Coconut Grove's dense tree canopy and bay breezes keep houses shaded and damp, and leaves and mildew find their way into dryer outlets, door seals and drum folds, so those are cleaned and dried on every visit. ## What Coconut Grove does to a home appliance. Coconut Grove has been continuously inhabited since 1825, when the Cape Florida lighthouse began operating nearby, making it the oldest continuously inhabited neighborhood in Miami. The Barnacle, built in 1891, is the oldest house in Miami-Dade County still standing on its original site. The neighborhood was its own incorporated city from 1919 until Miami annexed it in 1925. Coconut Grove's tropical hardwood hammock and dense tree canopy are heavy enough that residents call it one of Miami's greenest neighborhoods, a canopy that also drops a lot of storm debris after hurricanes.
