Liberty Caffe In Coral Gables – Last Week’s Where’s J Wo Answer
The entrance to the Liberty Caffe, located in the historic Country Club of Coral Gables, is last week’s Where’s J Wo answer.
The Country Club, recently restored by the Liberty Group out of Toronto, was originally the Merrick family’s vegetable garden. Designed by Hampton and Reimert, it was the first public building in Coral Gables. When it opened on January 15, 1923, it rapidly became an important part of the social scene as well as in promoting Coral Gables as a place to buy real estate. It was often used by George Merrick to entertain prospective buyers for his single family homes.

Miami Real Estate: More Signs the Market is Improving
New Construction
As I drive around town, I am seeing a lot more new construction. This new single family home is going up in north Gables. I have seen other ones being built in South Miami and Pinecrest as well.
In addition to the new construction I have been seeing many remodeling projects. Significant additions are being added on to many existing homes.
All of this bodes well for the overall market. Are you remodeling or adding on to your house?
