of Florida. Birch came to Florida in the latter part of the 19th Century and promptly fell in love with the area. He eventually purchased more than three miles of oceanfront property in the little town of Fort Lauderdale. More than a century later, Fort Lauderdale is now a busy metropolis, and Birch's land thrives as a wildlife preserve and botanical wonderland. Several animal and plant species have found a safe home here. Visitors are free to hike or bike the designated trails, canoe around the lagoon, take a dip in the ocean and visit Birch's home. Excellent camping facilities can also be availed here.
