Since March 27th this subject has been vandalizing the Coral Gables with anti-Semitic graffiti. Today, Coral Gables Police Detectives arrested Benjamin Garcia. Thank you to the Dept. for their hard work. Anti-semitism and vandalism will never be tolerated in our community.

Please witness the exceptional Coral Gables Museum exhibit, SACRED GROUND: THE RISE, FALL & REVIVAL OF LINCOLN MEMORIAL PARK. This exhibit is a selection of documents & objects from the archives of the cemetery, one of Miami’s most historically relevant, yet neglected cemeteries.

“What we have here is systemic failure.” It can’t be any clearer, we have avoided our responsibilities for years in reference to public transportation and now we are paying the consequences. Our County leadership must be held accountable! #halfpennytax #snookered

A warm welcome to Trader Joe's who opened a new location in the City Beautiful at 211 S. Dixie Highway. Choosing Coral Gables as the location for their new store is a testament on how the city is a desirable location to many well-known businesses and corporations.

Great morning in Coral Gables planting mangrove pods. For the next few months, our girls will nurture these pods in preparation for final planting in a designated coastal location in the City. Mangroves protect shorelines from damaging storm & hurricane winds, waves, and floods.

After several decades, I am proud to say that the tradition of cooking a pig on noche buena continues. Nothing makes me happier than to see my daughters spend time with my father. Wishing everyone a Merry Christmas, and may the light of the season bring us all together!
