Directions to the Friends Meeting House

The Friends Meeting House is located at 1185 Sunset Drive (SW 72nd Street).

If you are coming by car, take South Dixie Highway (U.S. 1), turn south on Red Road (SW 57th Avenue), turn east (left) on Sunset Drive (SW 72nd Street). The Meeting House is on the northeast corner at the second traffic light. The cross street is Trionfo or 52nd Avenue. The meeting house is across the street from Sunset Elementary School.

If you are using public transportation, take Metrorail to the South Miami Station which is just north of Sunset Drive. The Route 37 Metro Bus leaves the South Miami station and travels east on Sunset Drive (after a short trip through South Miami). It is about a 7 minute bus ride to the door. It is about 1 km (0.6 miles). If you choose to walk east on Sunset, cross U.S. 1 at the intersection just south of the Metrorail station.
