George Merrick Statue

Share: f 𝕏
The George Merrick Statue in Coconut Grove pays tribute to the visionary developer who founded Coral Gables, one of America's first planned cities. Merrick's ambitions in the early twentieth century shaped South Florida's built environment in ways that are still visible in the Mediterranean-revival architecture and tree-lined boulevards of nearby Coral Gables. For history enthusiasts and architecture buffs exploring this part of Miami, the statue provides a moment to reflect on the remarkable story of how a swath of subtropical wilderness became one of the most distinctive urban landscapes in the United States.
