Trapp Homestead, Historic masonry house in Coconut Grove, Miami, Florida.
The stone house at 2521 South Bayshore Drive features oolitic limestone walls and salvaged timber beams from local shipwrecks.
Caleb Trapp and his son Harlan constructed this residence in 1887, establishing it as the first permanent masonry structure in Miami-Dade County.
The property became a center for education when Mrs. Trapp administered the first teachers' test for the local public school system.
Visitors can access the National Register of Historic Places site at the intersection of South Bayshore Drive and Tigertail Avenue.
The Trapp family developed and distributed the 'Trapp Avocado' variety by boat to early Miami hotels from their homestead grounds.
