The Architecture in the Coral Way neighborhoods
reflects the early Twentieth Century. Some of the oldest
sections contain a mixture of Spanish Mission and
Bungalow homes of the 1920’s, along with the Art Deco
style from the 1930’s and the modest post World War II
dwellings.
The Coral Way area is best known for its historic urban
boulevard along SW 22nd Street (Coral Way). One of the
main thoroughfares between Coral Gables and the City of
Miami, Coral Way passes through the City of Miami
between SW 37th Avenue and Brickell Avenue. The Coral
Way Corridor began in 1922 with citrus lined streets;
later growing to have streetcar tracks down the center
of the road. In 1929, a Roadside Beautification Program
was started, and 1200 Banyan trees were planted along
the median of the boulevard. Today, Coral Way remains
one of the most beautiful corridors in South Florida.
The Coral Way NET Office works closely with area
residents, merchants and neighborhood organizations in
an effort to actively address issues of concern. NET
also works closely with the neighbors to enhance the
community through events and beautification projects.
The Coral Way area has many active Homeowners’
Associations that work with the NET office to enhance
the quality of life in the area. Some of the
Associations involved include: Shenandoah, The Roads,
Silver Bluff, Vizcaya-Roads, Coral Gate,
Parkdale-Lyndale, South Miami, Bryan Park, Golden Pines
and Brickell.
