Hialeah

At the heart of Miami-Dade County lies a city so intricate in its making, so serene in its ambience and so mesmerizing in its beauty, that it has become a hub for the elite. Lying a mere twenty minutes away from every other area in the county, it first came to be associated with the slogan ‘All ways lead to Hialeah’ – a phrase that’s still relevant today. Once the land was home to the Tequestas and Seminole Indians, but later on the native tribes vanished. For the most part of its history it remained undeveloped, until Glenn Curtiss and James H. Bright, one of the first settlers in the land, saw potential for development in 1921. From then on, the region experienced massive growth until it finally earned its recognition as a city in 1925.

The rise and fall of Hialeah:

Back in the 1920s, Hialeah was visualized as a place for the elite and true to that vision, the city’s infamous racetracks and its scenic locales that made production of stunning silent pictures a possibility earned it widespread recognition. From the way the city was progressing, it seemed like nothing could go wrong – but it did. In 1926, the Great Hurricane struck the region, destabilizing everything built and threatening to wipe out the city – but it didn’t! The resilience of the community was unshakeable, and Hialeah rose again from the ashes of its destruction and managed to regain its balance.

Hurricane Irma: Sewage-laden flood water

In 2017, Hurricane Irma arrived, and it spared no city in South Florida, not even Hialeah. The high-speed winds ripped off roofs, uprooted trees and caused massive flooding in the low-lying areas. But apart from that, the city had its own share of problems. One of the sewage pumping station had lost power during the event, and it couldn’t be fixed. Sewage mixed with the flood waters, sending bacteria-ridden waters into every home and office, which made a few residences inhabitable. However, thanks to the laudable efforts by a few damage restoration companies like Hialeah Emergency Restoration, things quickly got back to normalcy.
