CORAL GABLES, FL
CORAL GABLES, FL
George Merrick was a visionary. He imagined a city unlike any other, then set out to make that vision real. With grand boulevards, Mediterranean-inspired architecture, lush landscapes and a commitment to beauty at every turn, he created more than a place to live. He created a sense of place.
More than a century later, that vision still defines Coral Gables. But a great city is about more than beautiful streets and remarkable architecture. It is about the people who bring it to life. The restaurants that become traditions. The businesses families return to year after year. The professionals whose reputations are built on trust. The artists, designers, entrepreneurs and community leaders who keep the city moving forward while respecting what makes it special.
That is what the Best of Coral Gables is here to celebrate.
The Coral Gables Gazette has created this guide to recognize the businesses and people who contribute to the character, energy and excellence of the City Beautiful. Our editors have selected the nominees. Now, we’re turning to the people who know Coral Gables best to help determine who deserves to be recognized as the best. The best isn’t simply about being the biggest or the newest. It’s about excellence. It’s about reputation. It’s about the places people recommend, the businesses they return to and the people they trust.
This is your chance to celebrate them.
