Biscayne Park was developed in the 1920s by Arthur Griffing and annexed into the city of Miami in 1925.[5] With the arrival of the Great Depression, Miami gave up its jurisdiction, and Biscayne Park was incorporated as its own town in 1931.[5] In 1933, the town decided to become a village, and changed its name to the Village of Biscayne Park.
