The Royal Caribbean International headquarters at the Port of Miami, A series of biennial reports from the U.S National Research Council have reviewed the progress of CERP the fourth report in the series released in 2012 found that little progress has been made in restoring the core of the remaining Everglades ecosystem; instead most project construction so far has occurred along its periphery the report noted that to reverse ongoing ecosystem declines it will be necessary to expedite restoration projects that target the central Everglades and to improve both the quality and quantity of the water in the ecosystem to better understand the potential implications of the current slow pace of progress the report assessed the current status of ten Everglades ecosystem attributes including phosphorus loads peat depth and populations of snail kites birds of prey that are endangered in South Florida Most attributes received grades ranging from C (degraded) to D (significantly degraded) but the snail kite received a grade of F (near irreversible damage) the report also assessed the future trajectory of each ecosystem attribute under three restoration scenarios: improved water quality improved hydrology and improvements to both water quality and hydrology which helped highlight the urgency of restoration actions to benefit a wide range of ecosystem attributes and demonstrate the cost of inaction Overall the report concluded that substantial near-term progress to address both water quality and hydrology in the central Everglades is needed to reverse ongoing degradation before it is too late, The Miami area was better known as "Biscayne Bay Country" in the early years of its growth the few published accounts from that period describe the area as a wilderness that held much promise the area was also characterized as "one of the finest building sites in Florida" After the Great Freeze of 1894 the crops of the Miami area were the only ones in Florida that survived Julia Tuttle a local landowner convinced Henry Flagler a railroad tycoon to expand his Florida East Coast Railway to Miami on July 28 1896 Miami was officially incorporated as a city with a population of just over 300. . .
