"Join Dade Heritage Trust and former Coral Gables City Commissioner Ralph Cabrera on Sunday, Sept. 21, 2025, for a fascinating ride through history! We’ll explore George Merrick’s grand entrances – ornate gateways built a century ago to welcome visitors to the “City Beautiful.”
These iconic entrances are more than architectural gems; they reveal the political and historical forces that helped shape South Florida. Along the way, you’ll uncover surprising stories, including Merrick’s role in the construction of the Tamiami Trail, a road that forever changed the region’s landscape.
Bring your bike, your curiosity, and your sense of adventure!"
