Inside Coral Gables' Historic Mansions: Architecture Tour

Coral Gables stands as a living testament to the vision of developer George Merrick, who in the 1920s dreamed of creating a Mediterranean paradise in South Florida.

The Venetian Pool, carved from a coral rock quarry in 1924, remains one of the most beautiful public swimming pools in the world.

The Biltmore Hotel, a National Historic Landmark, continues to anchor the neighborhood's grandeur with its 315-foot tower modeled after the Giralda in Seville.
