Historic planned community inspired by Mediterranean architecture, landscaping
A historic coral rock arch marks the beginning of Granada, one of the city of Coral Gables’ first neighborhoods. Beyond the arch sit Spanish Revival-style villas donning roofs made with thick terracotta tiles and facades covered in vibrant stucco. Yards are filled with lush tropical greenery, and stately palm and banyan trees arch over narrow streets. When George E. Merrick began developing the city in the 1920s, his vision was to create a place that felt like it belonged along the shores of the Mediterranean Sea. Granada is a prime example of how that vision was achieved. And because the city followed the “City Beautiful Movement,” a style of urban planning that emphasizes aesthetically beautiful landscaping and architecture, and it adopted strict zoning laws, which have helped it maintain its original character.
A Coral Arch can be found on Granada Blvd once entering Coral Gables.
Many of the Granada single family homes spawn mediterranean style details.
