What Does This Abandoned Train Station Look Like Now ?

This is the old historic train station on the CSX Homestead Subdivision that Hurricane Andrew destroyed in Miami, Florida on August 24, 1992 (A day that will live in infamy).
It was built next to the SW 147th Ave railroad crossing, but I'm not certain of the year. I know the tracks were built in 1926 by Seaboard Air Line to bring passenger trains to the area. It even connected with the Miami Extension of the FEC Overseas Railway that ran parallel to US 1 en route to the Florida Keys and Key West just a few miles South of here. This line was last used in 2016 for storage and officially abandoned in 2019, most of the signals on the crossings have been removed along with the gates too.
