brickell-real-estate
As if Paraiso Bay and SLS Brickell are not enough, another Brickell project is on the horizon from Jorge Perez and the Related Group.  Brickell Heights is a new project that will be home to two 49-story towers with a total of 690 units and 85,000 square feet of retail space.  And, unlike anything else we have ever seen, the parking garage will be adorned with a mural from artist Fabian Bruno.  This new Brickell condominium consists of one, two, three and four-bedroom units with penthouse units on the upper level floors.

Location of Brickell Heights
Brickell Heights will be situated on a prime piece of property that is positioned between Mary Brickell Village and Brickell City Centre.  Not only is it close to everything in Brickell, it is within a short walk to Biscayne Bay.

Holiday Shopping in The Gables and Coconut Grove

Many residents live in the Coral Gables and Coconut Grove areas because of the luxury atmosphere that exists throughout the beautiful neighborhoods and Coral Gables condominiums.  One of the most appealing qualities of Coral Gables is how “walkable” it is.  So many residents and visitors love to walk along the Miracle Mile or to the Village at Merrick Park. 

As we head into the holidays, Coral Gables and Coconut Grove are very popular places for shopping, dining and fun.  Following are the best venues for shopping and fun throughout the holidays:

CocoWalk
Shops, restaurants and exciting entertainment await visitors to CocoWalk.  As an upscale open-air shopping center, CocoWalk has so much to make it easy to spend a day or two (or three) shopping and enjoying all the sights.  No matter who is on your Christmas list, you can find the best presents at any of the shops at CocoWalk.  A nice benefit of shopping at CocoWalk is that you can shop at national retailers like the Gap and Victoria’s Secret as well as unique local shops such as Guayabera World.  Additionally, there are so many restaurants from which to eat while shopping or get gift certificates for those “hard to buy for” friends and family members.  Simply walking through the shopping center instills the spirit of the holidays into everyone there.  For area residents and guests, CocoWalk is located in a very cool area of South Florida that is close to many of the nicest Coconut Grove condominiums and makes shopping during the holidays that much more fun.

Miracle Mile
The Miracle Mile is all about shopping and dining as well as arts and culture.  It is one of our favorite places to go even if it is just want to window shop and people watch.  This high-end district is what makes Coral Gables what it is.  During the holidays, there are always events happening at different shops as well as outside along the street.  The Miracle Mile is full of local shops that cater to those who demand a high level of quality and customer service and are willing to pay for it.  To make the season more fun, the shops in Downtown Coral Gables and along the Miracle Mile are taking their decorating to a whole new level with a contest to see which business is the best decorated.  Everyone is invited to participate as a judge to determine the best decorated store front.  Along with selecting the winning business, those who judge are registered to win a $100 Downtown Gables gift certificate.  From exclusive spas and salons to haute couture boutiques to playhouse theatres and elegant cafes and restaurants, there is tons of excitement during the holidays on the most beloved street in all of Coral Gables.
