History of University Estates

University Estates developed during Coral Gables’ mid-century residential expansion. The wider city began taking shape in the 1920s under George Merrick’s planned-community vision, with landscaped streets and a strong architectural identity. University Estates reflects a later phase of residential growth in the area, as Coral Gables expanded around established institutions, including the University of Miami, founded in 1925.
