Urban convenience meets suburban charm
Situated in the heart of Downtown Kendall, Palmetto Tower Apartments offers residents the perfect blend of urban amenities and suburban tranquility. This vibrant neighborhood is a hub of activity, with a wealth of shopping, dining, and entertainment options just steps away.
At the center of it all is Dadeland Mall, a sprawling shopping center less than a mile from the building. This retail haven houses over 180 stores, ranging from high-end fashion boutiques to popular chain retailers. The mall is also home to a variety of dining options, including the celebrity chef-owned Chicken Guy!
For everyday necessities, residents have access to several supermarkets. Publix Super Market at Dadeland is approximately a mile away, offering a wide selection of groceries and a reputable deli. For those who prefer organic and natural products, Whole Foods Market is also within a similar distance.
The neighborhood boasts an array of dining options to suit every palate. From the Cuban flavors at Rinconcito Dadeland Miami to the gourmet subs at Jersey Mike's, residents are spoiled for choice. For a quick bite, popular fast-food chains like Chick-fil-A and Five Guys are conveniently located nearby.
Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate the proximity to several parks. Flagler Grove Park, just a mile away, offers soccer fields, playgrounds, and ample green space for recreation. Continental Park, slightly further but still within easy reach, provides tennis courts, picnic areas, and walking trails for those seeking a more diverse outdoor experience.

Kenwood K-8 Center, rated B+ by Niche, is just a short walk from Palmetto Tower, offering education from pre-kindergarten through middle school.

The Metrorail provides a direct link to downtown Miami, making it an excellent option for commuters working in the city center.

Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
