East Everglades Closures. The Tower Tract lies within #422. Access is via a single lane paved road east of SW 237th Ave. The road is currently gated. At the end of the road is the collapsing shell of a former building. There are walls but no roof. The area was once used to manage a large aerial tower that extended several hundred feet into the air. The tower was destroyed/damaged during Hurricane Andrew in 1992. Large sections of the tower, building and debris remain on the ground, posing a significant safety hazard.
