Miracle Mile of Coral Gables (Coral Gables, Florida)

www.shopcoralgables.com/index.cfm
The downtown commercial district, including Miracle Mile, was designed by George Merrick, who could boast that every business in Coral Gables was less than a two-block walk. The area was once serviced by a free trolley that ran down Ponce de Leon Boulevard, the main artery bisecting the business district. The old trolley system was replaced by the popularity of modern automobiles until a new free trolley system was initiated in November 2003. Now, Coral Gables is known as a pedestrian-friendly destination. Located only four miles from Miami International Airport, the "City Beautiful" is home to more than 140 dining establishments and gourmet shops, plus many notable international retailers.
