South Florida has a few more cars, but they won’t be adding to traffic or lengthening anyone’s commute.

A group that is pioneering underwater sculpture parks as a way to create man-made coral reefs has deployed its first installation off Miami Beach.

Last month, crews lowered 22 life-sized, marine-grade concrete cars into the ocean, several hundred feet off South Beach.

The car sculptures, commissioned by the nonprofit group REEFLINE, will soon be seeded with 2,200 native corals that have been grown in a nearby Miami lab.

The project is partially funded by a $5 million city of Miami Beach bond, but the group is trying to raise $40 million to extend the potentially 11-phase project along the full 7-mile length of coastline.
