Leaders in the world of thought may lament the passing of home life elsewhere. But in Coral Gables the American home is at its finest and best. This city” of sixteen square miles in the choicest portion of the Florida Tropics possesses in super- lative degree all those features which make for the highest type of living. It has an extraordinary endowment of beauty and climate. And this has been enhanced by the construc- tion of waterways, broad boulevards, Jjovely plazas, winding driveways, parks and playgrounds as romantically beautiful as tropic isles in summer seas. golf cour- ses. tennis courts, bridle paths and great outdoor plunges. property is fully restricted, guaranteeing the best of neighbors. Little wonder that Coral Gables home - makers are drawn from every state. Shrewd investors realize that where development is rapid and of the highest grade and the discriminating people of America elect to make their homes, profits are bound to be large. Many fine profits already have been taken down on Coral Gables properties. = Still greater opportunities are bound to follow as the $100,000,000 development program marches ahead. The new Riviera section now offered the public at pre-development prices af- fords the investor~ an exceptional oppor- tunity”. For full information regarding this unit, as well as other portions of Coral Gables, either as home or invest- ment, clip the coupon below. There is no cost and no obligation. It is well to re- member, however, that Coral Gables is noted for pushing its vast developmenrt programs rapidly to completion, and pre- devolopment prices in the Riviera will not last long. ' The proposed University of Miami, the Miami-Biltmore Hotel now nearing completion, the Coral Gables and Miami- Biltmore Country Clubs, the Mahi Shrine Temple and sports center, churches and schools, vwrill all make for a home life rounded and complete. Here one can live in a beautiful home, n the midst of a satisfying many-sided social life, yet be only a few minutes by automobile or street car from the busi- ness center of Miami.
