Historic Miracle Mile, Coral Gables’ main thoroughfare, is lined with upscale boutiques, galleries, and sidewalk cafes, and the surrounding blocks are home to some of Miami’s most highly regarded restaurants. Nearby, even more, shopping awaits at the popular Shops at Merrick Park. Coral Gables’ downtown is also a busy financial hub, with many international corporations headquartered here, adding cultural diversity to the neighborhood’s fascinating mix of “old meets new.” There’s an eclectic mix of real estate options in Coral Gables, too.
