Friends of Old Seven

Friends of Old Seven We are an all-volunteer non-profit with one goal: to create a private/public partnership to save, restore, enhance and maintain the Old Seven Mile Bridge.

The Old Seven Mile Bridge – 100 + years old, 2.2 miles long, and traversing what is considered to be the most beautiful section of the Florida Overseas Highway (a 120 mile stretch between Miami and Key West – America’s newest National Scenic Corridor route) – needs to be rebuilt or significantly renovated. Costs for such range from $10 to $25 million, depending upon design and life projections for a new span.
