Notes
James Bright of the Curtiss-Bright company, started building the Hialeah Golf Course in 1922 under the plans of golf architects Langford & Moreau and O.S. Baker and by 1923, 9 holes were completed and the golf course was opened.
The group from Miami called the Miami Coconuts were instrumental in getting the City of Miami, its first municipal golf course. The 9-hole golf course was included in a deal that included a water reservation and was dontated to the City of Miami in 1924 with the provision that it remain a golf course forever. Glenn Curtiss of the Curtiss-Bright company offered to finance the entire 18-hole construction. The 18-hole golf course called the Miami-Hialeah Municipal Golf Course opened in 1924.
