Seybold Canal is a waterway in Miami, Florida, that serves as a significant geographic boundary for construction and fire safety regulations under the 1935-miami-dade-building-code. It defines portions of Fire Zone No. 1 and specific street alignment restrictions.

According to the code, the boundary of Fire Zone 1 extends west along the center lines of various blocks to the “East Channel line of Seybold Canal” 1935-Miami-Dade-Building-Code_p65_84(p. 81). The boundary then proceeds south along this channel line to the North Channel Line of the miami-river 1935-Miami-Dade-Building-Code_p65_84(p. 83). This designation places properties adjacent to the canal within the strictest construction and fire safety regulations of the city, as defined in fire-zones.

Additionally, the canal serves as a starting point for the boundary description of N. W. 7th Avenue. The code specifies that the boundary begins at the present City Fire Limits in Lot 10, Block 14, and the “East line of Seybold Canal” 1935-Miami-Dade-Building-Code_p85_104(p. 90). From there, the boundary moves north along the east side of the canal to the Northwest corner of Lot 25, Block 11, Spring Garden Subdivision 1935-Miami-Dade-Building-Code_p85_104(p. 90).
