We are very proud to be a part of bringing Gables Village to life in our City,” said, City of Coral Gables, Mayor Vince Lago. “We have never seen a project of this magnitude, receive such praise since it was first introduced to the City. MG Developer understands the importance of building residences that fall in line with our City’s rich history, tradition and aesthetic values, which our City is known for. We are all eager to see this vibrant community come to fruition.” 

The $50 million development will be completed by 2024 and will pay homage to George Merrick’s legacy, and original vision, for this parcel of the City Beautiful in a classic, yet modern way.  

“We are so excited about opening our first showroom as we get closer to breaking ground on Gables Village,” said Alirio Torrealba, CEO, MG Developer. “I want to give a special thanks to our partners that entrusted in us. These partnerships solidify our vision for building luxurious residences in one of the most sought cities in the world. We are excited about Gables Village, the City’s future and growing our partnerships,” 

“This gallery provides buyers with a preview and chance to see, touch and feel all of the modern touchpoints and luxurious finishes they can soon find in their home. It will truly inspire people to want to be in Coral Gables and be part of this new luxurious enclave.” 

Located at 2990 Ponce de Leon Boulevard, the new Gables Village gallery is now open Monday through Friday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., Saturdays, from 11:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. and Sundays from 12:00 to 4:00 p.m. You can also schedule an appointment by calling 786.833.6398. 

The project itself is located at 535 Santander Avenue and will include townhomes, duplexes, lofts, flats and an archway with raised residences above ground level, creating a distinct welcoming feeling into the Gables Village enclave. It will be set throughout 17 lots, replacing the existing rental apartments bordered by Malaga Avenue, Santander Avenue, Segovia Street and Hernando Street.  

Inspired by Merrick’s seven villages, Gables Village will be built in a Mediterranean Revival-Style Architecture, designed by De La Guardia Victoria Architects & Urbanists, and bordered by gardens inspired by the alcoves in the Plaza de España. Units will vary in style and sizes including, one-bedroom flats to four- bedroom townhomes that range size, from 1,750 sq. ft. to 3,100 sq. ft. The village will also boast recreational amenities, including a multipurpose room, a pool, and a Wellness Center for residents to enjoy. Construction for the project starts in the Fall of 2022 and will be completed in 2024. 

“We take a lot of pride in building in the City Beautiful and the communities we build are for the people that enjoy the sophisticated lifestyle Coral Gables has to offer. We develop luxury residences that inspire, and this new gallery does just that. As soon as you walk in, you feel in awe and right at home at the same time,” added Torrealba.  

MG Developer, led by Alirio Torrealba, is the City’s most active residential developer having completed its newest project, Althea Row, which nearly sold-out in less than 90 days. MG will soon wrap-up its Biltmore Square community, as it completes Biltmore Row, the 10 exclusive townhomes featuring a total of 5,561 square feet each, with elaborate coralina-stoned entryways that trace back to the heritage of classical design elements found in Spanish colonial architecture.
