La Pequeña Habana, 'Little Havana' got its name from Cuban influx between the late 1950's and early 1970's.
The neighborhood lies immediately west of Downtown Miami, originally being a lower-middle-class Southern and primarily Jewish community.
Subsequent waves of immigration in the 80's expanded the Cuban cultural landscape of the area, now including immigrants from all over Latin American countries.
