President-elect Donald Trump was honored Tuesday with a street renamed after him in Miami-Dade County, a Democratic stronghold that he flipped by double-digits in the 2024 election.
Palm Avenue, one of the central avenues in the city of Hialeah, which is nearly three-quarters Cuban and Cuban-American, will now be President Donald J. Trump Avenue.
Trump personally signed one of the street signs when he was down in the Sunshine State attending the memorial service of the Palm Beach Sheriff’s Office Motor Deputies.
Hialeah has one of the largest Hispanic populations per capita in the US, and the move comes after Trump won Florida by a landslide against Vice President Kamala Harris, convincing a large margin of Hispanic voters to go Republican.
“Miami-Dade County strongly supported President Trump during the election, and this designation serves as a lasting tribute to his leadership and vision for our nation,” Miami-Dade County Commissioner Kevin Marino said on X.
