Coral Gables

Upscale and quietly elegant Coral Gables carefully guards its reputation as "The City Beautiful" with strictly enforced zoning codes and architectural guidelines. Downtown is centered on the stretch of Coral Way known as Miracle Mile, featuring noted signature restaurants, specialty shops, boutiques and art galleries. Spanish Mediterranean-style prevails for private homes and public buildings, but ornate plazas and fountains also lead to some original "villages" of houses in Chinese, Colonial, French, Dutch and South African styles. At the eastern of Coral Gables, the exclusive waterfront neighborhoods of Cocoplum and Gables Estates are noted fro their impressive estate homes. There are some established luxury condominium buildings close to downtown where some new towers, mid-rises and apartment buildings are going up. Located in the heart of Coral Gables, the University of Miami is one of only 29 private research universities in the nation, educating nearly 15,000 students a year from every state and more than 100 countries. The campus is a lush, tropical landscape featuring the Ibis Walking Trail, as well as many other places -concert halls, the theatre, stadiums, a museum, world-class library, student center, and cinema all within reach of the community.
